Aborted overnight recording due to heavy storm noise from Ioway.  Took a listen after I saw Sealord's post and Bam!  Devil's Lullaby very weak in the noise but definite.

Thanks Biker!
Thanks Sealord!

Looks like USB with some carrier here.

2358 Carrier on, "The Weapon" ID by YL, song "Paper Money"?, show-like tune about becoming rich, Neil Young-like song
0009 YL talk abt free speech, "Don't Get Mad, Get a Weapon.  WPON the Weapon", OM talk abt voting, a meaningless choice
0010 OM song "We Need More", YL talk abt rights of the people not being violated, Beatles - "Taxman", more YL talk abt
       constitutional rights (starting to pick up some severe fading)
0019 OM ID "WPON" followed by shots, OM song "The Revolution's in the Air"?, YL talk abt constitutional rights
0024 unid song, Twisted Sis - "We're Not Gonna Take It"
0029 YL ID "WPON The Weapon", shots, and off

S9+10 here.
Thanks WPON!

Back on at 0059z, w/ ID, "You Piss Me Off", "Take the Money and Run"
Was prev noted as USB w/ a trace of carrier in previous transmission; this looks like USB.
Strength down significantly to S6, but audio quality seems better.

0159 Back on...
0236 ID, shots, and off

Recorder/Live catch.

NWR w/ J Savage with the "Throaty Coyote" show.  Very neat Native American roots music.  Featuring some "dual note" throat singing which is very cool!

Seemed to come on about 1121z with a great S9 signal.  Faded down to near noise mid-show but came back again to S9.

1222 ID, CW ID, 3 SSTV images all all Scottie 1 and heavily slanted but repaired okay.

Thanks Northwoods Radio!

0112 Carrier on and into unid song
0116 OM tx, ID and addy?  "...radio at..."
0117 OM balladish vocal
0122 Police - "Roxanne"
0129 OM tx  - poss ID; the op's voice seems new and unfamiliar
0131 YL vocal - pop song, familiar, but I can't ID it
0134 Promo? - with child's voice
0137 more OM tx; hard to hear still; "...radio towers(?)...", "...right now, he he...", "...hello to everybody out there..."
0149 "Never On a Sunday"
0153 off

Hugging the noise and still weak, but has been coming up since program start.
Some deep fades and occasional pesc QRM aren't helping.  Really need to review the audio here.

I listened to all the possible ID points, and there really is nothing definitive there.  I can make out a few words and phrases from time to time, but nothing which IDs this.  Op seemed laid back and friendly.

Thanks!  We tried...

I noted a carrier w/o audio dancing in and out of the SDR demod band between 0453z and 0456z.  This was after Blue Ocean went off and very well may have been part of his test.  I note no other audio in the rest of the overnight MP3 received here last night, FWIW.

The CW was also caught here on a recorder catch, at apparently good level.  I did not fully decode it, but the chars I know jive with Dimbulb's account.
