Thanks for the broadcast whoever you were!

Seems to be playing a loop of some instrumental music
0146 UTC I'm hearing some thump thump now. Weak fluttery signal
The thump thump may have been the Link-11 ute. Maybe moved to 6950USB?
Hearing some Jimi Hendrix lead guitar at 0154 UTC and that damn Habana spur is QRMing
0201 UTC "Old Mexico"-Merle Haggard
0205 UTC "The Rain Song"-Led Zeppelin
0212 UTC COOLAM jingle!, then a bluesy rock tune
0222 UTC CoolAM ID, email address
Great program tonight! Didn't know CoolAM could rock this hard!
Thanks for the program CoolAM and relayer!

Polka time on 6875.8 KHZ AM at 2226 UTC tune in!!! S8 here in Western MA
2234 UTC Clear ID as "Radio Dr. Tim...free radio from Germany" Also gave email address, but I didn't catch it.
Right before that Chicken Dance sounding polka, they gave address again.... maybe doctortim@t-online.de
Nothing like a good round of Polkas to start off the evenings activities! Reminds me that I played the accordion when I was a youngster. I was also drafted to play the tuba in Junior High School. I later got to play the tuba in the All-State band at Springfield Symphony Hall. So much for repressed memories
Hmmm, all ID's and all polkas, all the time
Chris L...fortunately no known photos of me playing the tuba have survived from that era. At least I don't have one anyway, but I do have a photo of me playing the accordian. Have to find that one.....

From 2125-2145 UTC I've been getting a weak carrier on 11428.3ish KHZ but no detectable audio. Not sure if this is it, but I am getting hints of audio since 2145 UTC. Sadly, no copy
2152 UTC I'm getting music now...maybe "Sweet Child of Mine"-G'N'R?
2158 UTC CW now...maybe CZ beacon again?
2211 UTC The unmistakable sound of the bass riff on "Radar Love"-Golden Earring
2221 UTC CW?
2230 UTC I give up! My ears are bleeding.....
I assume that the signal is bouncing somewhere else.
Thanks for the test xmsn Channel Z!
