European Pirates and Private Stations / UNID 6950 NBFM tentative 0501 UTC 17 FEB 2024

« on: February 17, 2024, 0505 UTC »

0501 UTC I'm hearing what sounds like very distorted music...no carrier to speak of...no luck tuning in on this old NRD-515. I suspect this might be an FM signal as I can't fine tune in USB or LSB. Somewhat less distorted in AM with the 6 khz filter. It is at best a fair signal...mostly in the noise and thin sounding audio
0508 UTC Definitely a song
Interesting!
0523 UTC Some minor fadeups where the AM signal is clearer, but still distorted

I moved this to European after reading a couple of earlier posts calling this NBFM. Curious!
I am hearing this directly from across the pond...
