Shortwave Pirate / OTR 13560 AM 1417 UTC 16 JUNE 2019

1417 Fair to good copy, fades. Presumed OTR. Skit with OM and YL.
1427 You are listening to the Adventures of Nero Wolf.

I've seen posts for this before, odd. A harmonic of 6770? Pretty close in freq. Or does that only happen in 3rds?

Utility / Station heard under WWV 10 mHz 2153 23 May 2019

« on: May 23, 2019, 2204 UTC »

2153z

Hearing what may be a Asian ladies voice under WWV on 10 mHz. Not WWVH. Also possibly a digital mode that sounds something like a SELCAL.

Faint but it's there. Is this an Asian time station?

Thought I saw a post about something like this recently but couldn't find it.

Faded out by 2200z. Getting a few more fade ups.

thanks
