Schlager/ "beer hall" music.

2118 - heard some Slavic speech in USB right on top of the station's USB. It sounded like a QSO briefly then the pirate went off the air at the same time that the USB QSO ended. This is very strange.

Carrier is now off.

I can hear music on top of the sual jamming from North Korea. Could be a pirate trying to use the frequency.

Very surprised to hear this here. Reception is fair on German and Dutch SDRs.

0905 I heard some "pro-sounding" announcement with a deep male voice and then into Kim Wilde, "The Kids In America".
0911 "Your favorite... (faded down).." between songs.
0919 Announced "https://www.all80sjukebox.com//" I confirm that 6940 KHz is // the internet feed.
0925 Transmission is probably coming from the Benelux or northeastern Germany.
0934 "Commercial-free and clutter-free, this is all80sjukebox.com ." Into Whitney Houston, "Didn't We Almost Have It All?"

0422 UTC - tuned in just in time to her the ID as "Drunken Winky Radio" and into an AC/DC song. Frequency drifts with modulation - I'm guessing it's a LULU/Stretchyman special transmitter.
0427 UTC - ID again, into "Back in Black"
0444 UTC - Completed "Shake a Leg" then TX off.

Hearing a three-way in (I think) Portuguese. Unusual for me to hear peskies on USB but I guess it happens.
