WTPR popped up on 6930.6 KHz AM at around 1435 UTC. S8 signal, moderate fading. Strange monologue about radio, then talk about tire pressure, and what happens when various DXers neglect it. WTPR Tire Pressure Radio ID at 1443 UTC.

Pirate Radio Boston, first on 6925 KHz AM and then QSY to 6949 KHz. Holiday show. Good S9 signal, modulation was slightly low but seems a little better a few minutes in.

There seems to be a station in AM playing dance music, but in the noise for me. Maybe S3 or S4.

Dance music showing up on 6925 KHz AM at 1859 KHz; very good S9+20 signal. Heavily accented DJ talking about his Facebook page and "see you next time". Sounds like a relay of a webcast or podcast.

Have a station down in the noise, but starting to pop up slightly, at 2226 UTC. No ID yet. Started out maybe S2 or S3 but took some peaks to S6 within the last couple of minutes.
Edit: off at 2227 UTC.

Utility / UNID 6906.1 KHz USB mil/DHS ops 2136 UTC+ 11/30
« on: November 30, 2013, 2138 UTC »
First spotted by several on the #pirateradio IRC channel, we have some USB comms in American English on 6906.1 (approximate) USB mode that sound like they could be a US military exercise. Tracking simulation with callsigns including TORINO, CORVETTE, KILO, HELLCAT 53, WOODPECKER, VOLCANO, CITY HALL and perhaps others. Speculation on #wunclub is this could be USS GEORGE H.W. BUSH (CVN 77) training/testing activity off of Florida. Thanks to mco, N2UHC and Token for help.

Utility / UNID CANFORCE 6855 KHz USB 2100 UTC 11/28/13
« on: November 29, 2013, 0159 UTC »
Right at about 2100 UTC I happened to see some quick USB comms on the waterfall on 6855 KHz. Replaying the conversation, which lasted just 30 seconds, it seemed to be CANFORCE with some kind of air-ground check-in. I caught some quick presumed CANFORCE activity here back in February of this year.
I can't quite understand the callsigns being used. They speak rapidly and with a (again, presumed) Canadian accent. Here is the clip in case anyone can recognize the call signs:
