I'm going with "Childish Radio, WCBT" based on your recording Chris.

By chance I came across a man (in American accented English) calling for "any station" on 6910 KHz USB at 2022 UTC. He self-ID'd as KGD34 (phonetically). This should be SHARES NCC in Arlington VA. It does not appear he made contact with anyone. Thanks to Chris S. for research.

Decent S5 signal with moderate fading here at 1920 UTC. Just ended a dance song. Then some dead air.

It seems like it's an Animal Collective marathon (or similar bands). Fading between S7 and S9+20 here. Real nice show.

S9 in the Boston burbs at 1932 UTC. Playing some kind of rap/hip-hop sort of thing.

Nice strong carrier, solid S9, at 0022 UTC (1/27). But audio is low and kind of muffled.

Very loud S9+10 signal here in the Boston burbs. "Stop! In the Name of Love" by The Supremes ending at 0211 UTC (1/26). Then into another Motown style song I don't recognize (not really my genre).

ID heard at 0058 UTC (1/22). Signal is taking some long, deep fades but has peaked as high as S7 or S8 for brief periods.

SDR - Software Defined Radio / Re: ADS-B aircraft transponders

« on: January 17, 2013, 0135 UTC »

Tonight I've joined the ADS-B club too. Late last week I ordered two of the R820T units from NooElec. They arrived today. I got rtlsdr and dump1090 working together on Ubuntu 12.10 64-bit.

A rough outline is here:

Band went long right at about 0122 UTC and the signal just dived. No meaningful copy now.

« on: January 16, 2013, 0119 UTC »

Tuned in and heard a country song trailing out, and then Radio Vixen International ID by a female (computer voice?). Then into Jimmy Buffet "A Pirate Looks at Forty". Good S9 signal here.
