XLR8 on 6925 USB with a nice S9+10 signal. Car alarm interval signal to start with, then "XLR8" robot-echo announcement and into hip hop.

Getting hammered by religious preaching in USB. I can hear a carrier underneath with some music.

Just moved to 6945 at 0245 UTC. Was playing Bjork. Now into an old 80's tune. Good S8 signal.

Report via IRC is that this station is X-FM. Really nice S9+10 signal with what I would call IDM (intelligent dance music).

I am hearing it here in the Boston burbs. It's at least S7, perhaps peaking to S9. Very strange.

There is slow speed CW being heard underneath the 6916.6 signal. The CW is weak, but definitely there. 2344z.

Just tuned it in for the first time. I have the frequency as 6916.6 and it's maybe S3, possibly S4. Was an empty carrier but now it has some really bizarre modulation that I can't even describe. Echo-y feedback kind of noise that ends with a more pronounced 1-second data burst, then back to empty carrier.

Any of the amateur transceivers, like an IC-718, will make and excellent communications receiver. The receiver in the IC-718 is really not any different from the IC-R75.
