Happy Hanukkah Radio 6935 AM 0108 UTC 8 DEC 2023
« on: December 08, 2023, 0108 UTC »
S6, tough copy tonight

Interval signal? (tones)
0113 Voice says "Happy Hanukkah" then "Miracle of Miracles" from Fiddler
0124 2000 Year Old Man Sketch, Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner. Signal improving somewhat, maybe an S7 now

My off-air recording. It's a little rough, but interval signal and station ID clearly audible:

0108 UTC Interval Signal on a kids toy xylophone (Signal is at or below the noise floor) I recognize Happy Hanukkah Radio!
0112 UTC Sounds like a child singing now. Reception is rough...a weak carrier in the noise. I can tell something there, but that's about it  :(

Songs are identified with Shazam if needed. I usually use KiwiSDR receivers. Reception from my QTH is using an SDRPlay RSP1A for SWL with a 40 meter band Inverted V at 40 feet. Kenwood TS-570D for ham use.
