6925 Free Radio 6937 FM/USB 0437 UTC 7 Aug 2022

S9+10 with the K3FEF KiwiSDR but bad QRM from 6930 USB and link 11 on 6945 LSB. Narrowing the bandwidth filter helps significantly.

0437 UTC-Money by Pink Floyd
0439 UTC-Bodhisattva by Steely Dan
0445 UTC-Reelin' In The Years by Steely Dan
0449 UTC-Pour Some Sugar On Me by Def Leppard
0454 UTC-Unknown Music
0502 UTC-Next music too weak to ID
0507 UTC-Jump by Van Halen
0509 UTC-Switched to USB, now sounding much better
0511 UTC-SSTV “Not WDOG”
0512 UTC-SSTV “Free Radio” with the alien thing from 6925 Free USB
0513 UTC-SSTV “Not WDOG”
0514 UTC-SSTV “Free Radio” with the alien thing from 6925 Free USB

0515 UTC-SSTV


Thank you to Foxy3243, I am now listening with that KiwiSDR.

I apologize to 6925 Free Radio for thinking you were WDOG.

Getting some audio but not listenable - even after sifting through bandwidths / filters - very poor at my location.

0513 tuned into the tail end of an SSTV, into another one immediately following. Fast mode, MMSSTV not decoding
0514 another SSTV, slightly slower mode but still quick, MMSSTV still not decoding, heavy static crashes
0516 relaunched MMSSTV after figuring out there was a problem with the levels that couldn't be adjusted manually, but it was too late, nothing decoded, signal gone at 0516.

WDOG was experimenting with FM last night.

I know, but I am leaving as UNID for now since a station using FM was also heard last night giving it’s ID as “6925 Free Radio”. I think that “6925 Free Radio” and WDOG are probably the same station (same operator, same transmitter, different name) but some people disagree.

Never mind.
Using two different names for different transmissions is not a problem. Preferably, the op should move to a different frequency, or leave the air for some time.

Using two or several names inside a single transmission is no good. Even when including the mode (AM, FM, USB...) in the ID, for a station that uses different modes from day to day or in a single transmission. Operators, feel free to use several IDs, but use them well separated and without possible confusion inside any transmission. IDing you is a game, but be fair, don't change the ID inside any continuous transmission on a single frequency
