Locomotive Radio 6925 AM 2310 UTC 16 Sep 2022
« on: September 17, 2022, 0038 UTC »
Very drifty carrier around 6925.2 kHz. S7 with the K3FEF KiwiSDR but very weak audio. First noticed around 2310 UTC but went off around 2315 UTC so I didn’t post. No idea when it came back on.

0035 UTC-Train whistle?
0042 UTC-Possibly music or talk?
0046 UTC-off then back on, no detectable audio now
0048 UTC-Drifted up to 6925.3 now
0053 UTC-Been nothing but a carrier since 0045 UTC and no sign of improving
0106 UTC-Music on the Uniontown, PA KiwiSDR!
0107 UTC-Train Whistle, looks like there is some FMing going on
0108 UTC-OFF
