I'm not really sure whether what I heard around 04:15 UTC on 6959.877 in AM is Zeppelin Radio, but I sure hope so!   Heard via my Perseus SDR in Masset, BC (150 km due south of Ketchikan AK), fed by a 150 m Beverage aimed due North.  I thought it sounded like Latin music, but really too weak to identify for certain.  I'd love to know whether they were on at this time or not!  73,  Walt

I just checked a Greek KiwiSDR and the frequency sure matches, and someone is on at 06:03 UTC on the offset frequency I measured.

Faded in around 2200, and out out 0600. Best around 0300 with music above the noise floor, mostly SIO 111 but sometimes 222.

You can see the signal on my daily annotated SDR waterfall, waterfalls are posted here: https://radiohobbyist.org/waterfalls/
