Unid (Demo Radio Loop?) 6950 USB 0004 UTC 6 AUG 2023
« on: August 06, 2023, 0004 UTC »
Good but low signal, group sounds like they are a distance from mic.
0004 Faint music
0005 Sounds like a group of people, many repeating "50", maybe "AM Mode" and "join us"
0007 Perhaps a loop repeating same brief phrases
0008 Definitely a loop recording  "50, 50 or somewhere in between, please join us"
0010 "About 30 minutes from now...."
0012 OFF?
