One report of a carrier making it over there around 6924.8, so you are getting there!

(I measured it at 6924.72 kHz FWIW)

Nice S8-S9 signal here in NY.  Pop song with male vocals at 2303 UTC.  Heard an ID just before the song.  First time logging of BBR for me.  Carrier is on 6924.7 kHz.  Professional sounding IDs.  Song at 2325 with lyrics, "I'm just a believer, that things will just get better".  Signal has improved.

In Wyomissing, a weak signal is unusable under LSB traffic, noise and fading.

Around 6924.70AM

Music can be heard, but not understood.

Had them S9 +10 with various pop songs I didn't recognize. Seemed to end transmission abruptly at 2330z.
