2056 Very weak carrier, no audio. 6934.980 kHz, so I do not think this is AD149.
2108 Some trace audio, OM speaking? Hard to tell.
2116 Music?
2127 1 kHz audio tone?
2149 Talk now?
2152 Signal really starting to improve, thanks for the ID, DXAce!

This reception is direct here in the USA, using my 500 foot northeast directed Beverage antenna, and netSDR receiver.

I've got a carrier on 6934.979 with audio right at the noise floor as well.

22:33z can tell a male is talking, but too weak to make out what's being said
22:51z music/audio beginning to get above noise floor
22:59z can hear male talking again
23:00z carrier dropped/off
