UNID 6974/6970 LSB 0109 UTC 6July14
« on: July 06, 2014, 0110 UTC »
0109 Mr Acker Bilk - Strangers on the Shore
0111 Aerosmith - Dream On frag
0112 A Parsons - Eye in the Sky frag
0113 OM tx and off? - reviewed audio and the tx here sounded non-pesc, and if it was an ID I can't pull it
0115 now on 6970 LSB with an instrl - like a heroic Morricone score tune
0118 more instrl mx
0121 off

After QRT at 0121, I note a very weak carrier here and some OM talk - pesc? - in the LSB.

S6 here

6974L, 0110 - 0114.  Music, "Oh yea", 0114 off

6970L, 0115 - 0119.  Orchestral music, off 0119.  Seems continuation of 6974 - same S6 and broadcast quality.

No talk or ID

Was S6 here, appears to be off @ 0114z
Seems to be back on 6970 LSB @ 0115z, up to S7.
I believe the same station came on 6955USB a couple of times between 0130 and 0200z, S7 signal.

Catching it here on 6970 LSB, with a S6-7 signal and good audio playing classical type music at 0118 and now quiet at 0121. Sounds like the same operator from last night. Hopefully he will ID one of these days soon. :)

Noted here as well on the SDR recording. Same details as the others. The 6974 LSB transmission was stronger than the later 6970 LSB transmission. I'm still unsure as to whether this is a pirate or pescadore.  The use of LSB makes me wonder if it is the latter.
