SDR recording catch. Rather weak, I could hear some talking, possibly not EE. Perhaps this was Asian, one of the stations targeting China?

Also possibly on earlier, 6870 kHz from 0918-1000z.

I've heard faint piano music/talk occasionally in the 6970 range since the 90's, Chris. Normally it shows up about sunset.

The Asian aspect is something I never considered. I do start hearing CRI's West Coast oriented broadcasts on 6850 in the late summer/early fall.
