I just barely heard it with feeble audio that sounds like industrial dance music, why do they bother when Wolverine is on, R2000 & dipole.  
Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, 7mhz backyard dipole, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com

UnId, 6950AM, 0130 - 0137, 3/8/15.  On with a couple of old "numbers" call up, instrumental music - several abrupt song changes before going off.

Fair signal.

6949.5 - 6950, 0156, 3/8/15.  Beatles songs ("Revolution," Don't let me down", among others) and Paul Harvey "the rest of the story"  No ID as of 0218

Not sure if this is the same station or not, but they're loud here in Iowa with The Beatles 'Revolution' and a clip from Paul Harvey.

Looks like they're around 6949 kHz. SIO 444.

Thanks for the show!
