Radio New Zealand Int'l is on 6170 at this time. Are you sure you're not hearing them? (It doesn't sound like their normal programming, to be sure.)

EDIT:

Radio New Zealand on 49 meters just before noon local time would be an amazing DX catch. And possibly get me arrested for violating several laws of physics  ;D

Tuned in at 0005 UTC with Bill Withers' "Do It Good" in progress  S9 in NY with atmospheric noise.  Thanks for the tip everyone.  I guess as more international SWBC stations leave shortwave, the pirates will occupy their vacant frequencies.  This will certainly make the 49 meter band more interesting.  Jimi "All Along the Watchtower" at 0014 UTC.
