Bits and pieces of audio on 6925 kHz USB.  Extremely strong carrier signal on 6927.6 kHz causing destructive heterodyne QRM until you drop the bandwidth down.

Seems to have signed off at 2138 or so.
U.S. East Coast, various HF/VHF/UHF radios/transceivers/scanners/receivers - land mobile system operator - focus on VHF/UHF and 11m
