AM signal, around SIO 444.  S5-S6 signal level.  Sounds like an older Dragnet episode....not sure if its one of the radio episodes or TV episodes.

1534 UTC interviewing the mother of the teenage dope-seller
1544 UTC "a steady supply of obscene literature"
1600 UTC strong carrier het on 6923.8 kHz making listening in AM mode a bit harder.  SIO 433 now
1601 UTC "dead boy report" "body was found in a gutter"
1605 UTC dramatic music
1612 UTC talking about interviewing people at a bar "left the bar at about 1:45am"
1623 UTC "the subject was tried and convicted of manslaughter"
1624 UTC Dragnet theme song "the story you are about to hear is true" "NBC brings you Dragnet"
1625 UTC "a police officer has been shot"
1633 UTC gunfire
1634 UTC "James Vicars, murder suspect, died almost instantly"
1653 UTC audio difficulties, another Dragnet episode starting "for months helpless citizens have been robbed...beaten senseless...kidnapped"
1719 UTC "attention all units suspect is headed east on Wilshire Blvd" siren and tire screeching sound FX
1720 UTC more dramatic music, police radio chatter
1723 UTC Fatima cigarette ad "smoke the best of long cigarettes, smoke Fatima!" then the start of another Dragnet episode
1725 UTC long-distance telephone call to Murphy 761 being placed through several operators (complete with in-band signalling!)
