Likely Unknown Name Radio Network UNRN.  Hearing music with some fading on 6880 kHz / 6.880 MHz this afternoon on the Ohio remote SDR.  S4-S5 signal with decent modulation.  

At around 2146 UTC or so, a data signal appeared on the lower side band, 6878 kHz.  Signal strength has decreased a bit, carrier easily visible on the waterfall but modulation noticeably weaker.  Hopefully that will reverse itself in the next little bit.

Seattle signal report.  02:06 UTC - About 1.5 hrs before sunset here.

SINPO:  25411  Getting slightly more audio than carrier; enough to detect speech is going on.  Meter shows S3 with my RF gain set to 2db (increasing gain isn't helping right now; just pulls up the noise floor).



Pls qsl to rst111@protonmail.com ty!
