UNID 6940 USB 0218 01 July 2017
« on: July 01, 2017, 0221 UTC »
Sounds like those for the Emergency Broadcast Service interspersed with YL voice. Too weak to understand what's being said.
0226 Mellow tune, YL vox
0231 Pia Zadora, The Clapping Song
0234 back to the EBS stuff
0235 "Tell Me Something Good" Rufus feat. Chaka Khan
0237 song cut off
0238 back on, same song
0239 more EBS sounds with YL announcer
0240 off?

S7 and steady here on the AL coast.  I'm hearing what sounds like a standards-type tune with a YL singer.  Can't ID it with SoundHound though.

0232 The Clapping Song (Edit: Pia Zadora?  That's Pia Zadorable! Ha ha.  Ahem.)
0234 EAS tones and YL announcement
0235 Tell Me Something Good - Rufus
0237 off and back on with EAS over Rufus
0239 EAS tones and YL announcement
0240 off or faded out
