6925 USB
1415z: Faux Firedrake is back.
1430z: Occasionally peaking S7-S9 over S4 local noise. Audio seems pretty good - a little challenging to evaluate because the Asian stringed instruments are continually changing pitch due to vibrato and slide technique.
1440z: Annnnd faded to barely audible now.

Caught this on my recorder from this morning:

6925 USB SIO 323

Decent signal with little fade. Sounds like a computer generated ID at the begining, middle & end of the broadcast, but tough to make out with the low pitch. The middle ID sounds like it starts with "..greetings pirate (something).."

*11:07z-11:15z* Firedrake spoof

Audio(middle ID @ 3m59s into file): http://www.yousendit.com/download/WTNLU2V0R0ZnYVB2Wmc9PQ

Thanks! :)
