Yeah Man Radio 6925.8 kHz AM 1558 UTC 1 Sep 2017
« on: September 01, 2017, 1558 UTC »
Carrier popped up at 1558 UTC, frequency seems to be right around 6925.81 kHz or 6925.82 kHz [note: seems like there's some drift, see the logs below]  Music started right at 1600 UTC.

1600 UTC - Steely Dan - Deacon Blues
1601 UTC - S4-S5 signal with some noise and selective fading
1602 UTC - music seems to be muffled a bit, on the waterfall the LSB is much stronger than the USB
1604 UTC - another fade down into the noise, then back up to S4
1608 UTC - Steely Dan - Peg
1609 UTC - switched to LSB mode on one of the VA remote SDRs and it sounds better in LSB mode
1610 UTC - carrier is slowly drifting down in frequency, started closer to 6925.9 kHz, then hung around 6925.8 kHz, now..
1611 UTC - carrier at 6925.77 kHz or 6925.78 kHz, maybe stabilized a bit?
1612 UTC - another fade, now looking at the carrier on the waterfall but very little readable audio
1613 UTC - bits and pieces of audio, sounds like more Steely Dan
1614 UTC - not sure how to describe the audio, "undermodulated" is the first word that comes to mind
1615 UTC - suddenly clear audio, hearing guitar riffs
1618 UTC - now just a carrier, no audio heard
1619 UTC - OM "Happy Labor Day everyone" - OM thanking for reports, signing off, QRT at 1619 UTC

About an SIO 333 at 1602z.

Looking at the carrier, this is probably our UNID #2 from yesterday, which later ID'd as Yeah Man Radio.
