Strong signal, but getting killed on the LSB by a DSB Link-11 signal centered on 6947 kHz (covering 6943 kHz to 6950 kHz).  Basically forced to listen in USB mode.

Captain!  Move up 5 kHz or 10 kHz so we can listen in pure AM mode :D

Excellent!  Moved down to 6924.4 kHz - much less QRM down here....sounding great in AM mode at 2328 UTC

Tuned in this evening on 6925AM at 2327 UTC. Music by male with electric guitar and piano mixed in. Tough copy due to an S5 noise floor. Possible ID heard at 2337. Lost signal thereafter. SIO=353/2.
