UNID 6925 AM S3 in NY

2256: Rap music but possibly a commercial mentioning Cheesesteaks
2257: Female screaming then a Nissan Commercial
2259: Commercial for the Winter Olympics starting February 8th only on NBC 12
2300: The broadcast is the audio from NBC TV, matching up almost perfectly what I am watching

UNID Super Bowl 52 pirate broadcast
6925 kHz 6.925 MHz
4 Feb 2018

2300 UTC - Super Bowl 52 coverage audio, fading up and down, some nice AM modulation on peaks
2310 UTC - signal took a significant dive during the introduction of the starting lineup for the Eagles
2311 UTC - now hearing the intro to "Crazy Train" with OM announcer mentioning "Kickoff Show"
2314 UTC - Johnny B. Goode
2315 UTC - Walter Payton NFL Man of The Year Award
2317 UTC - OM singing "America The Beautiful" [signal jumped up a bit, now S5]
2320 UTC - stand and salute for "The Star-Spangled Banner"
2325 UTC - QRM from pescadores really hammering 6925 LSB, sounding better in USB, listening in AM when possible
2327 UTC - coin toss, and the coverage for the Super Bowl continues with signal fading in and out
2339 UTC - seems to have switched to USB, although there's still a carrier on 6925 (maybe there's two stations going at once?)
2348 UTC - carrier on 6925.0 kHz still there, while the UNID is still on 6925 USB, does seem like there's multiple stations
2351 UTC - now a solid S5, peaking up to S7 at points....sounding much better in SSB vs. AM
