20th Century Fox Sounder several times, followed by ID by female, WTCR, Twentieth Century Radio.....

Good signal into North GA. (Sounds mysteriously like what I heard on 6930 a few minutes ago)

6950 USB
0242z: WTCR sign-off ID after hearing bluesy and jazzy tunes since around 0200z, seemed to be Christmas theme but not quite strong enough to ID anything for sure.

Really puny propagation.  Only pirate station I've heard in a couple of days and much weaker than the usual S9+ signal for WTCR.
