heard at 0716, music with low level modulation, on 6209.9 kHz

0808 same problem, and a bit of (very slow) drifting


Usually identified as King SW every Sat and Sun mornings by DXers far away from Benelux. I get an ID only one or twice a year. Low power/light mod, some drifting and non stop music without any salient feature, in my sense, do not make a positive clue about the ID. And 6210 is sometimes used by other stations. So I leave that one as UNID. 

I'm not sure King SW is quite low power. Looking to various logs for many years now, I'm thinking that, above the slight mod level, most of the power is radiated at low angles, so there is something like a skip effect even when the propagation is good at short distance.
