Captain Morgan SW also heard on 6925,0 approx., here in W. Europe on Sat. 16 of July at 02.09UTC with "Born to be wild" and other songs I don't know, one was "..funky music". Signal strong enough, but sounding badly so I could not copy the "Captain Morgan" part of the ID, only "shortwave at gmail dot com". By 02.23, it was evident there was an other station underneath, drifting enough to get a hum now. At 02.30 both stations disappeared.


I tuned around and found an other signal at 02.36UTC on 6899.3 AM with also "shortwave" in the ID at 02.41, but it was a weaker one, also announcing a (phone?) nr incl. 443 and gmail at 02.57, disturbed by SSB traffic on 6905LSB. So I tuned again elsewhere for a while (see under). I came back and heard a long ID at 03.43 but nothing better till the signal faded out under the SSB traffic and noise.


Captain Morgan SW heard again at 03.13UTC, this time on 6950,2 kHz, playing again that "..funky music" song, then an other blues and boogie programme. And again I could not copy the "Captain Morgan" part of the gmail address! Ended with scary noises at 03.42UTC.
