Atlantic FM (relay?) 6925 AM 0115 UTC 08 Jan 2019
« on: January 08, 2019, 0121 UTC »
0120 - "Barbary Coast" by Weather Report, S7 on a Pennsylvania kiwi, very weak locally.  Possibly 2 stations on the frequency??
0123 - a bit of "Albatross" by Fleetwood Mac
0124 - "Herandu" Weather Report
0130 - OM with ID as 'you are listening to Atlantic FM, Tristan da Cunha, do you know where that is?".  rare dx indeed lol
0140 - YL with generic Oxford accent with ID, then into "Cannon Ball" Weather Report
0144 - om with 'you are listening to Tristan Radio, Tristan da Cunha.  you ever picked up Tristan da Cunha?', then off

Thanks for the show!

Please QSL!  That would be one for the wall of fame.

Some audio is fading up here & there, but still too weak for details.

Heard some bits of pop music. Sounded like a gruff-voiced male announcer at about 0148, then off. Have a recording if the op is interested
