Frequency: 6375
Mode: AM
Date: 05 Feb 2016
Time: 1540 - 1556 UTC
SINPO: 22222 with deep fades and static

Programme Details (all times: UTC)

1540 - many German songs - pop songs
       no announcer heard - signal fading
       up and down - audio barely coming in at
       times then fade back up - sort of phase
       shift
1555 - Dead Air (stop?) or faded out here

Signal was fading and out from 1602 to 1735 but hear a bumper similar via YL sort of like a old PAMS id mentioning something like'Radio Discovery'  @ 1731

PSE e-QSL if possible and thanks for the show. 73's and happy DX'ing

Have you heard any ID today?

I had the same reply. I understood also they have a problem with their name, already used by an international TV network.
