Mix Radio International 6948 USB 0020 UTC 5 Mar 2019
« on: March 05, 2019, 0021 UTC »
A big wide signal, but it seems to be centered around 6948 kHz, with Linda Ronstadt song.

0025 UTC: Another song started just as the signal took a dive with some deep fading.
0033 UTC: Signal's starting to build back up again here with a mellow '70s song.
0037 UTC: "Hey There, Lonely Girl" (can't tell if it's the Eddie Holman version or someone else)
0041 UTC: Maybe an ID? I couldn't hear it well enough, though. Then "Take the Long Way Home" by Supertramp.
0047 UTC: SSTV
0050 UTC: Sounds like music again, but the signal's back to treading water with the noise here.

0022 - "Long, Long Time", very weak, just above the noise and
            there could be another sig under this one...
0026 - another song by YL but can't make it out.
0029 - sig is up and down but caught a little of "Have You Seen Her?"

Thanks for the mx

Thanks for catching the ID! It was down in the noise out here on the West Coast.
