6950am, UNID
« on: September 18, 2011, 0101 UTC »
Hearing a nice S5-S7 signal with some deep fades here in Chicago. Came on right after the Wolverine show.
Sammy Hagar's "Heavy Metal" then in "Mama We're All Crazy Now" which I'm thinking is Quiet Riot.

ID was in there, but a little too distorted. Heard a second ID which seemed like it could be W...A...Zed...U

0118z - ID with email address for reports. Sounded like WAZU at mail dot com.
0123z - Metallica - nice

Fair to weak signal with some fading.

01:01z can hear someone talking, but can't make it out
01:10z can still just hear music
01:33z signal is improving
01:34z Off :(

Audio(~last 30secs.): https://www.yousendit.com/download/bHlDTG16TStYSHhMWEE9PQ

Thanks WAZU :)

UnId (so far), 6950.5 AM, 0110+, 9.18.11.  Music, just barely above the static floor.  Some talk a bit earlier but couldn't make anything out.

Off 0137 without ever getting much better.
