WMF? Family Radio 6924.55 AM
« on: November 05, 2011, 2135 UTC »
Very strong sigs +20 dB/ S9 555 / Beautiful audio
2117 - sign on with chimes
2120 - ID given, "WFM? (B or P) This is Brandy Norwood and you're listening to Family Radio"
2122 - several songs aired followed by more ID's

Very difficult to make out callsign. WMF is very distinctive but the last letter could be B, P or T.  Still on air.

Family Radio, 6924.7, 2207 - 2221, 11.5.11.  Dance music, joke call in to car dealer, brief talk, contemporary ballad, 2218 talk including "This is Family Radio." Piece on church bells, 2221 off.

I'm not sure what they used for call letters either.

First catch using a new 40 meters dipole.
