Family Radio 6924.6
« on: November 27, 2011, 0003 UTC »
Can hear a female voice, but cannot make out any content. 0003 Z

Heard an ID for <I think> Family radio at 0014Z. Signal is in and out of the noise in GA

Signal is much better at 0019----clear ID and talk segment.

I think its part of WMFP Radio. They're VERY strong here, coming in at about 10 over 9, but the signal cuts out from time to time. Transmitter issue?
Receivers: Elad FDM-SW2  r390a, WJ-8718, Microtelcom Perseus
Antennas: 65' sloping vertical, Pixel Technologies magnetic loop, Array Solutions SAL-30

Yes I have heard the WFMP ID also, although they are very weak here into Ohio. Turned antenna just to hear them at all. SIO 142. Nice selection of music.

Extraordinarily weak signal. Usually they're S9+20 or better, tonight barely S1, really just a carrier. I noticed very strange propagation from SWBC stations this evening as well.
