Good signal with weak audio - lots of static - 333 to 555

2328 - om talking
2329 - nice modulation when music is playing - signal boosted to 444
2329 - Being With You (I think)
2333 - announcer stated he is testing antenna
2335 - Pink Moon (now 555)
2337 - Road (more Nick Drake)
2339 - Long Cool Woman (fading down to 333 again)
2342 - Green River (signal still fading)
2344 - Hotel California (222)

Thanks for the new one!

Glad to see these guys move further up the band. 6911 kHz is in the Hurricane Net band in the Gulf. It's not unusual for hurricanes hitting Florida at the latitude of Palm Beach and further south to plow across the Everglades and not lose much strength as they emerge again in the Gulf.

Classy move, whoever you are.
