OK...thanks! I'll keep listening and maybe catch an ID...signal is good but fades and noise make for tough copy when the announcer is talking

on 6849.95
2119 extra weak, some music on rare peaks, trace most of the time,
2123 trying all the tricks here, 2126 better on second antenna !
well very hard to hear, but better
2130 talking, probably an ID, in E with US accent ?, 2132 music
2135 DJ, "Great balls of fire", 2137 "Video killed the radio star",
2140 DJ, sounds like Emperor Rosko, 2142 music
2144 lost in the noise

2219 music, DJ ?, music, 2222 trace
2224 M+W duo in F :  ..je vous rappelle l'adresse... (only that copied), music
lost by 2230       2235 trace again, audio under noise level

edit : must have been a relay of R. Mi Amigo Int. (from Spain, through SW relay in Kall), see on Saturday 25th, and that explains Rosko and the F announcement.
