Recorder catch:

6925 USB SIO 222

Weak signal with most of the tx under the noise.

02:20z faded in or came on with pop song that had nice harmony for the chorus section
02:23z-02:40z signal buried under the noise
02:42z can hear someone talking, but can't make it out
02:43z train bell & whistle followed by "...this has been an air test (?) Night Train...just doing a little air test...(?)...73's..."
02:44z Off

Thanks Night Train :)

Hey Sealord, thanks for IDing this. I found it last night, too, started recording it at 0224. The announcement at the end was weaker for me and I couldn't copy it. I also had some pescadore audio throughout. Not sure, but I think it was off the air part of the time.

If the op is out there & interested, I also have an audio file.

Thanks for the test!
