Northern Relay Service 6925 am mode 2:20 UTC 2/24/12
« on: February 24, 2012, 0231 UTC »
Buried in noise, slowly fading in at 2:20 with music, then mention of ID.

Nostalgic musical numbers.

Crashing static. Only coming through in bits and pieces at 2:30, more music.

Anti-pot PSA parody at 2:38 "...marijuana can lead to psychological..."

Station ID at 2:42 "Northern Relay Service...the program is called 'Cruising Altitude.'"

Couple of techno tracks until 2:52, then voice messages, unintelligible.

Strange whistling QRM at 3:00

QSL address at 3:04

Theme from "Deliverance" at 3:09

Noted since 0221.
Some music sounding like generic 60's or 70's TV show themes.  Ment "...wonderful world of(?) television..."
Have not heard an ID yet.  Generally noisy, some occasional peaks to S8 w/ good audio.
99% sure of a Northern Relay Service ID at 0242z, then into dance mx with a pounding beat.
By 0304 faded down to noise for the most part.

Thanks NRS!
