I heard him in there as well choat but it was pretty difficult. I went back to listening to Radio True North on 6935. I did hear The Cranberries - Zombie. Love that song! Thanks Turtle Head.

6925 USB SIO 222-322

Weak signal occasionally fading up above the noise.

04:04z began fading in
04:08z unknown song with male vocals
04:12z 'Space Age Love Song' - Flock Of Seagulls
04:23z "...Turtlehead..."
04:25z 'Zombie' - Cranberries
04:43z faded out

Audio (7min file edited for fade ups): http://archive.org/download/ShortwavePirateRadioCont/TurtleHeadRadio6925Usb0404z-0443z06-25-12Edited.mp3

Thanks THR! :)
