Captain Morgan Shortwave 6925 AM
« on: July 29, 2012, 0235 UTC »
7/29/12, 6925 AM
0148z: Cee-Lo "F**k You" song mixed in with another rock song I can't ID, plus a clear Northwoods Radio voice and CW IDs.
0157z: "Black Is Black" Los Bravos, bits of various songs, Kinks "You Really Got Me", Beatles "Hippy Hippy Shake" Roy Orbison "Pretty Woman", still not sure which station I'm hearing, seems to be AM mode.
0233z: Captain Morgan Shortwave ID's after long set of bluesy tunes.  Good signal to east coast web tuner.
0236z: Not sure if still Captain Morgan - 6925 AM back up with Ten Years After "I'd Love To Change The World", then off, no ID heard.

Listening on and off since 0155 to what sounded like a sketch, talk, then music until 0233 what was probably an ID something about "radio" a woman giving a g mail address and 0234 off.

Could just tell there was a program there.
