6925 KHz AM playing Pink Floyd UNID
« on: October 06, 2012, 0138 UTC »
Heard Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb after coming back from 40 meters checking conditions.  The song ended and station signed at about 0137. About S8 here.

Also heard here about S7.  Kind of noisy here, and it made the pilot detector flash on the rx a couple of times, but nothing steady.

Also heard on the west coast about S3 to 4. Just caught the tail end before it went off the air.
