Since about 00:20z

ID as: "KPR Pirate Radio Ha Ha Ha ... Pirate Radio and we rock the Rockies"

ID announcer had quite a laugh!

off at 00:37z

Started at 6923.42 kHz
Ended at 6922.84 kHz

The drifting never stopped, had to constantly correct my receive frequency!

Updated per beaconman's note of the correct ID

I heard that Station also, the call was KPR
there were three or four IDs  and yes it did slide down the band.

Thanks, I'll make the correction.

90 second mp3 with ID at beginning, a bit of "Witchy Woman" and closing ID. Very noisy but audible: http://www.mediafire.com/?zziz2ijyiwj

Fair signal peaks, lots of sudden fades and pitch shifts or signal drifts. Thin audio but carries fairly well with weak signal.

(Gopher Stomp, TX - Palstar R30C on indoor homebrewed passive loop)

Audio for first 30 minutes, first half weak but not too noisy, latter half very noisy: http://www.mediafire.com/?j4zonggdjw3
