THE VAULT 6965 AM was 6955 AM 2130 UTC 21 MAR 2022
« on: March 21, 2022, 2135 UTC »
2130 Hearing music just above noise and improving. Taking a guess it's The Vault based on yesterdays posts.
2138 Possible ID The Vault, not 100% sure though. Weak and a lot of noise.
2158 ID? into Reggae type tune. 2202z ID?, I'm going to need help with this one. S9 signal but a lot of noise.

2111 Thanks Vault Keeper!

2322 "Devil Inside" INXS to a game show skit, good reception to Vault "Good God" ID
2325 "Movin' On Up" Primal Scream
2327 ID to "Sand in my Shoes" Dido
2331 Unid song, reception about gone into noise

23:26 UTC - Not sure if this is still The Vault, but weak barely readable with music. It is breaking through the background noise at an S5 to S6. I can considerably reduce the background noise by receiving the station off of the Wellbrook loop antenna;
23:41 UTC - The Doors - Riders On The Storm;
23:50 UTC - Talking Heads - Same As It Ever Was (Once In A Lifetime);
00:12 UTC - Almost peaking an S8 and much better audio now with improved propagation;
00:16 UTC - Time pips heard followed by announcement. End of broadcast.
