S9+20 in NE PA

Appears to be LSB with a carrier.  Kind of surprised it demodulates so well in AM receiving mode.

That's the magic of AM compatible SSB. :)
Bitte warten, Sternradio hat technische Schwierigkeiten. Der Sender raucht. Rauchen wird dich töten.

0347z - Music. SIO 434 via ATS-20+ and 15' active loop-in-window. LSB tuning. Some static crashing but otherwise a generally decent to good copy.
0355z - Sternradio ID

Thanks for the broadcast! :)
