Music, then an OM talking. SIO 333, but the modulation seems low?
ID at 2018, said it was a test transmission.

I am actually seeing deuling carriers, 400Hz apart 1945z

The one on 6925.0 has been there for a while... No audio though...

2035z ID PR Boston Test Transmission
2050z several IDs w/email "This is only a test transmission"
2101z "Games People Play"
2105z PRB IDs
2107z IDs "For equipment testing & adjustment purposes"
2108z playlist from bottom to top, listing "Games People Play"
2119z IDs several

This is the weirdest "test" I have ever had here, parsing 2 stations, 400Hz apart... 2 distinct carriers!!! I love SDRs!!!

If PRB is the one on 6925.3ish, then S5 here with trace audio.

2100 sounds like Joe South - "The Games People Play"
2121 looks like the test is over

Thanks PRB!

I think I have them here, but they are very faint, only occasionally popping up out of the noise.
