Ray, I don't think this station has a name yet. As  far as I know it was just playing recordings of another station.

I have the carrier here directly but no detectable audio yet at 2110 UTC
2240 UTC I have some weak audio now....sounds like conversation
Strong carrier but seems undermodulated....too much static crashes make for tough copy....sounds like an OM talking now
2310 UTC Hearing music now....shazam says "If You Ever Come Back"-The Script
2313 UTC "All I Want Is You"-U2
(Frequency is 6965.2ish here)
