Thanks to an ID by Matt Blaze, I picked up Ball Smacker Radio broadcasting from "somewhere in the Northeast" playing classic rock on 6960 KHz.
Adjacent interference sounded like some kind of radar signal.

Thanks VOTL!
Reception S9 into KiwiSDR K9MQ, Chicagoland / northwest Indiana.
I tried to get my new Youloop / Airspy HF+ / SDRPlusPlus / Android phone combo running to tune this in, but by the time I had the software dialed in the transmission had ended. Still figuring out a few things, which I will write up in due course.

Just found Ball Smacker radio this evening. At the moment they have a nice 20 over S9 signal
into S.E. lower Michigan. Listening in on an IC-7610.
They are accepting reception reports to: [email protected]
This reminds me of the good old SWLing days.
