Bits & Bleps - Shortwave Radio Service Testing

The new Shortwave Radio Service station just appeared on 6160 kHz at around 1528 UTC. They played a record by Yes and another record I couldn't identify, and then gave a few stations IDs, but then went off again at 1538 UTC.

Not a massive signal, but it was a strong as Channel 252 usually is here at this time of day in north west England, so it does look like they are finally testing.
