Deane, as John mentioned, SQM is virtually always present starting from our later evenings right through to the morning/post dawn period. Nome is only occasionally heard (pretty rare down here, perhaps a couple times a season, but regularly heard cochannel when I'm in Masset....exactly the same format, but one listens to the places that are reported on, and then there's a pause, and they start the loop over again with Sitka or Nome "Transcribed weather broadcast"...that's how you can be sure of the ID, other than the CW of course).....Walt in Victoria.
