The Maritime Radio Historical Society has added some historical recordings to their website. One of these is the contact between USS Cassin Young and KSM on 21 November 2009. You can listen to the MP3 and even download it on this page:

On 21 November 2009 USS CASSIN YOUNG/NTTH contacted KSM on 12Mc with newly restored gear in its radio room. Signals were good and QTC1 was copied from NTTH. But in the middle of the exchange SS AMERICAN VICTORY/KKUI also called. For the first time in who knows how many years there was actual QRM on the 12Mc calling frequency. KKUI was asked to stand by. KSM later contacted KKUI. The op on board asked that their working frequencies be relayed to NTTH for a ship-to-ship contact but by that time NTTH was UNRAISE.
Lots of great stuff on this page.
