Radio Seagull via Piepzender 13585 & 7400 AM 1845 26 JUN 2026

I wasn't expecting to hear anything on 13585 but got an S7-8  signal via the Weston SDR with a version of "Are You Going to Scarborough Fair" by Brainbox, jingle IDs, then Alan Parsons Project "In the Lap of the Gods."

7400 slightly weaker with S5-6

Hello Henri

Peaking S9 on End Fed Antenna with Nice audio on 13585 AM, very good transmission clear.
On 7400 good carrier as well S7 to S8/S9 and good audio too

2019 music, 70's style rock
2028 OM "Every morning, every ___, every night  (YL) Seagull, (OM) right here" into more music
2039 ID by OM, broadcasting from ship called Jennie Bainton, and website, into "Straight from the Heart"
2042 song I don't know - almost sounds like Dylan
2046 quick jingle, into new song
2049 "Radio Seagull is commercial free" room for a bonus track
2050 new song

Is this still Seagull? - Yes!
I would greatly appreciate an EQSL sent to [email protected]
Chichester UK SDR
SINPO 35323  on 13585 bad fading, sometimes disappears; on 7400 44444 much better by 2034, had been bad QRM from 7390 but not a problem now.  The Chichester SDR oddly sometimes experiences QRM across the band.
My location: Standish Maine USA

Listening to 13585 kHz here in Southeast US and loving it!  Receiver is an old Sony CRF-1 and I'm using a whip antenna half the size of the original broken one.  Came across you at 0205z kind of weak and now at 0250z the signal is very good by comparison, at times SIO 454

Still going strong around 0330z

Mainly Using JRC NRD-525 with
