WENO Shortwave 6970 was 6975 USB 0036 UTC 22 AUG 2026
« on: August 22, 2026, 0036 UTC »
0036: music for a moment, then quiet
0036: AM carrier appears briefly, no modulation
0038: QSY 6970, at least, it sounds like 6975 station music "Halcyon And On And On" - Orbital
0043: ID, "Cowgirl" - Underworld
0047: "A little subculture out there" "A weird subculture" looping over music
0048: "Let The Chalice Blaze" - Thievery Corporation
0101: ID, more lively music
0112: "Extreme Ways" - Moby, a favorite of mine
0124: ID for Tangerine Radio (?rebroadcast)
0128: ID (WENO)
45444+

Thanks for the show! (Now 6 pirates on 43M at this time.)

Well, it's come to this: It's midnight and I'm listening to a heavy metal cover version of "The Wheels On The Bus Go Round and Round" on pirate short wave radio on Sternradio. Is life great, or what!?

Listening via the SDR in Shrewsbury, Vermont, which is receiving an S9 signal and fair to good audio through the noise ...

0045 UTC: "Cowgirl" by Underworld.
0048 UTC: "Let the Chalice Blaze" by Thievery Corporation.
0053 UTC: "Voodoo People" by The Prodigy.
0058 UTC: Sound clips from a broadcast into "Roygbiv" by Boards of Canada.
0101 UTC: Male-spoken WENO Shortwave ID into "Smiley" by Orbital.
0107 UTC: "Sweet Tides" by Thievery Corporation.

Thanks for the music tonight!
