UNID 6940 USB 2237 UTC 28 Dec 2017
« on: December 28, 2017, 2237 UTC »
 :o  Strong in foot hills, little fading. Sounds like maybe Zeppelin ? :-X
Gaps in program, not sure if a sign off. No ID, that I caught as of 2251 UTC
Back with "Girls x 3" at 2203.
As an engineer, this is not a amateur , sideband filter has a nice broad signature to 5 kHz!  No ordinary ham rig. Getting it all OUT, or as much as practical on shortwave!

Just ID as "Unidentified Radio", male and female voice.
Back to listen at 0035, stronger signal.  Giving same ID ,but signal quite a bit stronger now. Real cool Pirate station Man. ::)
