Hearing the usual moaning and groaning and the creepy piano music in the background, so it look like it back on the air.. Sure miss the moaning and groaning lol.

He was on 9330 and 9395 at the same time (1800Z ish) earlier today.

"You're going to die. There is nothing you can do about it. Send me your money and you'll have pie in the sky." is the standard formula.

It's been working for millennia, since the first shaman figured it out as a way to get chicks and choice cuts of meat w/o having to hunt for dangerous animals or fight with next band over for the booty to get the booty. Ralph is carrying on what is probably humanities first real profession, fleecing the bewildered and frightened. It beats the Hell out of fighting with a leopard for a tough old zebra carcass or those big guys down by the waterhole for the women.

Interesting, will have to listen to the two frequencies..

Until WBCQ fires up that fancy 500 kW transmitter for the flat earthers, it seems that 9330 is now fully AM mode (after being carrier+USB only for a long time) and on 24 hours a day with Stair. That means that screaming Terry Blalock, my favorite HF evangelist who used to be on 9330 every evening, is doing his thing on 7490, which is both stronger and better modulated. Now I can understand every other word instead of every sixth or seventh.

They need 500KW and a rotatable antenna BECAUSE the earth is flat.

Anyone remember when Al Weiner beamed his WBCQ programming into space for months hoping alien civilizations would hear it? That was a great moment in broadcasting.

Sometimes I think that fella took the brown acid at Woodstock?

[Josh]

If I ever get a weinar dog his name will be Al.

WBCQ should install an NVIS antenna at least for 5130 so listeners closer in could have a good signal.

That be nice!

When they initially started broadcasting on 60 meters, their antenna acted like an NVIS one. When they improved (replaced?) it later on, the signal went longer.

I wonder if this was a recent change? I was unable to copy this station until this past winter, but although it's never strong and generally more like 5129.8 than 5130, it's been fairly regular in the evenings when I bother scanning 60m. (In my QTH, between the ever present high noise that cuts off at 5150 and the fact that the handful of signals that I can receive are North American, it's seldom worth my while to hunt for anything in that band.)
