Loggings > North American Shortwave Pirate
UNID 3223 kHz ~0320z
Pigmeat:
A LP AM'er in SW Ohio uses 1610. I hear them very occasionally,maybe once a year,tops. Their format is a lot like college station. It's usually a guy/girl announcing team.
Other than them coming in via skip,1610 in my listening area is all Latino.
weaksigs:
Still wondering about the possibility of a second harmonic!
Could be as that sounds like a typical AM broadcaster who
might've included some non-music programming.
Just a guess!!

It's pretty early (~2230) and this thing is still coming up. I've been listening abt a half hour and have been getting a "POSSIBLE" correlation between audio on the UNID and this stream: http://www.goodtimeoldies.webs.com/
Song tempos, song breaks, and some bass line has been jiving over this period.
It is a Part 15 near Rock Island, IL. I will be away from the RX for a while, and just throw this out as a possibility only...
Rafman:
It's likely an AM BCB harmonic...
If it's coming up now [before sunset], it clearly shows it is being affected by sunset...
JMHO but if it were really late at night, it could be Pacific, like Papua New Guinea...
BTW: Welcome to the group N8 !!!

Let me throw in this juicy nugget: The signal has been broadcasting since I first heard it the other night. Or, at least, any time I tune in, it's on. It's very faintly on right now, playing what sounds to be metal. I think this possible 24-hour play supports the skipped-AM signal. (Either that, or there's a dead pirate somewhere with his/her transmitter still running.)
On the other hand, I listened to the broadcast for more than an hour yesterday [see above] without hearing one station ID or commercial. I would expect both of those from an AM station in the States.
I should also mention here that all the songs, and that crappy movie I heard, are all in English. Not sure if that thickens the plot.
ps: Hungry Like a Wolf (Duran Duran) is playing right now, 0323z
