Clandestine Stations / Radio Tamazuj, 6005 kHz, 01 MAR 2020, 0334 UTC
« on: March 01, 2020, 0336 UTC »
ID per eibi schedule, which is generally reliable, playing music. Not very strong, I'd say SIO 222 at best with QRM from RHC on 6000, although that's not nearly as obnoxious as it can be.

Shortwave Broadcast / Voice of Indonesia, 3325 kHz, 29 FEB 2019, 1352 UTC

Excellent reception of a station that generally is little more than a trace at my QTH. I had to get on Token's SDR to confirm that it wasn't some local mixing product, because during the daylight hours I have those all over the 2-4 MHz range of the band. It faded fairly rapidly as the sun rose (you don't hear it in the video but I did copy a clear station ID at 1357z, and already the signal had dropped an S unit by that time) but I'll take it. Just 10 kW power per short-wave dot info and the 2020 WRTH book.

Copying their "Saturday Night Requests" program, currently a tune by Mark Knopfler. Signal is fair to good, I'd say SIO 333.
0646 heard my name shouted out, a result of my checking into their Facebook group. It went kind of quick so I'm not sure if they were saying anything more to me than "hi."

Shortwave Broadcast / Radio Madagasikara, 6135 kHz, 29 FEB 2020, 0352 UTC

Also copied on 28 FEB at 0412 (that's the video link below), but signal is better tonight, probably SIO 344. I was able to confirm this by comparing to audio of another Radio Madagasikara frequency (5010 kHz) on a kiwi SDR in South Africa, which was also copying 6135 well. It sounds like it's playing the same music tonight.

North American Shortwave Pirate / Ballsmacker Radio 6960 AM 0156 UTC 29 FEB 2020

0156 "Wildfire" Michael Martin Murphey (pretty good signal, about broadcast quality, this may be Ballsmacker Radio)
0200 "All Out of Love" Air Supply
0204 OM on the mic briefly but couldn't understand him (signal has taken a dive) into another song
0210 signal all but gone now, just a trace carrier
0213 heard what sounded like "Ballsmacker Radio" ID by YL voice on the KPH-HF kiwi SDR.
0225 signal was weak at KPH and is now almost gone. I've checked a few other SDR's but can't find the signal above the noise floor, and in most cases it's just the carrier. Thanks for the show.
0248 tuned back in at my own QTH, "Love is a Battlefield" Pat Benatar in progress, pretty weak but better than it was since the top of the hour
0249 jinxed it, it's gone again

We're probably all going to get a bunch of these. 
Might as well have one place for them all.
I haven't submitted too many reception reports because my rx is often fringey, but I did get one in for the show on 2-17-2019 (thanks redhat!):

0022 Music with OM talking, I think he's part of the music.
0038 SSTV (Robot 36):
Going thru my SSTV's (not going to bother with uploading and posting them all), one is a DAMN SKIPPY one. I will share this one that was sent at 0058z though. Thanks for the show!

Finding our favorite religious fanatic on the 25m band with the usual spiel. Signal isn't strong but I can make out some of what he's saying. SIO 222.
1757 signal improved to SIO 444 with some fades.
