Good if not great signal into Colorado this very early morning, I'd say SIO 343, but it's Saturday night in New Zealand and they're playing their weekly all request program. My request will be coming up this hour. Hope the signal remains this strong or preferably becomes better.

Spy Numbers / V24, 6215 AM, 05 MAR 2018, 1500 UTC
« on: March 05, 2018, 1541 UTC »
Signal was weak but copyable. Not sure when V24 was last broadcast on the 5th of the month at this frequency and time, but I know from my own monitoring that it was not here in December, January, or February. It began with the same song that has been used on 6215 for the past couple of years ("Shouldn't Have..." Baek A Yeon feat. Young K) followed by message. The message was short and the transmission was QRT at 15:07:41.

0132 "Patron Saint o' Thieves" The Rumjacks
0133 deep fade
0135 back up
0137 "The Pot & Kettle" The Rumjacks
0142 "Pinchgut" The Rumjacks
0145 live performance, presumably by same group, but Shazam isn't identifying it. I can recognize that it's "Whiskey In The Jar," though
0149 another deep fade, but didn't last too long
0150 "Murder Shanty" The Rumjacks
0154 SSTV
0155 "Sober & Godless" The Rumjacks
0159 off

Shortwave Broadcast / RNZI 6115 AM 1250 UTC 03 MAR 2018
« on: March 03, 2018, 1309 UTC »
New frequency for the 1059-1258 bloc that's still labeled as transmitting toward Papua New Guinea, but was a big S9 signal here in Colorado. I recall that last summer that portion of the broadcast was very audible here in North America, from my own logs and those of others. Anyway, I found it playing music and wasn't sure what station it was until the QSY announcement at 1257. This is a brand new change to the schedule. I had looked up at their website just last night, and still had on my browser this morning showing 9700 for that time. When I refreshed the page, the new frequency appeared. Presumably this will be the case for the remainder of the b17 season, but with RNZI anything is possible.
