Title: Radio Marti 14517 AM 2028 UTC 29 SEP 2022

Yeah, that is 14517KHz. S9+10 signal. Spur? Image? Off frequency?

Did not have a chance to check other frequencies before off air at ~2030z. Radio Marti can be a powerhouse signal in FL, but I somewhat doubt S9+10 overload of my Airspy HF+D SDR.

Have you been around long enough to recall the pirate station, "Radio Marty"?

Not ringing a bell here. I have been a SWL/HF enthusiast for many years, but I did not get much into pirate radio listening until like 2010 or so.

This was well before that. The op used to send out hand drawn QSL's of a little guy showing another man around the transmitter room with a huge transmitter in the background with a caption that said "I am Marty, and this is my Radio!"
