Intermittent voice, too weak to understand it.
Update: 00:37 sounds like a conversation, but not english. i don't think it's a broadcast. Thought it might be at first.

It's the Peskies on LSB bleeding into the USB band pass.

The intermittent voice is a peskie, or "Pescadore". They're freebanders or fisherman that use the 43 meter band frequencies....usually LSB. There is one now on 6925 LSB in Portuguese.

Thanks! I appreciate the information. This is something new to file away in my dusty old brain.
Feel free to leave or move or delete this thread whichever is preferred.

They can fool you, some of them play music when they're bored or just screwing around. They'll also make fun of the North American pirates. They're out in the middle of the ocean with a lot of time on their hands.

Ever wonder if, somewhere out there, there's a Peskies Website, where they post messages to each other, wondering and complaining about those unknown weirdos playing music and saying odd things on their frequencies for yacking about fish and linguica?

They've been known to make fun of certain pirates who run a lot of power on the air after the pirate signs off. What's a radio pirate going to do to them? Row out in the ocean and punch them in the nose?
