Big S9+30 AM signal on 6925 KHz (then QSY to 6945 KHz) with "Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)". This signal woke the peskies up bigtime and they began QSO-ing and whistling along. Ops, please consider operations off of the Azores peskie net frequency (6925) which just kill us here on the east coast.

This must be what I was hearing, I posted in Mysterious Mystic by error. Super strong carrier but horrible pesca QRM & overall crappy conditions made for an entirely unsatisfying pirate radio experience.

Definite QSY to 6945 KHz. ID as "PBS" Pirate Broadcast System at 0113 UTC then into Van Halen. Another ID at 0018 UTC with announcer using reverb, says he's the new "eager beaver" on the airwaves. "The crack kicked in big-time" ID and into a trance-y track at 0123 UTC. Announcements might be live since this started on 6925, went to 6945, and announcer is mentioning 6945. Another ID by "John del Averto" (??) saying he's on crack and has to sign off quick. Off at 0127 UTC.

Suspect this is the PBS broadcast that went up to 6945 KHz, so merging topics.

Have PBS on 6925 and then 6945 with a S9 signal. Lots of QRN and a weird signal interfering on 6945.
