Strong jamming in the Midwest. Can't even hear the station when they move due to the jammer following them.

Band-Aid Radio moved up to 6960 due to massive jamming here in the Midwest.

Late to the game. Nice signal tonight, but I only caught the Looney Tunes theme music & Porky Pig saying "Thaaaaat's all, folks" on 6945U. Off at about 0339

I feel like 6900-7000 is the only other HF "freeband" that there is excluding CB in 27-28 Mhz.  It would make some sense to classify certain bands where pirates exist, like this one, and put them in their own band category.  Idk, just some thoughts.

Yeah -- overall this was pretty miserable. I caught 45 minutes of the cat and mouse game until all was lost.

This makes for pretty painful listening:
