I am picking up a very strange station on 7540. 12/12/15
Male voice came on and stated equipment used then said back to the Skit.
New Pirate??
Very strong signal.
Nice selection of music.
Wish he would give us an ID!
-
Good signal here, not sure what this is.
2055 OM came on, said 25 watts, dipole at 30 feet, and back to the skit
2123 ID
-
S9
Here also, skit of some kind
2056 OM, we are Xmtting on 7540, dipole antenna. back to the skit
2103 OM, play some metallica, tune. music sounds great, good sig. S9+10
2112 Against the wind
2116 sig faded suddenly
-
I've been listening to this since 2054 UTC with S6 signal. Some kind of spoken word skit, then OM at 2056 UTC saying something about "7540 KHZ...dipole at about 30 feet", then back into skit
2102 UTC OM said something about "How about a little bit of ?...stupid skit...", followed by some heavy instrumental rock music(some spoken words during the song)
(Signal is above the high local noise level with really excellent audio on the music-spoken word is only partial copy)
2112 UTC "Against the Wind"-Bob Seger
2116 UTC Signal faded quickly!
-
2105 S3, fades to S3
-
S6-S7, I'm just tuning in...OM giving "props" to HFU and listeners "down on 6925" and talk of propagation, audio seems to be looping. Into music at 2134z.
-
S5 and decent copy on the longwire @ 2129 with props given to John Poet and other pirates.
Some slow fades.
Seems to be repeating the same looped message over and over since I tuned in.
2134 - out of the loop and playing "Operator" by Jim Croce.
2140 - mention of my post on HFU and into "I'd Love to Change the World". up to S6.
2144 - "Girlfriend Is Better" by Talking Heads
2206 - still there with "Who Are You" - S5
2222 - up to S7 with "Lay Lady Lay"
2225 - sounding good with "Drift Away"
2226 - getting some fades but still decent copy.
2238 - S3 and rough copy.
2242 - "Fortunate Son". sometimes fading completely into the noise.
2256 - still rising up to S7 at times and then back to the noise.
2258 - "Latch"
2300 - wiped out by SWBC in Mandarin.
Thanks for the show.

Had it a little longer than skip and flex then faded away. Did the thing Chris mentioned in a thread recently, the signal got stronger before fading out.
-
Around 2123 the op seemed to be speaking live about the HFU, SDRs and John Poet. However that recorded message was played three times before seeming to go off the air at oops now back with a much better signal at 2134.
-
Just barely hearing audio at 2155z.
-
Excellent signal. I've been listening since 2105. 1st time I've heard an announcer (as opposed to just IDs). Talking about audio processing and trying to be sure the audio isn't too low. I have a few recordings of THX 1138 if the op's interested
Thanks for the show!
