A lot of pirates are transmitting from somewhere in Eastern North America, so that's where they're copied the most as well. Check sdr.hu, then click on the Map feature (it's on the right, at the top of the list of receivers), zoom in, and take your pick. Some have more local noise than others, though, and some pirates transmit with more or less power - or more or less skill - than others, so sometimes you have to hunt around.
There's also one on the web SDR network in NE Pennsylvania that can be good. Web SDR's are nice in that they don't have limits on the numbers of listeners that I can tell, nor a time limit like many kiwi SDR's, but most only allow a few bands to be copied. Fortunately this one includes the pirate band.
