Thanks for the info CT Yankee.  I do recall the announcer giving you a couple of "shout outs" during the transmission.  I have often monitored pirate stations, but was unaware of HF Underground until Radio Beacon mentioned this site during the broadcast.

North American Shortwave Pirate / Radio Beacon Heard 7610 on 4-2-16

I heard this station with a good signal at around 19:30 UT with minimal noise and fading.  Unfortunately, I was in a remote location and only had my digital camera to take the video so the camera made some annoying clicking noises which were not part of the broadcast sound.  I have posted two videos of the reception as heard on my Reuter Elektronik RDR55 receiver using an Alpha Delta DX Ultra antenna.

The announcer did mention during the broadcast that the signal was digital and that he could control it from his laptop remotely.  He also played a variety of music demos of mostly familiar tunes.  During a part of the transmission, he described why he chose the frequency of 7610 KHz for broadcasting.  You can see uploads of the receiver hearing the signals posted to youtube here:

Happy Listening!
