General Radio Discussion / Active Shortwave Pirates (North America) January 2023
« on: February 06, 2023, 1553 UTC »
This is a list I have compiled based on loggings here on the HFU. It shows all the North American shortwave pirates heard in the month of January 2023. Note that many stations use multiple names so determining the number of actual transmitters in use is impossible. Some stations are also active so infrequently that they may not have been logged this month but may broadcast in the future. Stations are listed alphabetically and show the station name followed by the number of loggings in January 2023.

Other / Retards QRMing AMers 3895 kHz 0015 UTC 5 FEB 2023
« on: February 05, 2023, 0031 UTC »
Listening and hearing strong signals on the Raleigh, NC KiwiSDR.
0015 UTC-Today is the AM rally so some of the AM activity is up on 3895 kHz AM, someone calling CQ
0015 UTC-Slopbucket operators bothering the AM stations and complaining endlessly
0025 UTC-The AMers moved and now the Satan Side Band ops continue to complain
0030 UTC-Still complaining
Some people just have rocks in their heads. I hear sidebanders in the AM Window every single day and on the one day of the year AMers often operate outside the window people just have to complain.

Peskies / Music Jammer 6900 LSB 0405 UTC 4 FEB 2023
« on: February 04, 2023, 0452 UTC »
Good signal direct at 0405 UTC. Also heard around 0330 UTC with a strong signal on the Northern Utah KiwiSDR. This is the first time I have heard music from the Mexican stations on 6900 LSB, things are normally very organized there. Definitely a jammer because people were continuing to speak over the station playing music. When the Brazilian Peskies play music to entertain each other they all stop talking and listen, but behave like this when jammed.
0405 UTC-Pop music, on and off several times. Seemed to wait until someone starts talking then starts up again
0412 UTC-Still going but I am going back inside
0453 UTC-Listening on the Northern Utah KiwiSDR, stations have switched to USB and the jammer is now using a buzzing noise
