In Spanish tonight.  Translated id at 0255 "This is KVOH, The Voice of Hope, broadcasting from Los Angeles, California". S9+20 here. At 0300 ID again: "Transmitting with 50,000 watts from Rancho Simi, California".  (Rancho Simi is about 40 miles northwest of downtown Los Angeles.)

Very nice signal, although they are clearly using some heavy digital compression.

0430 Now playing Joanie Sommers.... "I'll Never Stop Loving You" "Til There Was You" and "Let There Be Love"

In English, OM announcer: Pat Conrad, "This is Late night from Los Angeles."  Jesus loves you and coming up: Johnny Mathis.

WOW, finally some decent music on regular Shortwave...however the massive amount of digital compression makes it rather hard to enjoy I'm afraid.  

OM announcer: send signal reports to: qsl@kvoh.net 

Sign off @ 0500 followed by brief test tone.

Dunno if this qualifies as a pirate, but for the last 10 minutes I have been listening to someone beating out a repeating rhythm on what sounds like a cow bell on 6970 USB.  Level varying from S4-8 with S3 noise floor on preamp #1.

Changed channels and came back...still going 0500 UTC.  Not sure if morse code, probably not..

Shortwave Broadcast / Radio Rossii 7320 KHZ AM 10/17/2013 0600

Getting a fairly good signal tonight (in Russian), never heard this one before: According to shortwave schedule.com the 100KW transmitter is way out on the eastern end of Russia near the Bering Sea.  Also getting Radio Nikkei quite well on 9595, so propagation seems to be favoring the north Pacific.

Copying a super clear signal here, S9 with S1 noise floor.  

0342 "No Sex in the Champagne Room"
0346 Sick sick m@@fu@@@ Cock@@@ off for a few seconds
quick change
"And now Samuel L. Jackson on go the f--- to sleep"
PPVR ID at approx 0356

PPVR laughing ID again at 0407 then abruptly off with what sounded like a change of frequency
now on 6930.

0412 PPVR to the tones of the alien ship in Close Encounters (funny!)

0420-0421 Abruptly off air then on again

I only started at 0340 but when I tried AM a couple times it was garbled.

Very nice signal s9 with light fading on 9470 khz, in English. "Africa Late Night" news program. I don't hear this very often in the western US.
