0406  Guitar jazz mx.  No anmnts yet.

Fair signal and in the clear.  Some slight QSB.

0408  Abruptly off.  Off course as soon as I hit "post" the signal disappears.  Must have been someone testing.

0411  Maybe same station back on w/"Fruitcake" comedy dialog and mx.  Now in AM.
0412  "Happy Festivus everyone!".
0418  Jimmy Buffet
0421  "That fruitcake you got for Christmas, what did you do with it?"
0422  Song "Nobody Likes a Fruitcake".
0425  Bluegrass song "I Wish There Was a Special Day for Fruitcake" (I think).
0429  Sounded like the modulation was lowered.
0430  Sudden sign off.  No ID.

Strong signal.  A bit overmodulated.

2158  Someone just popped up here with music.  Guitar solo.  Audio not that strong.


3
2151  Getting what sounds like maybe The Grateful Dead.  But I'm not familiar with their stuff.
2156  Live version of "Good Lovin".

Fair signal here in SW PA.

4
2047  Getting instru. mx.  Sounds kind of like Pink Floyd but probably not.
2050  Possible M anncr briefly.
2053  Back up again and same type instru. mx hrd 6 min. earlier.
2055  Much better w/new song of techno. mx.

Weak and pretty heavy QSB, but definitely someone on the freq.

2205  "Gimme All Your Lovin" by ZZ Top
2208  Sounds like a stand-up comedy show.  Audio kind of scratchy making it difficult to copy.
2214  "Cherry Pie" by Warrant??  Starting to get some heavy QSB.
2216  ID by M w/altered voice sounding like he said it was the very first broadcast from Big Johnson Radio.
2217  More stand-up comedy.  Sounded like Andrew Dice Clay, but perhaps not.
2219  Continued with more comedy from Doug and Bob McKenzie, "The 12 Days of Christmas"
2224  "I'm Popeye the Sailor Man"
2225  ID and QSL request to  P.O. 28413, ?? RI ??

North American Shortwave Pirate / UNID 9420 USB 1435 UTC 12 Feb. 2023
« on: February 12, 2023, 1439 UTC »
1435  Someone here in USB airing long info messages about men getting hit in the testicles, and now pubic hair.
1445  Gregorian chant-like mx.
1455  Went off the air for a short time but back on with another message about circumcision.
1500  Over the top of the hour still talking about circumcision, no ID.
1513  Went off, and about 20 seconds later there was a burst in digital mode showing up in the Perseus display as a pentagon in a circle.

Power is being varied and going off and on.  Very strong and also very weak.  Sounds like someone testing.  Heard on a number of KiwiSDRs all over North America but not outside.  Any idea who??

Other / Russian Military Beacon 9310 USB 0550 UTC 29 JAN 2023
« on: January 29, 2023, 0557 UTC »
For the third time (26 and 10 Jan.), I've been hearing someone on 9310 in USB playing the Soviet national anthem by Gimn Rossi over and over for hours.  The first time on the 10th, it was noted from 0709-1458 UTC.  On the 26th, it was noted from 0540-0600.   Tonight its on again.  Doesn't sound like a pesky.  I've checked numerous web receivers around the world and it's been heard just about everywhere, always massive signal in Finland.  Any idea what this might be??

0005  Punk mx.
0006  M anncr with backwards ID anmnt: "I want to wish a very Merry Unique Christmas to all my friends.   Unique Radio (X3)".
0007  Cont. Punk song.
0008  Another backwards ID exactly the same as above then off.

Fairly strong but QSB and local QRM.

0158 UTC  Leading up to the ToH, heard "Fly Away" by John Denver.
0200 UTC  ID by M as "You're listening to Community Radio Network ?? broadcastings on 87.7 FM and 1710 AM.  If you....request a song.  You may call us at 540-392-6021.  We look forward to hearing from you."  Although I may have gotten a number in the phone wrong.
0200 UTC  After the ID anmnt, there were 5+1 long time ticks.
0230 UTC  Sound like there's still mx in there at this time.

Of course it was weak and mixing with WQFG 689.

Anyone know anything more about this station??

Latin American Pirate / UNID. 7865 USB 1030+ UTC 12 Dec. 2022
« on: December 12, 2022, 1048 UTC »
1030-1046+  Been hearing someone here playing nonstop Pop ballads, quite strongly for a while.  Heard what sounded like Adele at one point.  Other than that, I'm not familiar with any songs and I don't use any of the mx ID apps.  Heard this also on web receivers throughout the U.S., Netherlands Antilles (TWR Bonaire), and one in Brazil.  Not in Australia.  I suspect it's one of the Brazilian Pirates, but who??

11
0128-0129  Caught live IDs and talk by M between songs.  Into a metal song.  Fairly good signal here into southwest PA.

12
0053 UTC  Rock mx.  Sounds kind of like The Clash.  Been hearing this for over an hour from time to time.  Weak but readable on peaks. 
               
0056 UTC  Man announcer but can't copy.  Audio seems a bit on the bassy side.  Is this one of the LA Pirates??

13
Been hearing Bluegrass music since about 2240 UTC.  Weak signal.  Just now at 2248 the signal has come up to readable level here in SW PA.  No announcements noted yet.

14
Sounded like Mr. Rogers Neighborhood at 1206 followed by maybe SNL.
1208 Suddenly big increase in power.  Nice "signing on" "WREC, R. Free East Coast" ID and Pirate voice.
  Massive in SW PA now at 1209.  4/5/4/5/4
