Latin American Pirate / Re: Venezuela 93.7 FM relay? 6906.1 AM(Carrier with USB) 2221 UTC 3 OCT 2020

And it's really not quite a pirate, per World of Radio, they are applying for a license from the Venezuelan authorities.  Whether they get it or not is quite another matter, given the large number of MW stations that have been closed by the authorities, not to mention the numerous HF outlets they had some 20 odd years ago.
Evidently it's something of a 'test transmission' running, at least as reported about 50 watts.

Whether it stays on the air as a 'pirate' if their application is denied (and that seems likely given the government situation) remains to be seen....Mike

FM Free Radio / Do we have any WTFDA members here?
« on: September 05, 2020, 2203 UTC »
Hi; I'm working on updating the pirate section of the HF Underground wiki, and we have an article devoted to places where you can get reports of activity. It seems that the Worldwide TV FM DX Association (WTFDA) would cover this, but I'm not a member. Do they cover FM (and maybe even TV) pirates?

If you are curious about the organization here is their web page

www.wtfda.org

and the page with sources of news for pirate activity...
