North American Shortwave Pirate / Re: Northern Relay Service 6930 AM

« on: March 23, 2011, 0215 UTC »

Assuming this is Northern Relay Service since I'm hearing some music and voice just above the noise on 6930.3am. 3-23-11, SINPO 23331. Lots of noise from static crashes and whatever digital mess has invaded 6925. ID is coming from NRS being sent in CW several times around 0206z

« on: March 21, 2011, 0158 UTC »

KARR, 6925u, 3-21-11, SINPO 25332
Lotsa metal with some hip hop thrown in. KARR ID at 0150z.

0156z - Megadeth - Symphony of Destruction
0216z - KARR ID. Little weaker - still above the noise. Lotsa Iron Maiden tunes making me think of the excellent '08 tour rockumentary.
0219z - AC/DC - Have A Drink On Me
0232z - Sounded like op came on live - heard what sounded like "KARR mobile"

Started off quite strong at 1733z with an interval signal peaking S8. Seems to be slowly
getting weaker during the opening ID and "Born To Be Wild". About S6 now.

Catching this in Chicago too, but not very strong. SINPO 14321. Been improving since 0300z. Might be able to ident a tune soon.

What bursts of audio I get sound like Iron Maiden.

0321z - Maiden - Wasted Years
0412z - Came back on with a Alice in Chains tune then a KARR ID. Stronger signal this time 24332

I'm pretty sure it's a violation of the Bob Marley avatar rental agreement to be that cranky. I know because I have the same
clause with the folks that rent me Oddball.

South Park bits and recorded some audio. 6965u, SINPO 25332. Never did catch an ID.
