North American Shortwave Pirate / Re: YHWH 7475 AM 0345 UTC 8 July 2022

I used to post all my logs of him back about 2018 (I think) on hfu and he or someone he knows (?) emailed me a few pictures of a mobile home that looked like it was in the middle of nowhere - I’ll look back at the email to verify but either the email address it came from or the subject line indicated the pics had something to do with his location.
Were they real?  I have no idea.  Did it creep me out like his closing music? Ab-so-f*-@king-lutely.
I don’t dig his rap but I am intrigued by his brazen attitude toward FCC rules/regs and the flat out bizarreness of the whole idea of a religious pirate.  And no pirate should EVER sign off with “I love you”.
Have fun,
FPE

Doubtful as he is logged on many DX groups so whatever you choose to do will likely have no effect.
Good luck.

Andy,
You’re welcome - it’s a great series of videos.  True pioneers.  They were incredibly bold - at one point going back on the air the day after getting the knock.  And their cat & mouse game with Gordon of the PO is like a Monty Python sketch.
Hope you are well.

Six part series on Radio Aquarius from the early 70s.
Was a treat to watch.
This is when pirates were f*cking pirates!

Huh? / Re: 10 Times Hackers Hacked Live Television? Leenks rip.

I live near the shooting gallery aka Chicago and I can still remember watching the sports cast on WGN Channel 9 (Dan Roan) when the first Max Headroom attack happened - the audio was goofed up but the video was clear enough.  The hackers got it all straightened out when they turned their sights on Dr. Who on WTTW Channel 11 later that night.
Still one of my fondest memories.  Pirates just ain’t what they used to be.
