SDR catch, 0200 sign on very nice signal this evening. Thanks for the show!

26702
Rap type music heard starting at 0132.
Benway first heard at 0147 with some hello radios. I still hear the rap type music, so that could be another station?
Benway still talking at 0204, then into some music and a skit. Not a great signal here.
off at 0208?

I think the Radio Echo One show closed with God Save the Queen, so that could explain that audio.

I heard these sound effects again last night, around 0218 when I happened to quickly check the radio to see what was on. I posted a short thread about it here in Other: http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,12039.0.html

I will update the post later this morning once I listen to the SDR recording.

Any suggestions as to where stuff like this should be logged? Pirate or Other?

Back again tonight, pretty strong.

26705
Started on 6931 then moved to 6938. Pretty good signal, S9+

26706
Just signing on now. S9, but lots of QRM from 6925 LSB pescadores.

Moved to 6945 at 0057z.

I saw the same thing, the 60 Hz spikes. It seemed to go QRT exactly at 2100z.

Possibly the same station as was reported at 2014. Hearing some faint rap type music.

Just signed on, hearing some music. Very weak, barely there. But the noise level is low.
2017 YL talking then into music
2020 "Highway To Hell"
2024 Off?
2027 Back on or faded back in with "Highway To Hell" again
2031 Rap song?
2037 "Uptown Girl"

Some very faint music during the time period Sealord describes, thanks for the tip.

I could barely here the SSTV at 0831, so I fed it into MultiMode OSX, manually started the decode, and adjusted it as best as I could.

Noted here as well

Checking the SDR recording...

04:47:22 Echo One went off, audio and carrier, allowing the Spooky Sound to be more easily heard
04:49:36 Feedback like noise
04:50:45 More feedback
04:52:30 jFarley's Wah Wah
04:53:05 All done?

BTW - The pescadores were active on 6925 LSB during this time, and they tend to bleed over to the USB. I could hear them, but what I noted above (and jFarley heard) does not seem to be from the LSB.


26712
Quite weak here, but heard on the SDR recording.

26713
SDR catch here, 1017 sign on. Mostly S6 here with a peak to S8 near the end of the program.

26714
SDR catch, fair signal here, about S5 to S6, with static from the storms off in the distance.

Sounds like the same signal as the other night, on for about a minute, off for a few seconds, then on again, then off 0506.

Here is a recording: http://hfunderground.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Spooky_Noise.mp3
