MW Loggings / Weak MW signals this morning?
« on: February 11, 2012, 1637 UTC »
I gave the extended band a try late this morning (1630 UTC) and signals seem pretty weak. My usual TIS pests are not coming in well either. Anyone else notice this?

Had a faint carrier on the SDR, but that was about it. I could not even hear a het.

You should put that on a t-shirt, Al.

I do wonder if we've already peaked for this cycle?

General Radio Discussion / Re: Recognize this noise?
« on: February 09, 2012, 2200 UTC »
It reminds me of a sound I have [rarely] heard before on HF, sometimes near 6925. If I hear it again, I'll try making a recording, to compare.

I've had pescadores around 6930 for weeks now. Often playing music.

North American Shortwave Pirate / Re: HF pirate frequencies
« on: February 07, 2012, 2006 UTC »
Europirates have been active on 15 and 21 MHz. They tend to move around a bit, and are infrequently on these frequencies. The best way to keep up to date is to log onto Iann's chat (a web base chat as many operators and listeners are there, and will post when they are on: http://www.easyshopdiscountzone.com/radio/pirate/chat.html  Actually that is a great chat overall if you want to hear Europirates. They also use 3 and 4 MHz, but that's often tough to receive unless you live in the northeast, New England in particular.

There have been some US pirates on higher frequencies as well, but very infrequent. The best bet is probably to closely monitor posts here, as the ops often let some people know via email just before they go on the air, so there's a good chance of someone posting a logging right away. Also don't forget to check out the #pirateradio IRC chat, see the link at the top of this page.  Also see http://www.hfunderground.com/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat for more details on IRC.

On for a few minutes, really down in the noise, sounded like a beer commercial?
