North American Shortwave Pirate / Re: UNID 6925 USB 0134z-0152z 07-17-12

Also heard here & I'm listening to my recording of it. I tuned in around 0142. I think I heard a Bob Dylan song and either a blues or early rock'n'roll song. Last song was an instrumental and featured train sounds or bagpipes? Hard to tell with weak signal in USB below the noise level. The song before sounded like a slow anthemic ballad.

Have a recording if the op is interested. Thanks for the show!

Weak signal here with fading & ethereal music. No ID heard, but ID per the station op.
Thanks for the show!

Too bad I didn't have the recorder running on 7/14, but thanks for the audio, Sealord. I didn't have much luck with the songs, but one was "Government Love Affair" by The Screamers.

North American Shortwave Pirate / Lincolnshire Poacher Pirate: 6925U, 7/16, *0132-0143*

Fair/good sig, but a lot of t-storm crashes. On with about 3 min or so of the "Lincolnshire" numbers station IS, then a real male announcer trying to sound like a computer voice. Announcement seemed to be primarily to correct logs about the station that was reported as this one at 0630 UTC on 6930 kHz AM last night--that was not this station. Instead, the announcer mentioned that 4 logs of this were of his station. Not sure if I caught all of the dates correctly, but I think they were 7/7, 7/9, 7/12, & 7/14. He also mentioned those who logged him: "Far-ley, Sea-Lord, Yo-der, Smo-lin-ski," etc. Then, a few minutes of the "Lincolnshire" numbers station IS. I heard part of a rock song after this, but I'm not sure if it was the same station & it faded out.

Thanks for the show & please QSL, if you do that sort of thing.

Saw the log, ran to the radio room from the Cards/Reds game, & only caught the computer voice "hello radio" repeating, then off. Afterward, station tuning up with carrier, but I guess this is a different station. Have brief recording of Bunker R, if op is interested.
Thanks!

Thought I had finally heard Blue Ocean Radio, but it's RTN. Sounded kinda like instrumental music from '80s movie soundtracks. Heard an announcement, but hard to copy. Lots of jamming from someone who sounded like PPVR.

Thanks for the show!

BTW, I checked my recording and the sig was really pretty good here. Unfortunately, I had the receiver in USB and I was mistuned by about 200 Hz or so. In all, the recording was unusable, but I could tell that the signal was at least fair here. Too bad I didn't do a little better job with the radio! :O)

Pretty weak here with lots of t-storm noise, but I have decent audio making it here.
Thanks for the show, RTN!

Presumably the same here, too. Tuned in about 0139. Pretty weak, but I recorded it. Just checked in here to see if anyone was reported in this time frame. I need to listen closely to the recording tomorrow.
Thanks for the broadcast!

My couple of brief recordings of KPRC that I made were just on a little boombox with the internal loop antenna. They had a nice signal in the Northeast

1224: sending SSTV pics, but the sync is way off from my MMSSTV program & everything is really clipped. I think the first pic was the Northwoods logo & I have no idea about the 2nd or 3rd pics, just bands of color here.

I tuned in at 1130 UTC to a tonal song. I couldn't figure out if it was a utility, someone testing, or? Then, I thought it must be a Northwoods Radio show of American Indian music...and it is.

Thanks for the show!

I wasn't listening to the radio at the time, but I did receive the SSTV. My copy wasn't as clear as this (even split the image in half between two different screens), but I could read the ID.

Thanks!

Weak here, too. Thought I heard a CM ID. Definitely heard 3 Dog Night "Mama Told Me Not to Come"
