10/11 meters / Re: Another Good 11m Day 25 Oct 2013

« on: October 26, 2013, 1147 UTC »

I was gone all day, but left the R8 on 27700 kHz USB. Caught a number of outbander SSTV pics. Didn't look up the calls, but one said "East Germany." I want to catch some of the Irish church pirates...

----

<Later> I searched on the calls & they were from Germany, France, & Corsica. Pretty cool. A couple weren't clear enough to identify.

Fair/weak signal. Audio sounds tighter than it did the last time I heard them about five years ago. I'm assuming it's a relay of one of their old shows, not that they're back with new equipment (although that'd be nice). "Crazy Train," "Sunshine of Your Love," etc.
Thanks to whoever for the show!

Missed the show but caught the SSTV. Mine was a bit clearer

Grabbed these images, too. At my location, they were about the same general strength/sig quality as those pictured here

VG sig--strong, but some deep fades. Reading through the names of folks on HFU (up through Hornet0123). Music by Oasis
Great to hear Redhat again!

Nice to hear RML again. Reading "this day in history" bits. Live TCs, but the time zone varies. Reading logs & saying hi to listeners on FRC and then HFU. Solid signal here, but getting intermittently hammered by dishwasher QRN. Thanks for the show!

Weak signal hear, but heard 2 clear "New Jersey Pirate Radio" IDs. Lots of talk about Christie and the New Jersey elections. I think he said he was on the air for elections tonight. Off and on a few times & I think he was QSOing with an op.

Please QSL

This didn't sound like any Toynbee Radio show (or transmitter) I've heard. It sounded similar to the station I heard last night, so I think the ID is "Twangy Radio." Of course, I might be totally wrong, but it's tough to tell with the electronic IDs. Lots of funk because he said that the government was in a funk. "Super Freak," "Play That Funky Music," "Wild Thing," etc.

Sounded like op was holding a mic for the audio because I could hear what sounded like "cord creaks" from time to time.

Excellent signal

Have a recording of the show & please QSL...

I thought it sounded like the op said "Twangy" 2x @QRT... pronounced with 2 syllables ("Twang-gy")

Really nice signal here. I tuned in during "Red Barchetta" by Rush. Narrow audio. Seemed to be a few Hz over 6925.

Hah! I just looked back over the other reports here to see if anyone mentioned the frequency. I see that the "Twangy" at the end of the broadcast was a reference to Mentholyptus' comment on the audio quality.

I recorded the show if the op is interested...please QSL if you do that sort of thing...

Decent signal, been hearing what sounds to me like a relay of a soccer game in Spanish. My Spanish isn't good enough to know who's playing or any other details.

Nice signal here, but reception messed up by dishwasher QRN. Only caught the last two min. with a very old song and a clear ID by a YL computer voice. Couldn't hear what the other sounds were just before QRT.
Thanks!

Nice signal. Away from home, but listened on Degen DE-1103 with whip antenna.  Italian parody song that included the lines "lazy Mary, you'd better get up" "Thisa wasa Radio Paisano" National anthem? & off with "Mama Mia, that's a spicy meatball" at 1400
Thanks much for the show!

Just tuned in to 6945 kHz USB. Guess this is still RML? Tuned in while a '60s rock song was on, I started recording, and then ran off to find a computer to log it here before going to bed    Fun to hear 3 pirate transmitters on simultaneously at 0430 on a weeknight
Thanks for another show!
