I got up at 0830 & heard Merlin via Twente, but could not even hear a trace of the carrier with either my 48m inverted V or horizontal loop. I could only hear the slightest bit of a carrier from LHH on 6205, so I went back to bed. Terrible transatlantic conditions

Good signal this morning, probably 80-95% copyable, with news (currently news about Hunter Biden & a quote from him)

I've been listening to The Vault for the past 40 or so min. Lots of clear IDs. Pretty decent signal tonight

Ramones "We Want the Airwaves" into a funk song. A number of clear IDs. Excellent signal

Tuned in & heard what sounded like a Dead Milkmen song. Good signal, off mid-song. Maybe still Radio Noid?

Tuned in just after 0100. A lot of international dance music with a big beat. I had a bit of a hetrodyne around the freq, so I tuned in AM sync, which probably wasn't the best way to go. The sync locked & it eliminated the het, but the audio sounded pretty tinny this way    This is not a place I'd typically check for pirates, but it's great to hear one here

I've been looking for TRS around 5150 off'n'on this week. Can't listen right now on my own radio, so I'm catching it with an excellent signal on the HF Underpants web receiver

Weak/fair signal with what sounded like a psychedelic song into what now sounds like a Halloweenish radio play. Older sounding narrator over music and sinister laughter.

By 2305 or so, the signal's starting to get pretty good. Twilight Zone beginning audio a couple of times, then a segment of a woman talking (possibly from the show) and it's seemed to degenerate into bits of her words repeating and now other words and sounds repeating.

Fun listening during the snowstorm

I love these graphs. Wonder how many of the wobbly & drifty carriers are Part 15 or pirate transmitters?

tuned in around 0208 and heard a bunch of what seemed like videogame sounds. Tried to get a sense of whether this was still the unid or some utility that I'd never heard before when an electronic-sounding voice said something & the station went off
