Latin American Pirate / UNID 1715 kHz USB 0130 UTC 7 Dec 2018
« on: December 07, 2018, 0132 UTC »
MW peskies???  While monitoring 1710, I'm catching some UNID comms on 1715 USB, extremely faint even with the 20 db preamp switched in.  Language is tentatively Spanish, but it's very weak and difficult to make out.  Because it's on my South antenna, I can safely rule out any Trans-Atlantic coastal maritime stations.  Have our South American friends ever heard such communications before in this segment of the band (1710-1800 kHz)?  0142 UTC now and it seems to be gone.

1710 currently has two weak stations @ 0111 UTC taking turns on my South DKAZ loop. The dominant one is a male Spanish preacher from an UNID station that matches none of the following 1710 stations:

http://www.1710amtualtarradial.com/
http://anointing7.com/#radioenvivo

More interesting is the second station I'm hearing playing old time stuff from the 1940s thru the 1970s that occasionally comes out of the noise. Unknown if this is the "West Rockingham" station I heard a few nights ago. <------Same station, see below:

0144 UTC: The Flamingos "I only have eyes for you"
0200 UTC: Chimes at top of hour and faint mention of "Rockingham".  These bells or chimes at TOH match the "West Rockingham" station I logged a few nights ago and I can confirm this is the station playing the adult standards and oldies.
0224 UTC: Weather forecast from pro sounding live announcer and into Dan Fogelberg's "Longer".

North American MW Pirate Radio / UNID 1710 AM 0208 UTC 09 November 2018
« on: November 10, 2018, 0211 UTC »
Very poor copy but with a 20db preamp sitting on 1710, I'm hearing a woman preaching (yelling) "hallelujah! hallelujah! hallelujah!" rising out of the noise, but the prononciation is more like "hallelusha".  I could be wrong, but it doesn't sound Spanish and it doesn't match Radio Reten out of Baton Rouge.  Any ideas?  Another mystery!

After listening to the recording again, it is Spanish, so it seems another Spanish language religious pirate is occupying 1710, aside from the Baton Rouge station.

With oldies and get this...announcements!  Weak copy with possible mentions of "West Rockingham", but not 100% clear.  Slogan heard was "Your station for great music and great memories, you'll always find them right here on the community radio network.." with mentions of an FM frequency and "AM 17-10".

Audio clip here, I would like to clear up the "West Rockingham" ID if someone has better ears than me:  https://youtu.be/GWM2snVbMmU

I'm receiving a carrier right now in Michigan with perhaps a little imaginary audio on peaks.  When checking a remote in Italy, there's a pirate playing music on this frequency, perhaps from the Balkans?  You guys near the east coast might have a better shot at it.

MW Loggings / 1709.83 mystery: Radio Selva, Argentina? 00:27 UTC 9/24/2018
« on: September 24, 2018, 0048 UTC »
I've been noticing a carrier the last few nights on 1709.83 so I started checking various remotes on the Kiwi network.  My search led me to Argentina where one of the receivers had a station label on 1710 for a "Radio Selva".  Looking closer, the station on the Kiwi remote is right on 1709.83, the same as the carrier I'm seeing here in Michigan on my DKAZ pointed due south.  Such DX from deep South America isn't exactly common here, unless conditions go very auroral, but there are no signs of such conditions elsewhere on the band right now.

Radio Selva's audio stream: https://amselva1710.wixsite.com/envivo

Buenos Aires remote that had the best copy on the station: http://kiwisdr.gastonet.com:8073/

The carrier was pretty strong tonight at local sunset, but fading in and out rapidly.  I was unable to dredge up any audio to confirm it was Selva.

Anyone else seeing or hearing this mystery carrier or know anything about this station?

MW Loggings / 2RN Sydney 576 kHz 1115 UTC 09 Sept. 2018 and others from Michigan
« on: September 09, 2018, 1942 UTC »
Conditions have been picking up here for early morning "down under" reception.  Weak carriers have been turning into weak audio on some frequencies.  2RN was a new one for the log book this morning:

576 2RN Sydney peaking from 11:07 to 11:19 UTC with very faint music. Confirmed 2RN against an online receiver near Sydney.  Distance is 9,345 miles (15,048 km) from transmitter to my backyard BOG array.

585 UNID carrier peaking to trace audio at 11:21 UTC with OM talking in heavy domestic slop, too poor to discern any words.

702 2BL Sydney peaking at 11:07 UTC with DU accented talk // to local remote SDR.

Plus a slew of weaker carriers noted on most 9 kHz channels across the whole band.

Perseus SDR + phased BOG array oriented towards the southwest, from Western Michigan

« on: September 03, 2018, 1051 UTC »
Jalisco Radio, a new one for me.  Their 6-note doorbell chime after the Mexican National Anthem gives this one away and really jumps out of the noise:

630_Khz_XEPBGL_31AU18_1100_UTC.mp3

Heard on the Southwest phased BOGs at sunrise, 1,844 miles.
