North American Shortwave Pirate / Radio Illuminati 6950 AM 2355 UTC 7/2/16

« on: July 02, 2016, 2356 UTC »

Signed on a few minutes ago with interval signal and mention of "clandestine broadcast".  Now running oldies, nice audio again tonight, S5-S6.

I'm copying this one also tonight: 7/2/2016 @ 0145 UTC on 7998.31, same details as already mentioned, very weak in the noise here.

Oldies here with a pretty good sounding AM signal, S6-S7 over the summer static.  Nice tunes!

Shortwave Broadcast / 6295 WWCR Spur 0055 UTC 6/25/2016

« on: June 25, 2016, 0104 UTC »

WWCR spur or harmonic noticed on 6295, very weak but occasionally rising to fair audio.  Callsign IDs with frequency mention of 15.825, but not enough time to check that frequency.  Disappeared at 0100 UTC.

I've been trying to catch this station for a long time.  I've never had even a hint of them here at night.  Nice log!

Listening remotely tonight via the Cheshire, CT. remote Perseus.  S5-S6 on that node w/ obscure music that I couldn't begin to identify :-)  Thanks for the show tonight!

Thanks Refmo.  The BOGs run parallel and are spaced about two feet apart, one about 450 FT and the other 500 FT, left unterminated at the far ends and phased using a DX Tools Quantum Phaser.  With phasing, I'm able to null 740 Toronto (a real "flame thrower" here) right down to the noise floor while enhancing signals towards the south pacific.  Without phasing, 738 would be an impossible catch here.

I'm not on the west coast nor Hawaii, however 738 Tahiti is sometimes heard here in Michigan during sunrise skip when conditions are exceptional (late August through September here).  This is how 738 sounds when conditions are very good:

1440 would be next to impossible in the lower 48 states due to our 10 kHz channel spacing.
