« on: February 28, 2017, 0053 UTC »

0051 UTC OM in English said something about the Frito Bandito, then at 0052 UTC, somebody playing the "Frito Bandito" song over the top of the peskies on 6925L
0058 UTC OM back on with "Build That Wall" audio clip repeatedly
(Interestingly, I don't believe whoever is doing this has a clue...the peskies are chatting in Portuguese and are likely to be Brazilian or possible even Azorean emigrants)
0103 UTC I'm hearing some weak piano music in the background while the peskies are chatting loudly
0105 UTC Peskies in Portuguese plus somebody saying "Hola" over the top

Peskies / UNID OM in English 6925 LSB 2338 UTC February 21, 2017

« on: February 22, 2017, 0051 UTC »

Hearing a loud OM talking in English saying things like "Back of the bus", "Tijuana Taxi", and "bump it up". Calling himself Mr 276 Worldwide
It seemed that he was trying to harass the peskies, but I'm not sure they either heard him or understand him if they did hear him, as the peskies were chatting in Portuguese!

Hmmm...this is technically a pirate I believe! Heard with nearly 100% copy here since 2210 UTC. S5 peaks with some selective fading. Religious program ending at 2216 UTC followed by ID's by OM as "Reflections Europe" giving frequencies, into another religious program. Signal either abruptly OFF or sudden fade-out at 2222 UTC
