A pleasant surprise in my email inbox this morning! Thanks "Band With No Name" Radio :) This was in response to my posting on the HFU for the Christmas program. Happy to get this as I had accidently recorded over my tape of the program :)

S9+10 here with excellent audio at 2331 UTC. Professional interview about pirate radio....sounds like a favorable one :)
Carrier frequency about 6975.2 KHZ...some selective fading
2344 UTC I believe that was a Hobart Radio Int'l ID in there!
2348 UTC More ID's and email address
2351 UTC Played a bit of the Bangalore Poacher IS and #s
2353 UTC ID, then man announcer
2356 UTC Clip of Borderhunter Radio
2357 UTC ID
0002 UTC QSL at hriradio@gmail.com
0005 UTC Clip of KIPM
0011 UTC ID, then clip of RNI and info, including audio from the boarding of the ship by officials
0019 UTC Song "We are the pirate station"
0022 UTC Sounded like somebody jamming the frequency....loud! Gone after about a minute or so
0024 UTC Nope, the noise is still there, but not as bad...
0026 UTC ID, short musical bit, then the famous phrase....
0027 UTC OFF

11043
S8 here at 2219 UTC UNID tune with a driving bass beat.
2221 UTC OFF (no ID given but same audio as WMID before)

11044
Here also at 2204 UTC with audio fading in and out of noise level.
2205 UTC Man announcer, but tough copy. Fading pattern sounds European
Too much noise, peskie QRM and static crashes here for copy. Carrier at fairly good level though.

11045
Just caught the end of this at 2101 UTC with good signal above the noise. Carrier a slight bit off of 6886.7 KHZ AM. Last bit of UNID music, then man announcer with "WMID...WMID...John T Arthur's second favorite radio station". (Man has a slight regional US accent!).

11046
Fair signal amidst heavy noise and very loud peskie on LSB bleeding over into USB here at 0018 UTC tune in. UNID music, man announcer at 0020 UTC with ID sounding like Radio Molotov into another UNID song.
0024 UTC Signal picked up above the noise with another UNID song-S5 here now
0028 UTC Interval Signal? :) Followed by UNID rock tune
0035 UTC UNID song sounding like a punk/thrash tune
(Are these songs all from the same group? I googled Molotov and they're a Mexican group)
0037 UTC Hmmm...now men are chanting something like "DA DA Da"
(Some eclectic tuneage I'm hearing tonight)
0039 UTC Man talk intro ending with a "Yee Ha", into a rock tune with a heavy bass line
0043 UTC Rap tune en espanol
0047 UTC Man said something in Spanish, into a Heavy Rock tune
0052 UTC Man announcer with ID "XLR8-Accelerate"
Hmmm...is this the same station? ???
0057 UTC The music playing now would go well with a good Carlos Castenenda book!
0059 UTC "Sunshine of Your Love"-Cream (Now I'm in safe territory!)
0104 UTC Reggae tune Man singer
0107 UTC ID by man announcer "X-L-R-8....accelerate", then OFF

This came up on a google search... www.radiomolotov.blogspot.com
Maybe related somehow? Anyway, thanks for the show XLR8 op! Had us guessing on this one tonight 8)

EDIT: The clip posted by S. McArdle clearly says..."and now for some real Molotov". The ID at 0020 UTC has a 6 or 7 note IS with man announcer saying "Radio Molotov".

Thanks DJ LT!!! Instead of shoveling out from under the storm of historic proportions, I was staying warm and comfy inside in front of the radio dancing to the sounds of Boombox Radio! Well, maybe not dancing...but I was thinking about it! ;D

Just put the snow shovel away and came in to hear PRB at 2130 UTC with a superb signal here on 6924.7 KHZ AM. Song by lady singer ending then Charlie L with mention of 2012? Christmas show and some shoutouts.
2137 UTC Charlie L with name of next song (not a Boston area group), then Belfast address and gmail.
2142 UTC Charlie L, then R&B tune by man singer
2146 UTC OFF

Nice to hear you again PRB! Hope the snow didn't pile up too much out Boston way. We got maybe 8-10 inches here in Springfield. Turned out to be a lot of Weather Channel hype!

11053
Very interesting to know that the origin of the term "radio hooligan" can be credited to the work of a magician....seems that the magicians are still working their magic, much to the delight of us pirate radio listeners!
(Reading further into this on the internet, it seems that Nevil was also the son of a magician, John Nevil Maskelyne, who among other things, is credited with the invention of the pay toilet  8))
