Shortwave Pirate Radio In North America And Around The World, And Other Signals That Go Bump In The Night
We seek to understand and document all radio transmissions, legal and otherwise, as part of the radio listening hobby. We do not encourage any radio operations contrary to regulations.
Always consult with the appropriate authorities if you have questions concerning what is permissable in your locale.
Sounds like that SDR needs a high pass filter or something. This is indeed a MW station located in Virginia.

I don't think I've ever seen a logging for this station from anywhere but the NE USA, yet here's a report from Germany. Remarkable.
She jumped in the crowd. I guess it made the rest of them feel like the old men that they are.

« on: October 30, 2016, 1735 UTC »OK 1309 UTC and it's not audible anywhere else. I think it's a local AM product on 6930 being picked up by the SDR, or it's a product of the SDR itself.

Token,
An important consideration would be the learning curve, and whether any of your recommended SDR's are good for beginners. As my college photography instructor told me (when she made us all get very basic SLR cameras like the Pentax K1000v you don't learn to drive in a Lambourghini.x Can you tell us if these SDR's are easy to learn, whether support is good or not, and if there are online groups comperable with those that the SDRPlay has available?
Speaking for myself, I became very interested in the Cloud IQ and Elad based on your earlier remarks several months ago, but concluded that they might be too complex for newbies who aren't necessarily good for someone like myself (still inexperienced with sw listening, has never used a complex rig with dozens of controls, not great at learning software without a lot of support). Shadypyro may be further down the road than me.
Thank you.

« on: October 30, 2016, 0018 UTC »Kims on bass? Give me Kim Shattuck who was also with the Pixies very briefly. Kim Warner was pretty cool too. Shattuck was too cool for the Pixies. Shocked them and violated their Xtian ideals writhing about on the stage or ground or something.
