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.
Nothing today (April1) but I will keep trying.
Poor signal

Very good reception, listening on the G500 with just its whip...seems like Sportsworld has been modified beginning with the A17 season. On Saturdays, Sportsworld always began at 1400z (no BBC Shortwave frequency at this time any longer) with an hour program on sports, then at 1500z into the second half of a Premier League match (most of the year). This frequency is only hour long....at 1600z, I will try 7745 or 17640, 1700z 15400 17780 or 9410, 1800z 13660 or 11810
1500z Sportsworld introduction into news, will go into second half of Chelsea/Crystal Palace match
1505z OM "We are live from Stamford Bridge for the second half. Diego Costa just picked up a yellow card (what else is news?) in the second half ....Crystal Place is leading vs. the Leaders"
1508z Two OM's on play by play - Costa just missed.
1515z Phone in report...Wayne Rooney warming up for United, he may appear today. Nil-nil West Brom and United.
1517z Near goal for Palace, up 2-1 now.
1557z match over Chelsea 1-Crystal Palace 2
