North American Shortwave Pirate / Channel Z Radio 6925 KHz AM 1429+ UTC (11/23)

« on: November 23, 2012, 1441 UTC »

Channel Z noted with a real nice carrier at 1429 UTC. Various music, including B-52's "Channel Z" and then an ID by the announcer at 1440 UTC saying he'd play punk music. S9 at first but starting to take some fades.

I had it too, with an S9 signal in AM before the switch to SSTV. Played a mashup of weird music until 0217 UTC (11/23). The SSTV image posted above looks like previous Insane Radio SSTV caps.

Utility / 11175 KHz USB logs for 11/21/2012

« on: November 21, 2012, 1334 UTC »

Stuck at work on a very slow day, so listening to one of the rigs remotely. What's better than some milair? I'll update this thread with additional logs. All are 11175 KHz USB.

1329 UTC: HAVOC 95 with a phone patch to his wife via OFFUTT. Told her when they would be landing, and she briefly put a young child on the phone. Pilot told his kid he couldn't talk now.

1363 UTC: REACH 1013 with phone patch request, but missed the phone patch itself due to getting distracted.

1452 UTC: KRAUT calling BUZZARD several times; no joy.

1549 UTC: ANIMOSITY calling MAINSAIL looking for a signal check.

About S5 with Sneaker Pimps at 0110 UTC, and then someone fired up with SSTV right on top.

- 0207 UTC: SKULL 23 (B-52H) calling ANY STATION for a radio check.
- 0209 UTC: SKULL 23 calling SKULL 24 for a radio check. SKULL 24 briefly tunes up and replies. Both have each other loud and clear. Both are very loud at my location, too.

Utility / Busy night on 11175 USB.

Happened to switch the radio on tonight, and it was already tuned to 11175 KHz USB for some milair action. Immediately heard a lot of activity, with multiple mentions of an "incident". Highlights/callsigns:

- 0034 UTC: Callsigns RARE BIRD, FIRE OPAL (tentative via Token) and HUSKER 25 discussing an "incident". RARE BIRD seems to be a control point.

- 0036 UTC: Mention of ORDER WIRE and burning (presumably UHF) by an unknown call.

- 0037 UTC: OFFUT joins the fray with a quick check in with HUSKER 25.

- 0039 UTC: UNID with NZ/AUS/UK accent says "you're loud and clear here" or something to that effect.

- 0040 UTC: PUERTO RICO responding to "460" who needs a DSN phone patch (number omitted). DSN op is ANDY. 460 is nearly impossible to hear. ANDY mentions nothing specific except a "gas and go".

Just a weak carrier noted around 6925.3 with occasional snippets of audio. Very tough copy here. S1.

S3 to S5 on peaks here with relatively heavy QRM from some peskies (using voice scrambling?). I heard a male and female announcer with a clear Metro Radio International ID around 2127 UTC.

Off at 0022 UTC (11/6) and was near S9+20 throughout. Thanks WMPR!

Real nice S9+20-ish signal here in the Boston burbs at 2343 UTC. It does occasionally take a quick fade down towards S7 but overall very good tonight. Usual trance-y electronic stuff.

Solid S9+10 with a weird mix of "Stayin' Alive" at 0019 UTC (11/5/2012).

Caught some early bits of this while in a different part of the house but by the time I got back to the radio it had nearly faded to oblivion.

Maybe an S1 or S2 here at 0104 UTC. Challenging to copy.
