MW Loggings / Re: Radio Torrente de Vida 1690 KHz (Boston area)

« on: September 30, 2012, 1945 UTC »

Well, approaching 2 years after my original post, this station continues to be active. Logged this afternoon at 1944 UTC on its usual frequency of 1690 KHz and with a positive ID (in Spanish). It sounds like it is operated off of a computer playlist. Music is Spanish ballads. Logged this one from the home shack using the IC-7410 and an 80 meter dipole.

I have KOA's STL up on 25950 FM at 1921 UTC, although it's fading down as the band closes up. Sports talk.

I have Red Mercury playing AC/DC and then into an announcement at 0207 UTC (9/29) on 6925 USB. Nice copy here, solid S9 and peaking to S9+10. After the announcement, into The Doors.

I checked the Netherlands web SDR and Undercover Radio is clearly audible over there! A shout out to myself, and a listener in the Ukraine at 0048 UTC and then back into Dead Can Dance.

Huge signal upon tune-in at 0041 UTC. S9+30! Benway with an ID, and the email address, then into a monologue about an acid flashback with new-age music in the background. Undercover Radio sounding awesome and trippy tonight!

Other / 6974.6 KHz mystery carrier 2310 UTC

« on: September 23, 2012, 2320 UTC »

I have a very big carrier on 6974.6 with no apparent modulation. It's been on at least since I tuned in 10 minutes ago at 2310 UTC. Making it pretty difficult to copy Israel on 6973.

That's pretty cool stuff. Is this activity quite common?

Picked out a clear Chamber Pot Radio ID at 0145 UTC. Copy in general is about S1. But not bad for the long haul, I guess.
