S9 with the VE6JY KiwiSDR in Alberta. Excellent audio, must be fed directly into a transmitter. No signal on KiwiSDR’s in the eastern part of North America, maybe from the west!

1915 UTC-Imaginary Lover by Atlanta Rhythm Section
1917 UTC-You Make Me Feel Like Dancing by Leo Sayer
1919 UTC-Keep On Smilin' by Wet Willie
1923 UTC-Show And Tell by Al Wilson
1926 UTC-Loves Me Like a Rock by Paul Simon
1928 UTC-Suddely jumped from the low side of the frequency to slightly above it, horrible QRM at this point from CB Freebanders
1930 UTC-Listen to the Music by The Doobie Brothers
1932 UTC-Will It Go Round In Circles by Billy Preston
1936 UTC-Diamond Girl by Seals & Crofts
1940 UTC-OFF

Thanks for the broadcast on the unusual frequency!

I know a guy who was talking about transmitting in this range as you get a lot of pop for your watts, but whether it was him or not I couldn't say? It's easy to build very efficient antenna's for this range.

I like the fact he was causing a Freeband riot. Those guy's get what they deserve. Get out of my speaker's you idjit's.

It is indeed an interesting idea. There was some discussion here a while ago about pirates using the 11 meter broadcast band (unused except World Music Radio from Denmark on 25800 kHz) and this gives an idea how that would work, I say quite well! I forgot to mention in my original post that I could hear it on the KFS Omni KiwiSDR in California with a bit weaker signal but still good and with less CB Retard QRM. That’s 1920 Kilometres (1190 Miles for Americans) from the SDR in Alberta, not bad range at all!

I am not a fan of CB Freebanders either. Anyone who wants to use two-way communications as a hobby should get a ham license or stick with 4 watts on CB. They don’t really bother me though, unlike the idiots on channels 6 (and now others too). Those guys QRM the whole Citizens Band, at least Freebanders cause few issues. I was getting fairly annoyed though at the ones interrupting the music broadcast, especially the guy who said “there is music on the frequency” as if nobody else could tell.
