Guess who's joining the SW pirates?
« on: December 02, 2013, 0056 UTC »
Me!! Christmas this year will bring me a SW transmitter. Radio 9th Dimension, my 11m show will be going down to 6925 ( or whatever is clear) to ring in the new year. So soon, be on the lookout for a new pirate. I'll be playing classic rock right from the vinyl itself, classic punk, folk, indie/ college, and all your requests!! I'll start making some QSL's soon. I'm thinking this will bring some really cool deep tracks etc.. Lets hope the below 40m band will treat me better than 11m did! Once I get the transmitter- and if you hear my show- send your requests and reception reports to radio9thdimension@gmail.com

Going to transmit in C-QUAM? At least AM, so I can listen on my NC-183D or in the car (if you go in the central timezone drivetime).

Sorry to go on about C-QUAM all the time, but C-QUAM on SW is hardcore. Screw DRM or IBOC.
