If you go to European loggings, you will quickly see that a few of us are watching down there as well. Since many of us here have SDRs, we watch for odd traces of things not normally there on a regular basis. I know during the "off" times of 6925 activity, I open up my waterfall for 1.5MHz view to find other things to listen to... Otherwise, I narrow it up to 768KHz which still includes 49MB...

When you log something, share it & I am sure the other listeners on this board will & do appreciate ANY & ALL loggings...

Regards,

Rafman

Yes, many of us do check out 48 meters.  I'm using my SDR-14 to monitor 48 meters, eventually I may start recording it, as I do now with the netSDR on 43 meters.

Please do post what you're hearing, on the appropriate board (Shortwave Pirate for North American pirate stations, or European Pirate for those from Europe).  Or here on the General Discussion for posts that are not actually loggings.
