NORTH AMERICA. new frequency 7335-AM, religious pirate
(formerly known as "Radio Station YHWH"), ex: 7410, as heard
by Glenn Hauser, who first reported the return of "Joshua" (as
he IDed himself on the air in the past), with his very unique
religious programming/lecturing; presumed to be broadcasting
from southern California. Thanks go out to Glenn!

Nov 25 (Friday UTC) highlights:

0322-0359 UTC: Seemed to be the same old programming as
heard in the past.

0359-0403: As he always did in the past, read out the ten
commandments of Yahweh.

0403-0413: Believe this must be a new lecture, as I don't remember
hearing this segment before; his voice even sounded a little different
than it did in the past; "I encourage you therefor to burn your flag," etc.

0413-0417*: As he always did in the past, read a letter from a former
Christian before sign off.

Modulation slightly distorted, but very readable. He meticulously did
not give any ID.
In the past he often IDed as "Radio Station YHWH," both
during his diatribe and at sign off, but today's broadcast was certainly
absent of any such IDs. He also did not play the very strange music at
sign off that he did in the past. My audio at  http://goo.gl/fN8Ie3  .

Nice catch. Maybe we call him The Pirate Formerly Known as YHWH?  ;D

NORTH AMERICA. switched back to 7410-AM, religious pirate
(formerly known as "Radio Station YHWH"), ex: 7335-AM.
Nov 27 (Sunday) with identical programming as I heard Nov 25 (Friday)
on 7335-AM, except today was running three minutes later than my
25th reception; 0313-0342 mostly poor reception, but then a
dramatic improvement at 0342 through to 0420*.

There is no mistake about it, "Joshua" has deleted all references to
"Radio Station YHWH," which he used in the past to ID his station.
Today at 0357, the previously recorded program said "Thank you
for tuning into" and the station ID was definitely deleted from the
recording; my audio of this is at  http://goo.gl/xLHp8b .
