YHWH 7410 am 0305 UTC 12/3/2016

[Kilokat7]

s5-s6 right now into Michigan on peaks, repeat of what I've heard before when he was on a couple of years ago with familiar YHWH catch phrases to the likes of "war mongering", "homosexual Catholic church", etc., etc.

0328z: Signal took a huge dive, just a weak carrier now but was pretty good with almost 100% copy for several minutes.

Weak into northern Ohio but able to make out some words through the static.

[JoeFLIPS]

0321- just a very weak carrier here

YHWH 7410 AM S3 in NY

0330: Talking about drinking the blood of goats.

[refmo]

S1 to S2, can hear OM talking @ 0330, but can't understand much of it.

[ChrisSmolinski]

Weak here, but sounds like an OM talking.

The last two times I recently heard "Joshua," his signal was very good,
with about 100% readable, but today (Dec 3) the reception was
surprisingly very poor.

0338 UTC was less than semi-readable; 0420 was completely unusable
(but open carrier) and the same at 0501.

Am very surprised that others, out of state, were hearing this station
at all, as I didn't think tonight's signal would get very far beyond California.

The band has been going long lately. I'm missing a lot of the east coast stations that skip right over me with these conditions.

Same here, Chris. Once it gets dark I might as well dx the MW band.

As it's HS football playoff season across much of the country, MW dx'ing results in some interesting catches and some damned exciting games. The Ohio Catholic Schools Championship went into double overtime last night in a dogfight.

I have not logged it yet, but I understand that the "Radio Station YHWH" IDs have not been heard within the programs?

I wonder if these are originating from the "real" Joshua, or from someone else, who is relaying recordings? It would seem kind of foolhardy for the actual YHWH guy to start broadcasting again, since the Feds caught him red-handed last time, and know who he is, and where he is.

Of course, he may have relocated his transmitter and it wouldn't be the first time that an HF pirate has returned to the air weeks or months after an initial FCC bust and "stern warning".

But, can't rule out the possibility that these may be relays of previous YHWH broadcasts by a different person.

Reception here was poor, so bear that in mind, and I could have missed some details. It did sound like the same voice as before. I did not, however, hear his signature music "Days of Hard Life".

In the past, I often monitored "Joshua," as he IDed himself on
air in the past. My recent Nov 25 reception (posted here)
consisted mostly of recordings that I had often heard before
when he was broadcasting some years ago, BUT there was
a segment that I was very confident was NEW, as it seemed
to be new material from him. Even his voice sounded slightly
different, but certainly was him. My audio of a portion of that
new segment is posted at  http://goo.gl/fN8Ie3  .

Regarding IDs: as I have posted here recently - "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 [Nov 27] 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 posted at 
http://goo.gl/xLHp8b  ." I also noted recently at sign off, he
no longer uses the unique signature music that he always
started and ended his broadcasts with.

In other words, as Glenn Hauser has pointed out at DXLD yg,
seems all this is a weak attempt to somehow disguise his new
broadcasts from the FCC.

Appreciate hearing feedback from others about my observations.
Certainly is a one-of-a-kind unique station!

He needs to bring back the music - that was the best part of his programs

That segment is one he had included in the past, I have heard it before.

Over the ~1.5 years he was active his program changed from time to time, as he added segments or removed them.  In the end he had 2 one+ hour CDs that he used as his program.

I caught his transmission on Dec 3, the same one you reported in this thread.  Every section he played I had heard before.

T!

Thanks for the clarification! Appreciate your input. Ron
