Radio Pirana 6930 AM 2325 UTC 28 Mar 2017

Presumably Radio Pirana on again, SIO 211 to 222. Hoping for some nice peaks again overnight.
Yes, confirmed by the operator, I noticed the carrier going off and on at exactly the time he had some problems.
This is a good station to sit on for a while, eventually you might get a nice peak.

I am hearing weak music and  some talk. If it weren't for the static crashes, I could actually copy some of this.

At 2352utc just barely heard a carrier when bfo turned on. Panasonic RF-4900.
Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, 7mhz backyard dipole, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com

0014- very faint signal with tiny bits of audio heard listening in USB
0125- still monitoring the frequency and hearing occasional bits of faint audio but mostly just a weak carrier

Carrier a bit above the noise floor, but no audio heard from 0015-0025 UTC. Will continue to keep the ears open on this one!  :)
Plenty of T-storm static crashes from off the VA & NC coast, as well as a good size blaster out KS, OK & TX way is making things difficult!
0100 UTC Not a trace of audio to be heard above all this snap, crackle, and pop  :(
