People don't play The Penguins music enough these days. A 24/7 Penguin station is needed in pirate radio as they've become such a storied part of Pirate Radio lore.

Could you elaborate on how The Penguins became part of Pirate radio lore?  I am new to the Pirate radio scene and would like a story time from Pigmeat or a link about the topic.  Thanks :)

I went back to check the SDR recording, I had good copy from 1316 sign on.

One thing I noticed, talk and music over top SSTV.  SSTV and other audio do not play well together  ;D
