yes sir, i am still broadcasting shows tonight (https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,43695.0.html), it didnt end with the X-FM relay, i am still honoring all the shows i have so thank you to all the producers who have sent me recorded shows and those who want to do live ones - the current broadcast is a live one from "Radio Free Connecticut".
a bit of a suprise though, i was not expecting to reach New Zealand either, http://kiwisdr.northlandradio.nz:8073/?f=6880.00amz10

its there and it can be heard and at times, fades up pretty strong.
thats got to be some antenna system for this SDR.
not bad for 500 watts but its to be expected with the fof2 at 4Mhz or less, the signal goes "long".
however, it is rather amazing for AM but really easy for SSB - AM is no where nearly as efficient as SSB is - can you imagine if i chose SSB instead ?

Thanks for the relay, excellent taste in music. I had thought that you shutdown after the X-FM relay.

it was a wonderful honor to relay RedHats awesome shows, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
however, I had more shows to play after RedHat's and I still have more shows left to play, there's just not enough time during optimal fof2 to play them all but, I do my best to honor the relay programs for as long as possible until I'm too tired to continue (4+ hours was alot).
I think I'll start the broadcasts a bit earlier before optimal fof2, this way the timeframe is a little better for everyone.
for anyone reading this, if you have a program you want airplayed, recorded or live, shoot me an email at shortwavepirate@aol.com.
I'd be delighted to put you on the air.
unique producers make pirate radio interesting.
