Hello from Greece,the pirates from Serbia they tuning between 1670 and 1680 khz for example 1675 khz,but the greece pirates at 1670 or 1680 khz. Of course the same it  is happens at all  the others pirate frequencies.
The power of the Greece pirates sometimes is extremely high,20 kw  or higher,and most of the antennas  are very good and efficiency constructions.
The radiation angle is too high, 70-90 degree, because they wants to speaking between the Greece,and this is the reason why they dont use vertical antennas. ;)

Dear Friend
Thank you for finding time for me. Congratulations on the growing popularity of your radio! You owe it to world music, to English language in communication and to enter the 40m band. Your Greek colleagues stayed in the trenches of national music and language. The SWL world is friendly and interesting in Mediterranean countries. See how much interest was aroused by my old entry about the activity of Greek radio pirates!
I wish you to increase the power and better antenna.
I strongly advise you to choose an identifying jingel for your station. A piece of Zorba would be great, for example.
  Best regards! Kris :D

Hello Kris,thank you for your wishes,yes ,you are right,the 90% of the Greece pirates at the mw band they prefer the 1960s tranditional Greece music,excpecially up to 1600khz. :-[
There are so many radio station (pirates) inside in Athens with non stop music 24h,but at frequencies bellow to 1100 khz,so the result is a very  strong signal everywhere in the city with low TX power,but no skywave for long distance communication.
Very soon i will make a jingle,your idea was nice! ;D !
Best wishes from me!
