Radio pirate transmitting siren sounds on 3460 kHz in LSB mode.

This transmission has appeared on this same frequency for the past few days, as I've seen recordings of the signal posted all over Reddit , YouTube, and Twitter. General word is that this is a French pirate, hence the reason why I chose a KiwiSDR located in Massignac, France. Shortly after I ended the recording, I heard snippets of music, sound files, and movie clips, all in the French language.

2225 ham freebanders in French.
Nothing like pirate broadcasting, just the same kind as EC Echo Charlie band.

Fights between those freebanders, that happens almost everyday for years now.

I will move that thread soon to Other.
2244 insults in French.
End for that thread !

Thanks. I wasn't exactly sure how to categorize this one.
