Very strong signal activity for Portuguese speakers at 263.679 MHz. 15:42 UTC
 I swear I can hear the sound of diesel truck engines in the background on some of them. Transponder passband limits look to be from roughly 263.660 to 263.690

Good strength pirate signals on 262.219 MHz  Transponder passband limits look to be from roughly 262.210 to 262.240

Good strength pirate signal on 262.129 MHz, competing with a bursty digital signal.  Transponder passband limits look to be from roughly 262.110 to 262.140

Good strength pirate signal on 258.655 MHz. Transponder passband limits look to be from roughly 258.635 to 258.665

Somewhat quiet so far today, 13 December 2022

01:40 UTC - 263.5800 NFM Brazilian pirates. Sounds like they are mobile. You can hear that "alternator" noise wining up and down during the transmissions.
