Firedrake is the unofficial name of a shortwave broadcast featuring loud oriental orchestral music. It exists solely to jam other signals, such as broadcasts by Sound of Hope. The broadcasts only contain music; no form of on-air identification has ever been reported. An article on satdirectory.com revealed that the source of the Firedrake shortwave transmissions is a China National Radio satellite feed.

Here are some of the frequencies where Firedrake has been logged. Those wishing to hear Firedrake should try scanning around these frequencies rather than trying specific frequencies.
