Free radio pirates on medium and short wave messageboard of alfa lima

Good conditions, but most stations swamped by local television noise... 25th January 1645kHz, Vriendschap Radio, s/on 2052UTC with music and reports to Meteor etc. S/off 2054. 43333. 1652kHz, Jan Schnabel giving reports at 2312. 33333. 26th January 1635kHz, Tijdbreker Radio with ID and SMS no at 232...

Thanks, Jarno -- hope to hear you again soon!

Odd conditions again, some very strong signals but fading in and out at random. Just before I tuned out at 1345, I copied a blurred weather fax map which I think was from Halifax, Canada on 6330kHz: unusual for this frequency and time of day (for me anyway). Maybe some signals made it across the pon...

Heard you in Glasgow 0848 playing "Another One Bites the Dust" -- very weak, maybe SINPO 24322, but not bad for 7 watts! I'll try to get a recording, but not sure if it'll take.

Best,

Peter

Exceptional in Glasgow, 45444 S9+20 at 0808 with ID and addresses in Dutch, then English ID and playing Creedence Clearwater Revival.

Good morning!

Peter

Quite weak in Glasgow, maybe 24322, playing "Caroline" at 1318 then testing the mike "1.2.1.2" and giving multiple IDs. "Space Oddity" at 1321.

Good luck,

Peter

I caught West Coast on 3925 just as it closed down: canned ID, then slowed-down recording, then birdsong and off air 0046UTC. SINPO 34433, best signal I've ever had from you on 48 or 76 -- congratulations!

Peter

Amazingly strong QSO round tonight on 180m: I've never ID'ed so many stations in one night: 1620kHz, UNID (maybe De Stroper, as it was mentioned by Orion later), 2248UTC playing old Dutch music. 32322 with bad TVI. 1645kHz, Zender James Bond, 2235 rep to Jeneverstoker (?) and Orion. 2237 off, back a...

Not much IDed through the static and fading: I think conditions might have been better Sunday afternoon, but I only had a few minutes to check. Saturday 20th 6305kHz, Orion Radio, 0917UTC playing "Orinoco Flow" by Enya. 43333, S9+20 on peaks. 6400kHz, Radio RP, heard briefly giving ID and ...

Very clear in Glasgow at 0812, hoping problems are solved and playing "Like a Rolling Stone". Signal wasn't there 5 minutes ago, but now 45433, S9+10.

Good luck with the new frequency!

Peter

Orion R. strong on approx 6305kHz at 0917, playing "Orinoco Flow" by Enya and mentioning that his antenna has survived the storms. S9+20 on peaks, 43333 overall with local TVI and static...

All best,

Peter

FRG-7 + indoor wire

Zender Toekomst strong here at 2302UTC on 1652kHz, SINPO 44333, giving reports to Digital, Monte Carlo, Barones and Ijsselstein. Back at 2332 and 0009. Barones reporting back on 1645kHz at 2314, to Toekomst, MC, Ijsselstein and Digital. Off air 2318. 44333. Jan Schnabel reporting to Digital and Toek...

Wow, simultaneity!

Best,

Peter

R. Barones pushing S9+20, SINPO 44444, on 1645kHz right now in Glasgow. Greeting DJ Dipol at 1940, playing a Dutch version of "Yes, We Have No Bananas" and greeting Jari in Finland at 2004. He's using a canned ID of somebody with a London accent (I think) saying "Barones 1645" ! ...

Sorry I'm late in posting -- I could hear music faintly here on 3925 at around 2300 last night, but never strong enough to hear an ID. Some SSB QRM too, SINPO maybe 23221...

Best of luck,

Peter
