Logs from Newfoundland, May 11-17

Hi everyone: Interesting week here on "the rock". The long days of summer are really cutting into my listening now. 48m is not fading in until around 2100, 76m around 2200, and mornings, it gets light at 0745 utc. This has certainly limited my European listening. ](*,) (Special thanks to S...

Not as many logs as last week, perphaps, but several new stations, lots of great music, lots of nice greetings and amazing signals from VOTN Saturday night and Fantasy on Sunday.

thanks eveyone

Thank you everyone for the kind comments. One final note: None of my comments reffered to any operator, no matter how skeptical initially, who was willing to give me a fair chance. Nor do they refer to any operator who has reported to me that I have made a mistake. I consider it my job to prove a re...

Thank you for the comments Jan and Andy. I certainly plan to continue posting my logs as long as they are useful and interesting to others. Pirate listening is the most fun I have ever had with a radio, and nobody's skepticism is going to change that. I would actaully like to convince all remaining ...

correction

Thank you for the very kind words Foton.:oops: I still, however, consider myself to be an inexperienced rookie pirate listener compared to you and most of the regulars in chat. Unfortunately, I have just discovered that one of my logs from this weekend is one of the mistakes that I mentioned above. ...

A personal note

I feel that I should add this note after encountering several skeptical operators who have questioned my receptions. I can understand that operators may have reason to be suspicious of false reports, and I know that I seem to have come "out of nowhere" in the last few months. I do, however...

Friday night saw long, very deep fades and Relmus Radio peaked here at s5 for about 2 minutes, and several other fade ins were heard almost as well! On Saturday night, conditi...

Hi Glowbug: Thanks for the welcome. I know the rain coast well. I have family out there. Must be a real challenge to log Europirates though! I'm not sure if I am the most qualified to judge conditions. I thought last weekend was excellent, which is the total opposite of all the more experienced list...

Logs from Newfoundland, Canada

Hi everyone: This is my first post of loggings from the island of Newfoundland, off Canada's east coast. I only started listening to pirates a couple of months ago, but it has been a tremendous amount of fun. Up to last week, I was hearing mostly 100w to 1 kw stations, but two weeks ago I moved my a...

6210 heard in Newfoundland, Canada

Not sure if this was you, but I heard a station on 6210 kHz from 2106-2136 utc, saturday night. SINPO 14331, with a mix of music and talk. The best details I could distinguish were: 2106 heard "about to give out phone number" 2116 heard "48 metre band" and possibly "dot com&...
