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

Hi everyone: My listening time was limited this week, but I did get a few logs. There were a lot of stations on the air Saturday night, but conditions were only average on 48 m and very poor on 76 m. Sunday night saw very good conditions, but only a few stations on. I got up early on Sunday morning ...

Hi everyone: It was an interesting week. The weeknights were fairly quiet (Wednesday and Friday in particular) but Saturday was an extremely active night. Several stations stayed on very late, so it was quite an enjoyable night. It was great to hear Borderhunter with the usual strong signal, and Mar...

Hi everyone: Sorry for the late post, but we had some fun with Hurricane Igor here this week. Last week saw moderately good conditions, not as good as the previous week, but lots of stations heard. The big news was the continued late night shows from Black Bandit Radio. His signal has been booming i...

Hi everyone: What a great week! Conditions for transatlantic reception are definitely improving. The days are getting shorter, and that means earlier receptions here. 48 m has been fading in as early as 1900 (although Black Bandit powered through at 1735 today!). It was very interesting Saturday nig...

Hi everyone: It has been a couple of months since I last posted logs, due to the fact that I have been away from home (and the radio) for the last half of July and most of August. I was finally able to enjoy some radio time this weekend, however, and conditions were extremely good! Before I start my...

Hi everyone: It has been several weeks since I have posted my logs. I have been listening regularly, but I have also been extremely busy with work and a few other things. One of those things has been planning a European vacation, including Holland. I will be at the Summermeeting on Saturday, and I h...

Hi Everyone: Once again, I got behind on my logs and posting, and I have just caught up again. Because of work and other commitments, I have had limited hobby time, and I have used it listening. Conditons have been excellent this past month. Evenings on 48 m have been exceptional. My only complaint ...

Hi everyone: It has been a long time since I have been able to post my logs. A combination of very long work hours, travel and family left very limited hobby time, which I just spent listening. I have spent the last couple of days reviewing audio files, and I have been amazed at how good the conditi...

Hi everyone: Sorry for the delay in posting, but work has been consuming a lot of my time. Conditions for the past two weeks have been mostly poor, but there have been some exceptions. The weekend of March 12-14 was noisy Friday and Saturday, but good conditions Sunday evening (I slept in Sunday mor...

Congrats Dave. That is an amazing numer of stations. Glad to see you had good conditions down there. Reading your logs is almost enough to tempt me to get one of those Perseus receivers. The amount of detail that you get, compared to my "dial-and-hunt" method, is just incredible. It is cer...

Thanks for your nice replies guys. :oops: Nice to see you again Glowbug! It's been a while. BoB, that is good news. I would love to log you 21 MHz. Dave, I'm hoping this weekend is good too. If we have conditions anywhere close to last Saturday, I am sure it will be fun. Ray: I'm not sure that it wa...

Hi everyone: It was a very interesting and enjoyable weekend. Conditions Saturday night were among the best I have ever seen. Borderhunter was booming in here, Spaceman was quite clear, and Black Arrow and Northcoast were clear enough for positive IDs. Signals were so good that it seemed like a reco...

Hi everyone: Sorry for the delay in posting these logs. It has been a busy week at work. Last weekend saw good conditions here. Friday night I had a lot of noise, but I traced the problem to the soil around my grounding rods being too dry. Unfortunately, it was also frozen, but i managed to thaw the...

Hi everyone: Just a few logs this time, from the last two weekends. The noise level has been high, which I have discovered has been due to the soil around my grounding rods drying out. Fortunately, this is easily fixed. I have also been very busy at work, but I hope this will improve soon. I did che...

Thanks for the replies. One correction :oops: : My log from Saturday, Feb. 6 9290,0 . . 1414-1430 .

Mike Radio , moved here to avoid QRM, slightly stronger signal, 24331 Sorry Mike....
