London Calling.

Post by Andy Richards »

I didn't have much time to listen yesterday but plenty of stations on the air today.

Conditions meant that stations came in and then dropped out very quickly.Even the strong ones.This caused problems in NL as Pirates couldn't hear each other.

It is always nice to hear stations that are not on regularly.This week we had a few of those;

Atlantic 2000 had an interesting Pirate/DX programme via Mystery Radio.Lots of good Radio info.

Radio Devalon had perhaps their best signal with me so far with an interesting programme of Pirate logs and recordings.

Bluestar Radio via the relay on 6140.

Radio Free London - Nice to hear these old Pirates still have it in them.Some really good old Rock and Blues music too.(Some of it was even too old for me to remember!!).But 6400 is no good with me after 1300.The Russian station is much too strong.So I couldn't listen to Jack's
show :-(

Talking of Blues........there was Radio Zodiac too.Nice music,but obviously I am biased!

Radio Brandaris had a really Jazzy thing going today.It was great!I like him as a presenter too.
Good voice.

Strongest signals with me today were Radio Boomerang,Radio Borderhunter and Radio Scotland.
