PIRATE (Euro). 6239.4, BRI via JRRI, 0701-0917 Dec 11, Very weak at tune-in, at threshold levels. Signal continued to improve, and was easily the strongest signal on 48 meters this morning. A John Peel tribute show was aired around 0750. Played the Beat's "Too Nice to Talk Too". The "A-Team" theme music at 0844, with audio still there at 0917. At the peak in propagation, SINPO was 34443. (Maroti-NY)

PIRATE (Euro). 6259.7, UNID, 0804-0806 Dec 11, This may have been on as early as 0715, as I had a carrier a bit higher then, on 6259.9 kHz. Strong utility station QRM, so I didn't stick with this one. (Maroti-NY)

PIRATE (Euro). 6275.62, Radio Dr. Tim (presumed), 2342-2347 Dec 10, Tuned here after receiving an e-mail from Dr. Tim. Heard some talk at 2343, then some rock music at 2344. SINPO only 13331. (Maroti-NY)

PIRATE (Euro). 6275.7, Radio Dr. Tim (presumed), 0721-0724 Dec 11, Carrier first noted at 0721, wasn't there at 0700 bandscan. Just too weak to copy. Presumed Dr. Tim, as this was the frequency he announced the night before. (Maroti-NY)

PIRATE (Euro). 6301.94, Radio Boomerang, 2017-2022 Dec 10, Tuned in during "Maryanne", then an ID in Dutch. At 2022, mention that this was a short test, 6301 kHz, then BTO "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet". He changed frequencies at this point. SINPO 34333. (Maroti-NY)

PIRATE (Euro). 6303.5, UNID, 2350-2354 Dec 10, Only caught the end of this transmission. Recognized "We Love the Pirate Stations" at 2350, talk by male at 2354. Too weak to copy speech. SINPO 14331. Please help ID this station. (Maroti-NY)

PIRATE (Euro). 6305.1, Radio Mazda, 2006-2045 Dec 10, Some music at tune-in, but faint. A polka at 2037, ID at 2045. Gone by 2100 re-check. Signal was much weaker than Boomerang's. SINPO 14332. (Maroti-NY)

PIRATE (Euro). 6305.1, Radio Mazda, 0848-0903 Dec 11, A polka at tune-in, "Listen to the Music" at 0903. Ham QRM on USB. ID'd later by Rinus. SINPO 23322. (Maroti-NY)

PIRATE (Euro). 6309.94, Radio Boomerang, 2024-2035* Dec 10, "Do They Know it's Christmas", "Paranoid", a polka, "Sandstorm", ID at 2031, and off at 2035. SINPO 34333. (Maroti-NY)

PIRATE (Euro). 6310, UNID, 0724-0725 Dec 11, Just a carrier, which was soon gone. Thought it could be Underground, but his carrier came on later on 6311. Any ideas who this may have been? (Maroti-NY)

PIRATE (Euro). 6311.04, Radio Underground, 0855-0916 Dec 11, Carrier seemingly on 6310.94 at 0852, but was at 6311.04 at 0855. Snippet of audio at 0900, but too weak to copy. Wish it had come on a half hour earlier. (Maroti-NY)

PIRATE (Euro). 6380, Orion Radio, 0830-0832 Dec 11, By now the Dutch stations were rather weak. Recognized John's voice at tune-in. (Maroti-NY)

PIRATE (Euro). 15073.5, Alfa Lima Int'l, 1454-1540 Dec 11, Signal varying between S5 and S8, depending on the fades. Usual techno music, Sandstorm at 1536 UTC. Greeting to Jerry Strawman in Iowa. (Maroti-NY)

I believe this was a German station, "Mega Radio." Many IDs of Asian-sounding female singing ID. Music seemed to be German. I listened 0722-0738, until signal deteriorated badly. Professional sounding. Anybody have an address?
