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

Not a bad weekend.Maybe conditions are still not there yet,but there was plenty to listen to.
And a few surprises too.
Laser with a fair signal on 4026 but still poor on 6210 for me.But at least I could hear them.
Nothing from their fellow Irish station Atlantic.
Did I miss Skyline on 3905 on Friday night?Or did he take a day off?
Orion was there as usual this morning.I got up early enough to hear him firing up the TX!
Nice signal and programme as always.
I love Radio Altrex......!Not a great signal here today,but what other station have you ever heard of that can be
ID'd as soon as you hear a "Mooooo!" jingle!Brilliant.
I said earlier that there were a few surprises today.
The first one was Radio Saxonia.What a signal!Never heard him this well.Did he have help?
The second surprise was the high quality programme from Cool AM/Powerline..very good.
The third was Chris Watson on Geronimo.Not as slick a presenter as Dave Scott but I found his chat very
interesting and the music was superb.More please!
Best signal of the weekend goes to Scotland(Just!) then Orion,FRSH and Geronimo.
Most heard voice of the weekend goes to Dave Scott on his multiple FRSH and Geronimo programmes.
I'm not complaining though as he is an excellent presenter and,in my opinion,has superb taste in music too!

Hello Andy,

thanks for the report and comment, much appreciated.

Thank you Andy. Your comments are really appreciated and are what makes it all worth while.

Yes I agree it was great to hear Geronimo operator Chris on the air for the first time in many years. Good to hear chat from one of SW free radio's most dedicated operators and it would be great to hear him again!
