Hello,

tonight 18H09 UTC on the 48 meters band i got these frequencies used by "not" pirate stations :
6205
6250
6260
6290
6300
6335

Some of these stations are very powerful. It is more and more difficult to find a free frequency for pirates on the 48 meters band at this time of the day.

Greetings.

If you then add in the various utility stations - some of which are also very strong - which knock out more frequencies - it is difficult to find clear channels.

No wonder many pirate stations tend to go the same frequencies, ie. 6275, 6305, 6310 etc.

On this side of the planet, those frequencies are assigned maritime mobile. Lots of ship-to-ship chit chat, as well as WEFAX.
