Nice weekend with many stations on the air. Also some stations that I have not heard before. This is of course great, the piratescene is developing all the time. You never know what will appear on a frequency.
On Sunday I didn´t hear the tests around 6810 kHz by Altrex and Central, I simply didn´t check that part of the shortwave. Sometimes it would be nice to have the computer and receiver in the same room and get some tips from Iann's chat, Alfa Lima and other sources. But it is also fun listening on your own, perhaps you hear something the others don´t hear if they all follow each other through the bands ...heh...
It is good we live in a free world and can listen how and to what ever we want. Yesss!
FFFR!
