Thanks to Alexandr for help with the hooligans! (I wouldn't have had more than one correct ID without him!)
Alexandr has provided me with lots of really interesting information about Russian/Ukrainian radio hooliganism. Certainly an interesting phenomenon! (A bit like the Dutch tradition?)
There seem to be radio hooligans in the entire ex-Soviet Union (including the tundra: http://www.udxf.nl/voices from the tundra.pdf), but there are particularly many in South-West Russia and in the Russian-speaking parts of Ukraine (I was surprised to hear so many from farther north this time).
According to Alexandr, there were probably radio hooligans very early in the radio history, but it seems that radio hooliganism (just like Dutch pirate radio) took off for real in the 1950s.
Of course, today's radio hooligans are essentially just unlicensed hams, but there were actually music stations as well at one point (a very interesting article about that: http://www.time.com/time/magazine/artic ... 20,00.html). And as you can see from my log, some of today’s radio hooligans on 3 MHz will occasionally play a song or two.
