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

Hi,
Thanks to everyone who's broadcasting right now, but unfortunately the signals just aren't quite making it to me--they must all be going to Dave...he's created some sort of DX black hole around Dunlo.

Anyway, lots of carriers, but very little audio for me. I'm disappointed because I strung out a 300' antenna in the afternoon. I thought I'd do better.

FRSH via Mystery, 6220, 0805+ Fair sig. Sign on with countdown & heavily produced, working in IS, etc. Repeated addresses, phone #, etc. Not a bad signal, but Mystery usually does better here

R. Boomerang: 6260, 0802-0810+ Good (and wide) carrier, but weak audio. "You are listening to Radio Boomerang" at 0802, then into Bangles "Walk Like an Egyptian" Not 100% sure of the ID because it was weak & I didn't re-listen to the recording.

And now the carriers. Not all of these are probably pirates, some possibly utilities, etc., but I heard the following around 0800: 3905, 3924.95, 3945, 5810 (Playback Int'l?), 5820 (Orion R.?), 6240.3, and 6310.

Again, thanks to everyone who took the effort to broadcast. Have a great morning..it's now 4:30 AM here & I'm going to check the radio again & then go back to bed

Hi Andrew,

So, this phenomenon isn't localized to the west coast? Sad to hear it exists, but good to know I ain't crazy!

Cheers!

Whoops...also the Boomerang log should be in the 0900 time frame, not 0800.

When I went back to the radio after typing the logs at 0940, the signals were weaker still, but FRSH was still there and I had carriers at 6264.84, 6280, and 6310.
