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

These loggings are a mix of both what was received here and on the Bedfordshire UK web receiver. Those on the web receiver are marked as such. Order is by date and time. Conditions this morning (4 Jan.) weren't good enough to make a trip up to the remote site.

Thanks for the logs, Dave! I've been listening since Boxing Day, too, but haven't had any luck, aside from Mystery Radio & carriers. Seems like conditions have been really bad and most stations are signing on too late (judging from UKDXer's blog & Achim's blog). I listened from 0830-0915 today while checking the blogs, but I couldn't hear Altrex, Dr. Tim, Orion, or Misti, so I went back to bed.

Maybe next week...

Thanks Dave and Andrew. We where on 5815kc Dave, but the voice could have been from R. Tina too. The songs are loged here but not the voice
Happy New Year to you both, if I didn't say if before
