Here are a few logs from the past few days. I was listening on a Collins R-388, connected to a random longwire. Unfortunately, my R-5000 power cord was being used on the DVD player (gotta get another power cord!) at the time and the PTO on the R-388 varies from on frequency to as much as +2 kHz, so my frequencies in the following logs arent dead on.
SWBC Galei Zahal, 6973, 3/27, 0100+ SIO:444 Pop and US music for a while, then a long telephone interview with a woman. The strongest Ive heardem in about a month. (Yoder,PA) ZBC Zimbabwe: 6688, 3/25, 2240+ Pop and reggae songs. I had it on for background music for more than an hour. Mostly music early on, but then went into some talk programming later. I was hoping for Sudan or Somalia, but Ed Rausch got the ZBC ID later on (Thanks, Ed!). On 3/26, they were back to 6612 kHz (Yoder,PA) Europirate Mystery Radio: 6220, 3/26, 0100+ Better-than-normal signal here, prob. about SIO:343. Techno & pop music with rare announcements. (Yoder,PA) NA Pirate Dark Night Radio: 6925U, 3/26, 0400+ Announced e-mail address as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Not too bad at tune in with country music. Mostly faded out after a few min., but occasionally faded up. Announcer talked a lot & he has some echo on his voice...kinda reminds me of the sound of some CBers. (Yoder,PA) KCBM: 6990U, 3/26, 0400+ Think I had the Ken & Barry show here, but I just couldnt tune in the weak SSB with the BFO on the R-388. (Yoder,PA) WTPR: 6925U, 3/25, 2350+ Tire Pressure Radio Basically an audio version of a chain letter. Very well produced show about different DXers who didnt heed the warnings of the show, kept listening, and later discovered that their car had flat tires or low tire pressure. Awesome signal here. Great show! I listened to the end...and I still have tire pressure! He also didn't mention my name, so the gods of tire pressure must be smiling down on me...Please QSL! (Yoder,PA) Radio 6: 6932, 3/24, 0040 Pretty decent on fade ups with a blues song with harmonica. I mostly lost it after some SSB QRM (Yoder,PA) QSLs MAC Shortwave: 6950 f/d color logo card for 2 e-mailed reports. In abt. 2 months. Thanks!
