Might there not be two separate transmitters, operating on some sort of an
alternating schedule with the intent of making it harder to pin down ?

1710 Russian decent, (weak/medium), 1140-1150, fading to poor/weak after
that, back weak again 1225, continuing, presently poor to very poor 1248.
Yesterday had what could have been a short interval signal then possible ID,
right at 1200 utc but apparently was just rando
Checked the radio for about 10 minutes this morning at 1135UT, when JOUB-774
was being heard weakly (ID'd by direction); the only other audio was on 738 at
1146UT, which seemed to be Tahiti by direction. Good carriers on 279, 1287,
1566 ( all Asia), and 1098 plus 1503, both DU.

Yes, this is getting interesting. I guess we have to ask the
question, "How many DXers does it take to ID a Russian language
station on 1710?"
As Guy Atkins posed,
A drive between the two
neighborhoods should settle this once and for all.

After work today I used a portable radio with a ferrite antenna and zeroed in
on the transmitter. Just a few blocks west from the Home Depot as mentioned
earlier. Appears to be mounted to the roof of a private residence.

Guys,
This is amazing. A Russian pirate operating from a private residence in
the Puget Sound area. But the programming still sounds like it may be a
relay of some broadcaster. Great going!

That satellite dish on the same roof is probably picking up the programming
stream. That's not a typical 18" DISH/DirecTV setup.

I've been following this thread with interest. I'm a bit too far away to get
them. I was just thinking that a pirate station would not have the resources to
generate 24 hour a day programming that this station does. What are the chances
they are relaying the Internet feed of some station in Russ

Congratulations! This has been an exciting and interesting chase. I have
been watching with great interest.

Most of the Dish ethnic programming is on either the 148 pr 61.5 bird.
The 148 is fairly high in the sky, but the 61.5, the dish is basically
looking at the ground at 10 degrees above the horizon, here in the NW.
The regular programming is on the 110 & 119 positions. 129 is for HD.
But I don't know

In further close observation of the dish on the roof, it does not look
like a Direct/Dish network one, but a DVB Galaxy 25 offset dish, a bit
lower on the horizon, so my guess is that the dish is indeed picking up
Russian programming off G25. I think it is around 93 degrees West. I

Patrick,
My guess would be a G25 DVB dish set up. I don't know of any Russian
audio services on Dish, but there are several TV and radio services on
G25. Tonight, after dark I will see if I can pick up any audio services
on G25 and look for a //. I do get some Russian TV stations, but I have

I checked G25 for radio services in Russian and there are several, but
all are scrambled, so a subscription is needed to receive those
service(s). I get a couple hundred TV and 100 audio/radio services on
the KU side of G25, but the rest are scrambled. I do get a few Russian
TV stations, including
Hey Tom in Brier - did you get the address of the house? Perhaps a
reverse address search will turn up the name of the person to whom one

When I called KCIS yesterday, CE Bryan Hubert was interested in the
1710 transmission to the point where he asked Chris Wartes, an
occasional contract engineer who does engineering for KSER (FM) but
is actually in to photography, to scout it out. Chris was the actual
person who took signal
Are we possibly jumping the gun here in thinking the programming is from
Russia? Walt has already emphasized the 1710 station is airing Christian
programming in the Russian language. It seems unlikely to me that a
non-Christian country, Russia, would be broadcasting a Christian program on
satel
The house next to it was 2324 119th St SW unit 2 so it stands to reason that
the house with the xmtr is unit 1. Couldn't see their house number but there
were several cars parked there and the garage door was open. Looks like they
were home.
