Hearing a station playing old-time country (or gospel) music mixed in with
what sounds like a male announcer
preaching a sermon.

Receiving this fairly weak (S-5) with a lot of QRM into northern Virginia.
(thank god for notch filters !!!)

Anyone have any info on this station ?

Since the FCC closed all their monitoring stations seven
years ago, the number of pirates and unlicensed activity
on HF has jumped by quantum leaps. We are observing
pirates in the 6600 khz range, which is reserved for
aero ops, something which was unheard of in the days of
active FCC enforcement.

I'd guess the number of FM pirates has risen too? I haven't heard any
in my city in quite awhile but we have "resident agents" so maybe
thats why....
