What is this, please? Is this a pirate or legit?

I thought it was the BBC but nothing listed. Could be a pirate
but....15755 is the frequency for "The Disco Palace" a DRM station
which is on now 20:20UT. 15750-15760kHz. It is supposed to be in
Miami. Maybe they took a break from DRM earlier. At 1500UT they list a
program called "top 3 of the UK singles chart"

I did not think they were giving out DRM licences to US stations.
Maybe its beaming offshore. No idea. I am listening to it now in DRM.
Playing Bee Gees. Good enough signal to support 20.96 kBits/sec -
Stereo transmission format.

After looking again in the SW scehdules I notice that Disco Palace
transmitter (relay) 15755kHz is on Bonaire in the Netherlands,
Antilles. So that explains how they get around the DRM license.

Still a good possible source of that UKRTW broadcast.
