Where in FL? I am in Hobe Sound(Martin County) using a variety of radios,
mostly restored boatanchors and portables(newest one is a CCrane SW/AM).
Have a 20' long wire, one mile from the ocean.

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.

Fort Walton Beach, Okaloosa County. Radio wise, it's difficult at times
with Eglin AFB and Hurlburt Field on opposite sides of me, but I do well
enough picking up stations.

Spent many good times at Fort Walton Beach/Pensacola area. When I was in
the AF, we used to fly to Hurlburt Field/7th ACCS flying C-130s.
BTW, on the AMBCB, can you get WPHT 1210 clearly? Down here, there are
Spanish speaking stations on every AM frequency on the dial. I can get
Philly if I use my loop, but all the other clear channels can't make it down
here due to the interference. There is a Cuban on 880, now there is a Dade
County station on 880 also! WCBS is getting it from both directions.

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.

Hmmm - I guess without DRM, I'm not there either!
