Pirates just off hf end of medium wave
Who are these AM pirates. Most seem to be Dutchmen as far as I can tell,
playing music from their own country, but every now and then you get something you recognise. Sometimes they speak English and explain something about their aerial or somesuch, but is this some kind of tradition or what? There used to be UK ones at one time.

Erm, yes, and their channel spacings are different too, but how is this
related to pirates here in the UK from Europe? Brian -- Brian Gaff - Note:- In order to reduce spam, any email without 'Brian Gaff' in the display name may be lost. Blind user, so no pictures please!

It is standard practise to give one's location, the frequency of interest, and the time when discussing radio events. I do not try to divine the above data by reverse engineering 2 lines of IP routing history. |
