At 16:57EST they are S7~S9 here in Lexington
KY. Using a R2000 and a ~70' wire antenna.
Any idea where the TX is?

No idea. And they certainly don't want to many folk knowing!

It's a pirate after all.

Well you probably know it wasn't 'freaking'!

But at any rate it was indeed interesting.

I am as uncouth as the next guy, but I figure
there may be nice and decent people here.
My wife say's there are times I am worse
then a salior. Mainly when I have to work
on any plumbing problem. God Ihate
plumbing.
The new station is running one of my favorites,
"Almost Cut My Hhair".
Almost as much fun as when I got my first R2000 and
my wife and I went to the Red River Gorge (about 100
miles southeast of here. And the very first thing I received
was Niel Yong's Cover of Ian Tyson's "Four Strong Winds".
It was on CFRB.
Iran Man Radio just SO at 17:38.
Too damn bad I didn't get my newly rewired system
to record it! I missed the address!
I am using ne R2000 for WWV,,,, which will go to the left
and the other R2000 to hunt. This way I can assign accurate
times later!
I am still rewiring the desk to include the new R2000.
Some bugs and operator head clogs to deal with.
Someone esle is tuning up. 17:40

The 6925 pirate is S-5 with QSB
here in North Texas, playing "Ally-Op."
Pretty good music audio for a pirate,
but the announcer is undermodulated and
has the "mush-mouth." I wish these guys would
learn that, if they want to be heard,
they must speak clearly.

Whoever this pirate is, he's foolhardy
unless he's on the move in some backwater.
The FCC's direction finding is pretty good;
they can have him down to part of a city in just moments.
If any of Mr. Hollingsworth's network of volunteer snitches
is close by, he's already toast.
Too bad, by my lights; I don't think these people hurt
anyone and they're usually entertaining.

This makes me wonder, whatever happened to Lad?
Last I heard he was sent away to a military school
by his folks.

Does anybody ever check out that Pirate Radio over yonder on that hill
in Ireland? I want to check it out but where and at what time of the day
or night would I find it on my Shortwave Radio?

I agree. They harm no one. They provide something different from
the incessent drum-beat of loony "Jesus radio" on shortwave
(I wish the guy would "come back" already and get it over with,
for Him's sake!). They're entertaining, if done well.
And it's a waste of tax dollars to spend resources chasing them down.
I say leave them alone and enjoy.
