This is a list I have compiled based on loggings here on the HFU. It shows all the North American shortwave pirates heard in the month of April 2024. Note that many stations use multiple names so determining the number of actual transmitters in use is impossible. Some stations are also active so infrequently that they may not have been logged this month but may broadcast in the future. Stations are listed alphabetically and show the station name followed by the number of loggings in April 2024.

Most Active Station: 77LJS (15)
Total broadcasts this month: 173

Surprised to see R. Free Whatever only having three. I remember they used to be far more active.

Thanks for your cataloguing though, this is extremely resourceful. At least the pirates keep providing something good to listen to on SW.
