It's been a while since they have been reported. Perhaps they were on holiday?

SINPO 35434 with rapid fading on an SDR in Denmark. Usual programming. Some sort of 1920s recordings based upon the audio quality.
Just somebody with a radio, a computer and a pair of headphones...

- It wasn't like that. The RUDX blog reported that the radio supervision authorities interfered with the work of stations operating outside the ITU band.

Sounds like a confusion with WMR on 5840    :-(

Only partially related but I'm fairly sure that Danish authorities have no jurisdiction over the location of Charleston Radio.   :D

The operator of Charleston Radio Int announced on his Facebook page on Sept 7 that the station would be off air for a few weeks as he was going on vacation. As the station is a pirate it doesn't have any licensing issues.
