Shortwave Pirate Radio In North America And Around The World, And Other Signals That Go Bump In The Night
We seek to understand and document all radio transmissions, legal and otherwise, as part of the radio listening hobby. We do not encourage any radio operations contrary to regulations.
Always consult with the appropriate authorities if you have questions concerning what is permissible in your locale.
Maybe it's the guy in the desert or.... may be even closer to you, lol
Once I was down on one of the Fiji Islands and tuned across the CB band. There was quite the pile up coming out of America!

HF Beacons / Re: 2097.3 kHz. "A" Beacon Returns...Again...

Generally sunrise and sunset listening hours are trashed here by local solar grid tie inverters firing up, wandering the 2 MHz spectrum with +40 dB peaks of noise. Thank goodness for SDRs!

HF Beacons / Re: New beacon on 4095.16? MUDDUCK?
« on: January 10, 2022, 1515 UTC »Coincidentally, when listening to DX on the CB band, I often hear a guy with the handle Mud Duck Radio, with a QTH in the "desert southwest".

HF Beacons / Re: Un-ID Beacon on 4096 last night "TCO" ?
« on: January 08, 2022, 1501 UTC »
Token believes it to be a once in a while pirate station (KPZL) that shows up around new years, tries transmitting here and there to "puzzle" listeners and then it goes off the air.

I've not hear "A" at home in a while but I did hear it just now on an Arizona kiwi

I copied KPZL on New Years and that was interesting but ultimately it was a flash in the pan. TCO's CW seemed far slower than KPZL's but I've already erased my recording of KPZL so I don't have any proof.

It was TCO and that was good luck to have caught it too. It appears to be off the air right now but am hoping it is a night time only beacon and not some random electrical failure.

I'm rooting for it to come back. We've had far too many new beacons get caught up in infant mortality issues. Wish I could help them all recover and stay on the air.
