Firedrake is the unofficial name of a shortwave broadcast featuring loud oriental orchestral music. It exists solely to jam other signals, such as broadcasts by Sound of Hope. The broadcasts only contain the music; no form of on-air identification has ever been reported. An article on satdirectory.com revealed that the source of the Firedrake shortwave transmissions is a China National Radio satellite feed.

Reception logs are regularly published in Glenn Hauser's DX Listening Digest.

Frequencies:

  • 9000 kHz (Aug 2009)
  • 10210 kHz (Sep 2009)
  • 11540 kHz (Jun 2007)
  • 11795 kHz (Jun 2007)
