Pirate logs from Free Radio Weekly

All times UTC // parallel frequency *sign-on sign-off*

Channel Z Radio
6925AM 9/7 *1316-1433* SIO=333. Announced as a program of exclusively instrutmental music, and then that is what they aired. Usual slogan IDs of "the last channel that you'll ever need." Some of the tunes were obscure, and I remembered few of the titles. Program also contained a contest. A "special prize" offered to the DXer who sends in the most correct song titles from the show. Reports and contest entries should be sent via the Blue Ridge Summit drop. (G.Zeller-OH)


Liquid Radio
6925.5 AM 09/16 22:00-42 SINPO 24322 Liquid Radio ID at 22:02, Into dance music I Wanna Dance, and many others I am not familiar with. Many IDs given but a mediocre signal in medium to high static levels punctuated with crashes and the occasional utility signals made for a hard listen. Liquid Radio is using the Corsair transmitter.

6925.5 AM 09/17 01:00 SINPO 35322 Quick ID at 01:01. Typical dance music, gone by 01:13 (Ragnar-MI) 6925.5 AM 09/18 23:00-23:46 SINPO 25322 dance music with a Latin vibe, Pac Man Music, into a slower ballad. ID at 23:13 Liquid seems to be playing a slightly different play list and musical style tonight.(Ragnar-MI)


Radio Jamba International/Sycko
6926USB 9/7 0113-0125(faded out) Good signal while it lasted. Rapmusic with a request to post on the Pirate Radio IRC channels. Lots of profanity. (Majewski CT)

6925USB 9/8 0030-0134 Good signal. The show started with Radio Jamba ID and later went to Sycko Radio ID. It was the usual maddness with singers like MoJo Nixon. At one point, Sycko was talking with another operator about the Corsair transmitter. (Majewski CT)

6925USB 9/8 0026-0055 ID followed by live interview with Bad Andya bout experimentation and building Corsair equipment. Fair with occasional deep fades. (D'Angelo-PA)

Wolverine Radio
6925USB 09/14 02:03-02:20 SIO 25422 Behind Blue Eyes faintly comingin. A quick Wolverine Radio ID then into Won't Get Fooled Again. Faint but steady signal in low noise. SSTV after sign off. (Ragnar-MI)
