Pirate Radio Recordings: Wolverine Radio
Wolverine Radio was the strongest of the pirate radio stations I heard last night. Wolverine was broadcasting on 6.935 MHz in the upper side band. Very good signal and excellent fidelity for SSB. Typical of Wolverine, lots of music variety and … Continue reading
Pirate Radio Recordings: Bust A Nut Radio
Bust A Nut Radio‘s AM signal came in fairly strong last night sometime around 5:45 UTC (February 2nd) on 6,940 kHz. You’ll hear a great variety of music–from classic rock to electronica–complete with originally produced ID’s and bumpers in this … Continue reading
Pirate Radio Recordings: Red Mercury Labs
Last Saturday night, I caught the shortwave radio pirate, Red Mercury Labs, on 6.9251 MHz in the upper side band. This broadcast, which started around 1:57 UTC, contains a great mix of rock music with some commentary throughout. You can … Continue reading
Pirate Radio Recordings: Two short UNID broadcasts
I was travelling Saturday night, but had the foresight to set my WinRadio Excalibur to record the pirate spectrum. There were few pirates on the band–less than I would have expected to hear on a holiday weekend in the US–and some … Continue reading
Pirate Radio Recordings: Renegade Radio
Friday night (late) I caught Renegade Radio on 6.93 MHz in the upper side band. Renegade’s signal was consistently clear for unusually noisy conditions, though the station was occasionally plagued with transmitter problems. I did not edit these out in … Continue reading
Pirate Radio Recordings: Dit Dah Radio
Being a fan of Morse code (or CW), I have a special affinity for pirates that use “the sacred language” in their broadcasts. Last night, around 00:30 UTC (only a few minutes after WKND began broadcasting) I heard Morse Code on 6.935 MHz … Continue reading
Pirate Radio Recordings: WKND
The holidays are a great time to listen for pirates on the shortwave spectrum. Since many pirates are on holiday leave from their day jobs, they have a little more time to broadcast. Last night, the first pirate I heard … Continue reading

Pirate Radio Recordings: Liquid Radio
Last weekend, I also managed to record the shortwave radio pirate known as Liquid Radio–perhaps best known for their activity on the FM spectrum and on the web. Liquid Radio’s format couldn’t be more different than our last pirate recording from … Continue reading
Pirate Radio Recordings: Radio Casablanca
On Sunday, December 17th, around 22:00 UTC, I happened to pick up the last thirty minutes of Radio Casablanca; a pirate that plays a nostalgic mix of music from the 1930′s and 1940′s. They were broadcasting on 6939 kHz in AM. Close … Continue reading
Pirate Radio Recordings: Wolverine Radio, Dec 8 2012
Wolverine Radio’s upper side band signal came in loud and clear last Sunday (December 9, 2012) sometime around 2:25 UTC on 6940 kHz. Another great mix of music, complete with their interval signal. It seems that their broadcast ended abruptly–no … Continue reading
