Pirate Radio Logs – May 1-2

I was able to kick the local QRN I mentioned the other day. The culprit turned out to be a Western Digital ‘The Book’ USB drive, that joker was putting out massive 10 khz wide blobs of noise spaced every 30 kHz from LF to about 20 mHz. Now I can listen to some pirates!
Northwoods [...]

My apologies for this late posting! I accidentally took a nap after work, and just never got caught up after sitting down at the controls of the Perseus. Some of these logs are “live”, and others are being harvest this morning from the Perseus dirft-net. Crazy active night for the middle of the week!
