Borderhunter Radio: December 27, 2013

Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Andy Robins, who shares the following recording and notes:A recording of European pirate station Borderhunter Radio as heard in Kalamazoo, Michigan, on 21.455 MHz from 1617 UTC on 27 December 2013. The station is located on the border of the Netherlands and Belgium. This was a special "Global Pirate Weekend" test transmission for the benefit of shortwave radio listeners in North America. The station's operator varied the transmitter power from a high of 300 watts to a low of one-half watt (500 milliwatts). Audio was detectable even at that extremely low power.Receiver and antenna: Icom R-75 with a PA0RDT active "miniwhip" antenna
