Undercover Radio: 6925U, 2/22, 0300-0351* Dr. Benway with prerecorded programs and live shoutouts to listeners. Talk about the new t-shirts and helping Wounded Warriors. Into QSO with Redhat (X-FM) and Blues Traveler. I've never heard the latter. If Blues Traveler is reading this, I recorded the QSO at the end and can send an MP3, if you'd like.
Blues Traveler: 6925U, 2/22, *0400-0406* Blues Traveler thanks Dr. Benway again, then starts playing Gerry Rafferty "Baker Street." Presumably, this is still Blues Traveler. Not sure if that's the name of the op or the station. I guess Dr. Benway inspired someone else to give pirate radio a shot. Fair signal here & the audio sounds good. Off with "Man, I appreciate everything you do for the Wounded Warriors. God Bless." Please QSL?
Red Mercury Labs: 6925U, 2/22, 0407-0414* I just left the radio on after Blues Traveler and I can hear faint music underneath. Maybe Emerson, Lake, & Palmer? I think I'm hearing keyboards along those lines. Talk at 0414, but really weak. According to Bowman1 on HFU, this was actually Red Mercury Labs playing Doors "Riders on the Storm." Ha!
Unid: 6925U, 2/22, *0419+ "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald." Nice signal & audio, but off with no IDs.
Cool AM: 6925, 2/24, 2304+ Turtles "Happy Together," Blue Brothers "Soul Man" etc. I'd probably call this good/fair signalwise.

Pirate Logs 11/2
Well, going to a football game took precedence over pirate DXing tonight, but evidently Redhat telepathically knew that I was disappointed that I missed most of his show last night because he's on right now:
X-FM: 6950 kHz, 0236+ Redhat DJing live and announcing the e-mail address for reports and requests. Mostly album rock tonight with "Radar Love" and "When the Bullet Hits the Bone" by Golden Earring and now Robert Plant "Lead Me On." Nice signal here again. Wall of Voodoo "Mexican Radio" (I still haven't gotten tired of hearing that one on pirate stations). Someone requested Dead Milkmen "Peter Bazooka," but this really isn't fitting in too well with the format tonight...this was followed by Toto "Africa"
Red Mercury Labs: 6936.66 kHz USB, 0400+ Playing Judas Priest & telling a story about how he borrowed a cassette of Judas Priest (the "Electric Eye" album, maybe?) and how he played it over & over. Also some talk about cassettes and when you did the wrong combination of rewinding and fast forwarding, the tape would miswind and cause the tape to just stop.
And speaking of metal, I received a QSL for a show from last night. I have a bunch of reports to send out, but it was nice to receive this eQSL already.

Pirate logs,10/28/13
A few pirate logs from 10/28:
Captain Morgan Shortwave: 6924.2 kHz, 0115. Good in QRM here. Michael Jackson "Thriller" & "Twilight Zone" theme. Halloween SFX, with screaming, crying, creaking doors, etc.
Radio Echo 1: 6929.2 kHz, 0123 UTC. Nice sig here, fading, with electronic & produced IDs and a variety of music.
Red Mercury Labs: 6935 kHz USB, 0220+. Tuned in to hear "Walk on the Wild Side" and a more subdued than usual sign-off announcement. Evidently, the end of a Lou Reed tribute show. Fair signal.
Unidentified: 6925 kHz USB, 2226 UTC. Tuned in during Van Halen "And the Cradle Will Rock" Off for a bit, then same station (?) back with a weaker signal.
