Alright, @Fanbot --you're good at tracking pirate radio. These are times when there should be more clandestines out there somewhere. One would think.

Regarding my previous comments about HF Underground's bot, fanbot, being stuck in the 49 meter band then suggesting that the 25 meter band should have something on it, well, for those of you who are just discovering this medium, RN da Amazonia should provide good music listening right about now (1630 UTC, 7:30pm Central). Prior to this specified time I heard them play the classic Sergio Mendes "Mas Que Nada".

Reception conditions change over the course of the day, subject to daylight/darkness patterns, but if you're looking for a good place to start, here ya go. Shortwave radio is a great place to find pirates, such as what Radio Free Trumpistan might be someday.

All the more urgent is the #RCIActioinCommittee 's efforts to resurrect Radio Canada International. Come on, #BBC -- resurrect your World Service to the Americas.#Canada #ShortwaveRadio #InternationalBroadcasting

Propagation peculiarities of HF (high frequency) demands seasonal schedule changes to accommodate seasonal propagation changes. #HFradio #ShortwaveRadio #InternationalBroadcasting
