Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Bryce Belcher, who shares the following recording and notes:

Broadcaster: Smoky Dog Radio

Date of recording: October 16, 2023

Starting time: 00:35 UTC

Frequency: 6.27 MHz

Reception location: Columbus, Ohio

Receiver and antenna: Tecsun PL880 with the telescopic antenna.

Mode: Single Side Band

Notes: Last night I caught two pirate radio stations. Here is one of them I recorded. Smokey dog radio was on 6.27 MHz last night. It was a pretty good signal here in Columbus, Ohio. I was also able to receive it on the NA5B WebbSDR in Washington DC, But I thought I would record it with my radio because it had a pretty good signal. I'd say it was a pretty good signal for a pirate. especially for me using a telescopic antenna with my Tecsun PL880. Recorded 8:35 PM eastern (00:35, UTC).

Broadcaster: Radio Saudi International

Date of recording: September 04, 2023

Starting time: 9:00 UTC

Frequency: 15.120MHz

Reception location: Miami, Florida, U.S.A.

Receiver and antenna: Tecsun PL-310ET, homemade copper beam antenna

Notes: This was the Islamic Call to Prayer (Adhan), This was the Bengali service of Radio Saudi International, Bengali is mainly spoken in North Eastern India and so that's where I pointed the antenna instead of pointing directly as Saudi Arabia.

Adventist World Radio's Wavescan: May 21, 2023

Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Việt Anh Phạm, who shares the following recording and notes:

Date of recording: May 21, 2023

Starting time: 1530 UTC

Frequency: 15.67 MHz

Reception location: Northern Vietnam.

Receiver and antenna: TECSUN PL-380 with long wire

Notes: An audio recording of Wavescan- the international DX program from World Adventist Radio on May, 21st, 2023. It is produced by WRMI in FL, USA. This recording was made by connecting the mic in port of my Android phone to my radio (Tecsun PL-380) tuned to 15670 kHz with a 5-meter-long wire as an antenna. The signal was transmitted from KSDA- Guam with a power of 100 kW. My radio has a band-width changing function so I used it to optimize audio quality, which resulted in the audio being muffled a little bit at the beginning. QTH: Northern Vietnam

Note that the frequency announcement at the beginning did not match with the actual frequency I tuned to.

Frequency: 15.310 MHz

Reciever location: KiwiSDR in Philippines/Thailand

Antenna: 40M delta loop

Notes: This is part one of two of a one hour broadcast from the BBC World Service Relay in Kranji, Singapore. Reason I had to do two parts was due to the signal becoming weak on the KiwiSDR in the Philippines, So I switched to one in Thailand which had a stronger signal.
