Tempo di pirati sul Mar Egeo e dintorni. Macedoni compresi. In questo
periodo c'è un'attività incredibile di broadcaster improvvisati, molti sono
pescatori che ingannano le ore notturne andando on air con dei trasmettitori
valvolari spesso piuttosto malconci. Chiacchierano, fanno qualche annuncio più o meno incomprensibile e mandano una canzoncina o un sirtaki. Poi spariscono.
Se si osserva lo spettrogramma si vede che anche i trasmettitori sono su di
giri (alcolici), si spostano di frequenza che è una bellezza e ogni tanto
"scoppiano". Passa qualche minuto e vengono riaccesi, magari 2 o 3 kHz più
in là. In alcuni casi i watt sono tanti e si sente. Devono essere vecchi tx
per uso marittimo, dai 1600 ai 2700 kHz più o meno. Il problema è che
talvolta sono proprio sui canali USA e trasmettono Bob Dylan.
Occhio! A Bocca di Magra, tra il 5 e 10 febbraio, con Dario ci siamo divertiti a sintonizzarli. Ecco una piccola lista (con qualche filibustiere nordico e una marittima finlandese tanto per gradire). Uno spettacolo... Pirotecnico.
