Some explaining is in order. I am a friend of Ken. He runs the station, 94.5 on the FM dial, shown in this video. This station is now defunct and has been replaced with 89.1 KNNZ FM. He runs the show, Modern Rock Worldwide, between 12AM and 4AM CST on a Sunday morning. He isn’t just some nerd with a Ham license and a boatload of ADHD medication. He’s a friendly, and he’s legit.

I just looked up the call sign of his full-power 100 kW station, and while he didn't go into any immediate specifics on what town he was located in, I was able to find that KNNZ is licensed to Hawley, Minnesota. There is also now a licensed station at 94.5 on Hawley, Minnesota's FM dial: KDLB, an 11 kW country station under the Bob FM brand.

That would be the best method if the signal was in the medium wave band where a magnetic Loop Antenna could null the signal voltage, with FM the directivity from the VHF FM type aerial wouldn't be quite selective enough though a digital signal strength meter could do they job similar to the analyser he's got there.

I had a pirate fm station. 90.3 I was running 100 watts. It was a college campus transmitter. The stero composite generator sucked. At the time I was doing commercial radio tower work. One piticular station i saw that they had 3 Orban Optamod stereo composite generators. New when they bought them they were probably 20,000.00 I asked the engineer what they wanted for it. He said 100.00 $ I bought it and he helped me get the station sounding good as a pro station. I had a limiter / compresser. It sounded great. Furthest I was able to hear it was about 10 miles away. 100 watts.

mmm.... if you're just trying to show people how to find these pirate radio broadcasts, actually you could have started in the parking lot. When you were first turning in the car, you could see the fluctuation in intensity. You can use that to find the lowest reception in the school parking lot. That tells you when your antenna is 90 degrees out of phase. From that you can get a direct line to the broadcast tower. Then if you go down the block, turn in a circle, watching the spectrum analyzer, you'll get a second direct line to the broadcast. If you use simple geometry, you can extend the lines out until they intersect. If you know exactly how far you drove from where one measurement was taken, you can exactly pinpoint the broadcast. Depending on how good you are at math, it takes as little as 4 minutes to figure out exactly where that stuff is.

There's a cheaper way to track down pirates. Just unscrew the car antenna and you'll hopefully still have a signal, only weaker. Then just drive around until it's nice and powerful, then with a little luck and practice you'll be looking at the broadcast antenna! I've tracked down lots of pirates this way, but I'd never go as far as to report them to the FCC or our UK equivalent of they're not doing any harm.

Funny thing... Airwaves or legally public property, but only corporations can broadcast on them. What's wrong with this picture? I never understood why a permitting process was never put in place for people who are knowledgeable and could pass a radio theory test, at least showing that they know enough to broadcast properly. That being said, I think the first thing a low power broadcaster should have is compliant equipment. Some of the stipulations for LPFM licenses could be adapted to an individual license, at least on the technical side of things. It doesn't really matter anyway, with the cheap transmitters coming out of China, everyone is going to get into it. There's going to be a lot of splatter from over-modulation :) They don't even put a hard limiter in those things. You can get seven watts for less than a hundred bucks. A responsibly run micro station covering the things a local community cares about is far better for said community in my opinion. I started researching setting up a low power station only to find that there really is no good way an individual can lawfully broadcast. I have to have "inc." after my name and lots of capitol; LOTS of capitol. so really the airwaves are rich people property. It stinks of injustice.
@concernedcitizen69008 жыл бұрын
+docchocobo Or, you could just get on the amateur frequencies. All it takes is passing a simple test for licensing (much simpler than that required for the commercial licenses). The FCC has set aside a very large area of the radio spectrum for *amateur* use, just as they have for *commercial* use, and they require licensing for both to transmit. Anyone can purchase a receiver and listen without a license, however, just as on commercial FM radio.

I was skeptical of how a cheap Chinese transmitter would sound, but it actually puts out an extremely clean, punchy sound, with no drift (PLL), and virtually no spurs. I hear a lot of the transmitters coming out of China use basically the same FM chip that a simple car radio transmitter uses, slaved through an amplifier. Regardless, it works, and I couldn't be happier. Planning on upgrading to the 15 watt unit by the fall.

+Mitchell Martinez The FCC enforcement division usually only goes after very very blatant offenses that are causing harm to other stations and even then they a little weak about it, the content of the station usually isn't that big of a deal unless its anti whatever the current political environment is. The thing is radiowaves do not cooperate the way people might hope, they go across borders and cause problems to other states, countries, services, whatever so that's why you need a permit. You can use very very very very low power to hook an ipod up to a car with no aux audio in but other than that get a license.

It's actually complaint-driven. I had a pirate for YEARS...no problems. It had a loyal listenership and everything. It was plugging a hole in the market and serving listeners. No other station (licensed) was playing the music I was. It was on an empty frequency and everything. What happened was there was an LLC around here somewhere that wanted to put an LPFM on the very frequency I was using. So the c*** suckers reported me. Then their stupid LLC fell flat and went belly up. I'm seriously considering putting the rig back on the air.

In the uk they use a small highly directional microwave relay link (made of old kU Band LNAs) to a "disposable" transmitter left on a building, the FM radio transmitter is cheap to make and can run for a long time on "borrowed power" or batteries, point is you cant find the DJ / operator station, it's why they've installed Rohde and Schwarz automatic DF (direction finding) systems in and around London then the MTTB (mean time to bust) is improved as the pirates usually fiddle with it first setting it up. This guy is a total creeper "wowo I've got a spectum analyser off ebay" no real antenna etc. Offshore ship based medium wave pirate radio (Radio Caroline et al ) in the 60s changed the face of UK music and the BBC had to sadly bust them and install "radio one" shit with its great DJs like "Jimmy Pedo Saville". That's disruptive tech to us.

Why didn't you make a simple loop antenna? For the FM band, that would be very easy.

Glad this M Fer didn't pull up in my driveway like that. He would be hunting a hospital before he left it.
