New Orleans radio station WWL (870 on the AM broadcast dial for local listeners) is also simulcasting on the shortwave bands, at 5.835 MHz - The battle to save the city can now be heard nationwide...

They aren't putting out much of a signal on 5.835.0 . I can't get them in KY....but there is a lot of solar shit going on right now.

Are they mentioning the confiscations?

I need a free country with good people who work hard and a minimalistic government that assigns low taxes.
We have all needs.

In a perfect world, the "Listen Live" link on WWL's website might get you streaming audio. It's not happening for me right now, but you might have better luck...

Their SW signal is faint.

Space Weather News for Sept. 10, 2005
http://spaceweather.com

Solar activity remains very high and shows no signs of abating.  Sunspot 798/808 has unleashed seven X-class solar flares since Sept. 7th. Forecasters say there's a 75% chance of more X-flares during the next 24 hours, possibly causing radio blackouts and radiation storms.

Coronal mass ejections hurled into space by these explosions could hit Earth's magnetic field in the days ahead.  Sky watchers, particularly in northern places like Canada and Alaska, should remain alert for auroras. The best time to look is  local midnight.

The sun's 27-day rotation is slowly turning sunspot 798  to face Earth. Explosions in the coming week will be increasingly Earth-directed, raising the possibility of geomagnetic storms and auroras over the continental United States, Europe and Australia.

That's why.

Cool!  Might get some auroras next week!  You guys with 10M ham rigs should be able to work most of the world, mobile!  Right before I lost interest in ham radio years ago, I worked South Africa on 10M on the way to work one morning.  

Also, tag for SW sched.  Thanks!!
