New pirate forum
American pirate operator Darklife (who is also a regular on the Alfa Lima forum) has set up a new pirate forum.
He says: "Check out our new pirate radio forums. We need members because the forums were just opened. They contain all kinds of subforums for pirate radio along with a general chit chat forum. So join in on the fun..."
The address is http://darkliferadio.proboards100.com/ (via swpirates)
While on the subject of forums, while checking out the Alfa Lima forum this morning I was shocked at the amount of spam in the message boards, mainly the first one - Pirates Shortwave.
I know the moderators are busy people with lives to lead but could someone go in every day and just clear this rubbish off. Also don't click on these postings - it will just encourage the spammers to post more if they think people are looking at it.
Even better would be to find a solution to stopping it altogether.

Radio Mistletoe Xmas broadcast
Merry Christmas to everyone here!It's time once again for our special Christmas show on shortwave!
Last year's show was a great success and everyone enjoyed it.
This year we decided to open up the e-mail address early so that you could write in with your requests, dedications, or simple a greeting for inclusion in the show!
This is a busy time of year here at the North Pole, so write as soon as you can!
Our e-mail address has changed slightly. It's now radiomistletoe @ live.com
Of course we can't give you a broadcast schedule at this time. But be sure to tune around over the Christmas season and hopefully you'll hear the show.
Thanks for your wonderful support!
73's from the North Pole!
Kris Kringle
