Never heard any "pirate" AM stations in CT especially those stations recorded and posted on that YT channel. But I did hear a AM station probably outside of a AM band above 1710 kHz ran by a conspiracy guy a dozen blocks away from my place but that doesn't count since it's only on for a few moments in one night. But other than that, those stations claimed in those videos are hard to believe it even exists in CT.
NONE of them exist
You dont need to share his videos here anymore, we get the point.
I don't think many of these if any at all are pirates, just some kid tinkering around. If you look at the Youtube channel, you'll see that quickly. One of those videos of a pirate just shows the radio and you can hear someone pretending to do a morning talk show in the background. Not even close to being convincing. The TV stuff? a bit more convincing as they obviously know how to use a video editor on a computer, and then you can send a stream from the computer to either a Roku or TV and do a video of that to make it look like it's reception. All just some kid playing around. Not really anything to see here.
Although, I did find it interesting that the kid likes to pick up transmitters from 5 and below (the kind for iPods) and tries to combine the signals to get further frequencies (really just making spurs) though that's FM only and he claims some of these stations are AM. I didn't watch more than a couple, so I'm not sure how he's generating AM signals unless he's actually built something from scratch, but the way he used his teeth to rip a connector off of a set of headphones gives me doubts on that.

Hi Paul, crazy stuff
That is crazy stuff. He makes fake stations.
