Pirates in Danville

107.5....the new home for hip-hop & r/b. Clear as can be all over town. Had me fooled into thinking maybe a new outlet had come on the scene to compete with WILD and The Beat until the uncensored stuff began to spew from their transmitter. Signal and sound is very good...on par with a real outfit.
 
Danville is a "hotbed" of pirate activity. Is the Spanish language religious outfit still going on 97.7? I was in Danville a month ago and it was heard all over town and for several miles around... Sounded like a Spanish Revival broadcast... It was slightly distorted, but otherwise clear.
 
Argh... Pi-Rats in D'ville? Argh... Tho't they be in Pitts-Berg, Penn-See-Vain-Ya'....
 
Sorry, hit it twice...
 
The Mexican pirate transmits from the Pioneer Playhouse grounds in Danville. Don't know about the Hip hopper
 
107.5 has call letters WDMH-LP and also has a facebook page. The audio quality has taken a serious nose-dive. Its now unlistenable and the signal is marginal. Is is legal to broadcast foul language like they do??? It doesnt bother me but its very unusual to hear that over the air. I would say their Ebay transmitter is almost done.
 
The Danville pirate audio seems to be all over the place. I have also heard an "id" that says FX GEN. Still trying to figure out where they are transmitting from. So far it seems the strongest in the center of Danville.
 
Seems strongest in the Burger King-Tractor Supply-Kroger area.....
 
It my be a pirate station I don't know but it is 2013 the old FCC laws need to be updated. The people are going to hear it no way of getting around it the FM radio may as will be the host of it no one listens to the FM radio no more its all CD's because of the FCC's old laws of having edited songs on it. The FCC just may have let some unedited stations like the WDHM Danville's Facebook page says its station 58 out of 100 have we tryed to find out what city's the outhere 99 station's are at. So keep up the good work WDHM-LP or FX whatever that station's name is do we know yet

They are an unlicensed operator bragging on Facebook and their website on airing unedited material, posting a request line and soliciting advertising. Place your bets on when a field inspector pays them a visit. I'd advise them to make sure their EAS is operational and public file is in order; oh wait.

please use these in future posts: . . . , , , ! ! ? ? they're called 'punctuation marks'.
you're welcome. if you use them, I might even use more capital letters in my posts.
BTW...you can't just change the rules because you don't like them: unlicensed = illegal.
