Report emailed on 16 October 2017. Followup email sent to mdail@bbg.gov and martinoticias@ocb.ibb.gov on 25 Jan 2018. Email reply received the same day from mdail@bbg.gov saying a card was on the way, which was received two days later.
A Christmas card from… the Voice of the Islamic Republic of Iran
The other day a large envelope from the Voice of the Islamic Republic of Iran arrived in the mail, the kind of envelopes they put QSL cards in. I had sent a report a few months ago, but already received that QSL card.
I opened it, and instead of a QSL card… there was a Christmas card:
Ion Radio eQSL
An eQSL I just received from pirate radio station Ion Radio.

Some More Old Pirate QSLs
While going through some old books, I found a long lost binder of pirate QSLs. I’ll post several of them over the next few days.
QSL #6 from Channel Z Radio, they have been around quite a while, this is from back when they were first starting, in 2004:
Voice of the Angry Bastard, run by Pigmeat Martin:
Radio Pigmeat Internaltional, also run by Pigmeat:
The legendary pirate station KIPM. Run by Alan Maxwell, who wrote his own SciFi/Suspense themed radio programs.
Radio Al Fansome, Al has been in the radio community forever. He taught Marconi everything he knew:
CRED must have been a Canadian pirate, I have no memory of it. Could have been a once and done station?
WSKY was prolific back in the 90s. 200 watts, probably used a boatanchor transmitter like a Viking?
Oh and here’s another Voice of the Angry Bastard QSL:
15 watts, so probably a Grenade style transmitter.
