Serbian pirate Radio YU1 heard in Japan !!

Last week I got interesting e-mail from Hokkaido, Japan from Mr. Ushio Shimpei. There was a sample clip of unknown station heard on 1723 kHz.
It was a sample of Radio YU1, Serbia, which was easy to recognize because his voice has a bit special sound. Also there were many times station-name YU1 mentioned, clear IDs!!

Very nice catch in Japan! Radio YU1 is located near Belgrade and he uses 5 kW transmitter. Here are the photos of YU1's equipment (taken by Radio Texas, Serbia).

Here is mp3-clip of Radio YU1 received in Japan ! Clear and strong signal !

These Japanese DXers are Ushio Shimpei and Gosui Kazuhiro.
There had pedition in country side in Hokkaido near Sapporo, North Japan.
Equipment used:
Receiver: Perseus (SDR-receiver) / Frq: 1723 kHz
Date: 18:00-19:00, 19th September, 2010
Place: Hokkaido Japan,
Antenna:400 m BOG (Beverage On the Ground)

The Washima(Sea of Japan coast in Niigata) DX camping team receives Yu 1 on the same day, too, with Perseus and K9AY.

In addition, another station is received on 1690.33kHz at 1800UT.
I think that it is Greek Pirates.
