You may like to remove the "Shortwavedxer-germany" and "Shortwave-Germanydxer (new site)" entries from the blog list. Obviously both blogs have been deleted.

The Britain Radio Int link is dead.

Hobart Radio Int were only a relay (i.e. made programs under HRI name) "station" and never had a transmitter

BRI is going to put a new website down but I've been seeing that "coming soon" sign for half a year now. The URL is

I've not heard BRI on the air recently either. They were regularly relayed by Laser. I think this year is their 30th anniversary.

Anyone with long memories might also remember Radio Impact from the 80s. There is now a Radio Impact Facebook page.

Roger Davis is scheduled for a Monday-Friday 4-hour shift in the afternoon on Big L (1395 kHz). That would explain why there is little BRI at the moment. However, tuning into the Big L webstream there is just nonstop music. Most of the streams listed on the website are offline.

That might be a different Roger Davis ... I think there's 2 of them
