FRS Holland this Sunday
Dear FRS Friends,
Sunday October 23rd
Sunday October 23rd FRS-Holland will be on air between 07:52- 14:00 UTC. Important: the broadcast is on 5800//7600 kHz but there's a chance that we will be using 7685 instead of 7600 kHz. So keep an eye on 7600 and 7685. Of course we do hope propagation will be satisfactory that day.
Programme line-up includes all FRS presenters and consists of FRS Magazine, the German Service, FRS Goes DX , Radio Waves and the FRS Golden Show. Ingredients....great music, DX News, letters, the day calendar and a number of radio related items. Radio entertainment on a Sunday. Tune in....
Internet Stream
That same day between 13:52- 20:00 UTC/15:52- 22.00 CEST will see a full repeat on the internet. Check on your computer < http://nednl.net:8000/frsh.m3u >.
A week later, on Sunday October 30th, once again a full repeat on the internet. At this date winter time will be introduced and as a result FRSH can be heard between 14:52- 19:00 UTC/15:52- 22.00 CET.
FRS News #36: special 30th Anniversary edition
The latest edition of FRS News #36 is out for some time now. In this 24 page edition (in colour!). In the past months FRS-Holland has been working very hard to produce this booklet covering 30 Years of FRS Holland. It contains several photos and of course much information:
This is a true collector's item and no doubt it makes an interesting read! We never produced something similar in the past. In case you are interested …you can obtain a hard-copy of our specially produced 30Years of FRS-Holland booklet for 5 euro/ 7 US dollars in cash.
Send your order to FRSH, POBox 2702, 6049 BE Herten, the Netherlands.
In the meantime FRS-Holland has become 31 years....

QSL from Long Live Radio
A very quick reply from Long Live Radio. In his reply the operator says: "We use driving oscillator and power amplifier both on vacuum tubes, max output is about 75W (GU-50 tubes). Antenna - halfwave endfeed resonant wire ("Fuchs' antenna"). Tests began on 7th of September evening on 5800 kHz. First broadcast with station IDs was on 16th of September. QTH is one of the countries of ex-USSR. Next tests are planned for October 18th, 19th and 21st from 1600 till 1845 UTC (start time may vary) on 5780 kHz or near. Antenna configuration will be changed every 30 min." Thanks for the QSL!

FRS Holland test broadcast on Sunday
Hello Radio Friends
Some latest info. Next Sunday 16 October at 08:00 UTC/ 10:00 CEST there will be a 60 minute test on 7600 kHz in preparation for the FRSH 23rd October broadcast.
According to our tx operator, it might be the case that 7600 is used by a foreign station during day time on Sundays. Therefore I will try to check 7600 next Sunday.
If any of you are listening in next Sunday and are able to tune in to 7600 between 09-14 UTC, please do so. If you hear any signals from a foreign (Chinese?) station on 7600, please let us know by email. If 7600 happens to be used for one or more hours during day time (before 14 UTC), we will be using 7685.
October 23rd and 30th will see our internet stream between 13:52-20:00 UTC/ 14:52- 21:00 UTC (Oct. 30th > winter time).
Let's hope propagation will improve a bit so that we can enjoy loud and clear signals on 7600 or 7685.
All the best

New UK pirate radio forum
Blunders writes: "Hope I'm not treading on peoples toes here, but should you be a UK Pirate Radio Enthusiast, especially FM, I've created a new forum especially for us,
It will include chat on the UK Pirate scene, mainly focussing on FM, and also have a forum for technical advise.
I've only just set this up so we're quite thin when it comes to members, but hopefully that will change.
