Relay of Horizon FM, Canary Islands heard in UK

During the past few days several British DX Club members have reported hearing the Canary Islands English-language station Horizon FM on 1476 kHz or 1539 kHz.

The signal has been reported in north west England after dark with suggestions that the relay is coming from the northern part of Ireland, possibly Donegal.

Last year the station was logged regularly on shortwave for several months via a mystery relay before disappearing again.

Radio Mi Amigo to test 3985 kHz

Autumn and winter is coming as conditions on Shortwave change.

Our daily broadcasts on 6005 kHz in the 49-meter band maybe harder to receive in the dark at nighttime. We are therefore testing the alternative frequency of 3985 kHz before we make a final decision to change our daily 19:00 - 20:00 CET (1700-1800 UTC) 6005 kHz broadcasts to this new frequency.
                                                                                     
This week only (19 - 23 October) we will broadcast on both 6005 and 3985 kHz to see which one of them works best. Please be so kind to help us by sending a reception report. Tell us where you are listening and which of the 2 frequencies you prefer. At the end of the week we will pick one of the reception reports as a 'winner' who will receive a mini multiband radio as a reward.

 Use our contact form on the website of send your reports to: info@radiomiamigointernational.com

The 48 metre band faded out very early this evening. Completely dead when I tuned in on the Twente SDR at 1730 UTC. But on the other hand the top end of medium wave was full of Greek pirates (some with decent strength) on the Twente SDR.

A quick bandscan at 1735 UTC:
1640 Greek music (fair)
1653 Greek music (fair/good)
1660 Greek music (fair)
1670 Greek music (good)
 plus weak carriers on 1690, 1691, 1696, 1700, 1710, 1720 kHz - possibly more Greek or Balkan pirates.
