Free Radio Bumbelstock was heard back on the air after a long absence this week. He sent me this great eQSL for a reception report. Many thanks.

Radio Igloo to repeat programme

The Radio Igloo Show no 3 was broadcast on December 10th, but unfortunately the frequency 1638 kHz was occupied and we had to change to 1633. Because of this some listeners missed our show.

Now we have decided to rebroadcast it on Sunday December 23rd at 22.00-22.45 CET (21.00-21.45 UTC). Hopefully 1638 is free otherwise we will choose a free frequency nearby.

The Radio Igloo Team wishes you a good reception and  a Merry Christmas.
