New broadcasting times due to propagation:
3975 kHz: 0900 to 1800 UTC (1000 to 1900 CET) and 2100 to midnight UTC
(2200 to 0100 CET)

Don't miss his famous North Sea nuggets and forgotten / collectibles hits.

Stafford's World
The show is presented by Mark Stafford and is an extension of his very popular specialist shows which have been broadcast (via Satellite) throughout Europe since 1997, firstly on European Klassik Rock then, from 1999 to the present day on Radio Caroline.

The Prog Mill
Two hours of superb melodic and symphonic progressive music, old and brand spanking new. Shows often include a CD Giveaway, Nigel’s Proggy Vaults and even a proggy interview from time to time.

Radio Netherlands' "Media Network"
Shortwave Radio regularly rebroadcasts old tapes from the Media Network Vintage Vault. Media Network was one of the first international communications magazines of its time. Johnathan Marks hosted and produced the programme, but a lot of the content was made by a network of volunteer monitors, reporters and researchers located all over the globe.

Radio Dolfijn eQSL

A quick reply from Dutch MW pirate Radio Dolfijn who I logged yesterday evening on 1633 kHz. The operator said he was been doing this hobby for 48 years and his transmitter can run up to 800W. Incidentally, this station is not to be confused with another Radio Dolfijn, who operates on shortwave. Thanks Willem.

New free radio station from Texas

A new free radio station from Texas will be taking to be airwaves on Thanksgiving Day (Thursday) on 6925 Khz or nearby from 2300 UTC.

As the transmission will be broadcast in North America, it might be a challenge to hear in Europe. But Texas Radio Shortwave is giving European listeners a chance to tune into the sound of Texas on Christmas Day with a relay via Channel 292 in Germany on 6070 & 7440. More details nearer the time.

The email address is texasradiosw@gmail.com while the station has a Facebook page at facebook.com/texasradiosw

More information from the HF Underground forum: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,60514.0.html

With Thursday being a public holiday in the USA, there will probably be fair bit of pirate activity so it will worth checking around 6.9 MHz from around 2200UTC.

Free Radio Skybird & WGAY eQSLs

A couple of eQSLs received from the USA over the weekend. First up was Free Radio Skybird, heard via Channel 292. Then a American pirate station called WGAY who I heard via SDR in SW England last month. He said this was the first report he had received from the UK. Many thanks for the QSLs.

I also had a reply from Merseyland Alternative Radio who I logged on 6275 kHz yesterday. MAR confirmed it was a relay, although they have no idea who was putting out their programme. Rodger from the station said they have been testing on 1611 and 6266. He was also pleased someone had been relaying their programme to a wider audience.
