You are invited to tune in to our next broadcast, which will be a very special edition of NordAM. We say goodbye and begin our summer-holidays.
Actually, the  "NordAM holidays" will last until autumn 2013 at least and we are not sure if this will be the last NordAM transmission at all. Maybe. Maybe not. We dont't know anything either.

<http://www.facebook.com/pages/NordAM/231948116860158>

We are excited to read where our little "student's-radio-project" can be received and wonder what will happen to NordAM in the future. You can send your comments, reception reports and thoughts to nordam @ shortwaveservice.com or post your feedback at our Facebook wall.

Nord AM on air this weekend

Dear listeners and friends,

We are happy to announce that the next broadcast of NordAM will be on the air tomorrow! Tune in to our special show with music from all over Europe. We have selected interesting songs from all the countries which participate in this year's European football championship. Of course, we'll talk a little bit about the matches so there's nice music for those who don't love football at all and a little bit of chatter about sports for those who hate our musical taste. If you like both it would be perfect! :-)

So tune in if you like:

Saturday, 15/06/2012: 17.00-18.15 CEST (1500-1615 UTC)
Sunday, 16/06/2012: 17.00-18.15 CEST (1500-1615 UTC)

We use Radio 700's transmitters in Kall-Krekel, Germany (with 1000 Watts). Furthermore, we can be heard on Radio 700's online live streaming. Just go to <http://radio700.de/player/player_kw.php?p=1> and select the frequency we are currently broadcasting on. These streams and frequencies normally carry the nice broadcasts of Radio 700.

Plus, there will be a very special edition of NordAM next week, so do not change the frequency on your radio-dial and wait for further announcements...!

We invite you to send us again your comments and reception reports. Detailed and correct reports will be verified with our new QSL card (by regular mail or email).  Please send all your letters and reports to: nordam @ shortwaveservice.com
Or visit our Facebook site:  <http://www.facebook.com/pages/NordAM/231948116860158>

We are excited to read where our little "student-radio-project" can be received. Feel free to forward these information to your DXing friends.

Let's meet in the 49 metre-band next Saturday and Sunday!

Best wishes,
Torben & Daniel

Radio transmitter sparks security alert

Bomb disposal experts have said a suspicious device that sparked a security alert in a Surrey town was "not dangerous".

The device was found after reports of suspicious activity near the Maultway, Camberley at about 10:00 BST on Monday.

The Maultway and roads near the Cheylesmore Park estate were closed for about four hours.

Surrey Police said it was thought to be a transmitter for a radio station and cordons were lifted at about 14:55 BST.

AM-Forum to close for a month

The popular Dutch AM-Forum is to shut down for a month. A (translated) statement on the forum said: "The AM-Forum goes a month down. The reason, the team has to refurbish the forum and that needs time. And time is a scarce item in the team, because of the flame wars on the forum. The flame wars takes more time than necessary. On the first of June the forum is back on the air."

It seems there have been a lot of quarrels on the forum which have kept the administrators busy so they have decided to take it down during May to return on June 1.

Rage FM raided

Rage FM, an FM pirate broadcasting from Taunton, Somerset (in the west of England), was taken off the air on Wednesday after a raid by Ofcom.

A statement on their Facebook page said: "Rage Taunton has been killed off as a result of an ofcom raid on our Taunton Transmitter apparatus. We are pleased to confirm nobody from Rage was onsite at the time. We shall NOT be defeated by this fairly minor mishap or any of the killjoy straight edge bores!!!!! Thanks to everyone who've supported this positive project in Taunton area over the past year, thank you very much indeed!
we'll be back...as soon as possible ;)."

The station has been on the air just over a year broadcasting what it calls "an alternative to mainstream media."

The Bristol Radio Recordings blog reported yesterday that Rage was back testing on 100.6 and 104.5.
