Summer free radio gathering cancelled

The annual get-together for free radio fans and pirate radio operators in the Netherlands has been cancelled because of the Covid-19 emergency.

The Shortwave Combination Holland (SWCH) was organising this summer's event. But in a statement on their website, SWCH said the crisis has made it impossible for social distancing rules to be maintained if too many attended.

"We are very sorry to inform you of this, we would have liked to continue the Summer BBQ meeting, but the 1.5 meter measure is taking this opportunity away. We look forward to seeing you at the Summer BBQ meeting next year."

The annual summer meeting has proved a popular event in the free radio calendar giving listeners and operators from across Europe a chance to meet up and chat about radio over a few beers.

More information on the SWCH website: http://www.swcholland.com/summer-bbq-2020/

Disappointment for Radio Igloo

Last time we were on air with our Radio Igloo Show we received more than 60 reception-reports and
many audio clips. Many listeners also told us they appreciated our program with music of various kinds.

We were therefore inspired to make a new music-show and asked 11 of our most diligent listeners and reporters around the world to help us. We asked them to record and send us a short audio file introducing themselves and the song they chose.

Our disappointment was great when only one single listener sent us an audio file. One listener has promised, but not delivered. One listener told us he can not record an audio-clip. Two listeners have refused to help us. The rest have not responded at all.

With such a lack of interest in helping us, we have decided not to produce any more programs of this kind. Maybe we will shut down the business completely. There are many another things we can spend our time on.

We wish you all a nice corona-free summer

Skyline Radio Germany back on the air in 2020

IT'S ALWAYS ROCK'N'ROLL - NOTHING ELSE MATTERS!

Shortwaveradio.de kindly gave us the fifth possibility to be on air with some brand new shows via their transmitters in Northern Germany.

If you would like to try to catch our programmes, six hours on May 30, 2020, the Saturday before Whitsun, 14.00 - 20.00 UTC would be a good time to give us a listen again.

Try the 75 and 49 metre band shortwave on 3975 and 6160 kHz! Let's keep fingers crossed that propagation is good again!

We received more than 40 reception reports again in December 2019 and we hope we can be as successful as then again! So don't hesitate to write in again.

It might be a good chance for you to grab our first brand-new 2020 eQSL-card design! Attention: This one is available as eQSL-card only!

For our listeners outside of Europe: please check the various webSDRs, and we will verify every correct reception report with our eQSL also.

We look forward to your reception reports, criticisms and commendations to:
SKYLINE RADIO GERMANY, P.O.Box 2702, 6049 ZG Herten, The Netherlands or via e-mail to: skylineradiogermany@web.de

Have a great time with us and Good DX,
DJ Jan-Hendrik

Texas Radio Shortwave to test on 3955 kHz

Texas Radio Shortwave, an American free radio station, has announced three test broadcasts on May 16, 2020.  The broadcasts will determine listenership and propagation feasibility on a newly activated frequency in the 75-meter shortwave broadcast band.

Channel 292 in Germany will transmit the hour-long broadcasts — at 0300 UTC, 1800 UTC, and
2100 UTC — on 3955 kHz with a transmitter power of 4 kW.

Texas Radio Shortwave will send a limited-edition commemorative electronic verification for
correct, detailed reception reports. Reports should be sent to texasradiosw@gmail.com. Reception reports must contain times, song titles, the text of announcements, a SINPO/SIO signal rating, information on receiver and antenna, and comments on the program content. Listeners using remote software-defined receivers (SDRs) should mention that.

Texas Radio Shortwave would like to receive audio clips of the broadcast along with detailed reports.
3955 kHz is part of the 75-meter amateur band in IARU Region 2 (consisting mostly of North and South America).

During May, propagation predictions for 0300 UTC show the strongest signal into the Eastern US and Canada, the northern half of Africa, all of Europe, and portions of Eastern Asia. At 1800 UTC, the prediction is for the strongest signal in Europe and the Northern third of Africa. Strongest signal coverage for the 2100 UTC broadcast is predicted to be like 0300 UTC excluding North America. Listenable signals may be possible in other areas of the world.

Texas Radio Shortwave is located on a ship anchored in the Gulf of Mexico off the South Texas coast. Its programs are broadcast in North America and Europe.

New show from Radio Northern Europe Int

Hello everyone,

This is a first attempt at mailing lists, crossed fingers it works!
The latest announcement and schedule for RNEI show #3 is out, we're doing some experimental things including broadcasting in Comb Stereo this month and we hope you enjoy them :)

RNEI #3 features 30 minutes of our favourite music from all over Northern Europe; Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark and Iceland this show. I’ve really enjoyed choosing the music and putting it all together, I really hope you enjoy listening to it.

We will also have the playlist sent in MFSK32 embedded into the final song, very similar to show #1 (we’ve worked extra hard to make it as hidden as possible which was a massive challenge this time, it’s in 2 parts during the final song with an RxID at the start of the final song).

Just like last month, TIAMS (This Is A Music Show) has been kind enough to join forces and make us a 30 minute express version of his show which I have loved listening to and I’m sure you will love it too!

https://rnei.org/2020/03/30/radio-northern-europe-international-3-tiaems-april-2020-annoucement/

Wishing you all the best and hoping you can receive and enjoy this month's show.
