Radio Jennifer eQSL

 


I've received an eQSL from new UK shortwave pirate Radio Jennifer, who I heard last weekend on 6399. He is using a 10 watt Dave Martin designed Corsair transmitter with 2m indoor magnetic loop  and has already been heard as far as Ukraine. Email address is radiojennifer2020@gmail.com. Thanks for the eQSL.

FRS Holland to celebrate 40th anniversary

Dear FRS Friend,


We're approaching the moment that we have been looking forward to for a long time: the celebration of 40 years of shortwave broadcasting!

Following our successful 200th official broadcast back in August, this really is a milestone. For already quite some time, intensive preparations have been taking place and we've done the best we could to provide an attractive broadcasting schedule.

Of course we hope for your company next Sunday (November 8). For details please check our website: http://www.frsholland.nl/20-latest-news/146-frs-holland-1980-2020-40-years-on-shortwave.html 

In order to make listening convenient, next Sunday's broadcast will be aired on different frequencies and different times. In addition there will be a number of streams starting a few days after the shortwave broadcasts. Take a look at our schedule.

There will be a special Anniversary QSL card. Besides: listeners who send in a letter/ report to P.O.Box 2702 in Herten will receive our FRS 40 years Souvenir booklet containing many interesting articles. Please enclose 5 euro to cover P&P. 

For an extra 5 euro we offer a FRS 40 years CD. This CD contains programme extracts from past & present, FRS 40th Anniversary jingles (recently produced for next Sunday) and a few surprises.

73s, Peter Verbruggen on behalf of the FRS Team

Times & frequencies:
7700 kHz & 5790 kHz: 0852-1405 UTC, repeated 1405-1923 UTC
6160 kHz: 0852-1405 UTC
3920 kHz: 1552-2105 UTC

Texas Radio SW to test on 75 metres this weekend

 

Cap’n Ric says Texas Radio Shortwave will be testing on two frequencies in the 75-meter band in the next few days.   These broadcasts will allow TRSW to evaluate frequencies to reach European listeners:

October 31, 1800-1900 UTC on Mike Radio (NL) on 3940 kHz

November 1, 1700-1800 and 1800-1900 UTC on Channel 292 (DE) on 3955 kHz.

The program will feature a selection of music (gospel, ragtime, blues, rock, and rap) performed by Texas artists. There is a special eQSL for correct, detailed reception reports for EACH frequency.  Two different cards feature pictures of armadillos, the state animals of Texas. 

 Listeners who submit correct reports for BOTH TESTS will receive a THIRD "Collector's Edition" eQSL. TRSW’s email is texasradiosw@gmail.com

73 and Arrgghh.
Always be yourself.  Unless you can be a pirate.  Then always be a pirate.
