Danish free radio station RADIO OZNRH plans shortwave broadcasts

Now we are almost ready again :-)

Our main system (SW and MW) works on the best way. We can now transmit with up to 1 kW. P/P on SW (62nn - 63nn kHz / 48 Meter) and 'still' 500 W P/P on MW (1616 kHz.). BUT we still missing to repair our MW antenna and make the new SW antenna. So therefore we still have a break until those thing is done. When we can realize is a bit unclear, because weather and the old man (me) health also is a part of it.

But follow here. More news will come soon.

Best 73 Ole :-).

First of all we'd like to thank each and everyone for sending in reports for our June 8th broadcast and the 4 hour repeat (as a kind of test) last Sunday June 15th.
We are very happy with the number of reports we received from all corners of  Europe plus a good number from the USA.
Reports for our June 15th test will be answered very soon. For June 8th one we have to wait till the new QSL is ready printed....this QSL is part of our current  series 'FRS-Holland through the Years'. As always all mail will be handled, that has always been the case.

May we pay your attention to the fact that colleague SW station Radio Geronimo will be conducting a 4 hour broadcast next Sunday June 22nd. Start is at 18:00 UTC=19:00 BST=20:00 UTC. Frequency is 9302 kHz/31 metres.

Tune in...and have fun.

73s, have a good weekend!

Peter V. (on behalf of the FRS-team and Chris from Geronimo)

Weekend programmes from FRS Holland, EMR and Radio City

On Sunday June 15 FRS-Holland will repeat its full last Sunday broadcast via the Internet: http://nednl.net:8000/frsh.m3u
For mobile devices there is a 24 kbps mono stream: http://nednl.net:8000/frsh24.m3u.
Just like last Sunday start is at 15:52 UTC/ 17:52 CEST and 6 hours later close down will be at 22.03 UTC/ 00:03 CEST.
Last Sunday we were not very lucky with propagation conditions. Although good reception was reported from different parts of Europe, also much poorer reception was the case at other locations. Variable... Especially 7700 kHz was poorer than we hoped for although the signal improved during the last 2 hours. Positive was 9302 kHz which replaced 5800 kHz. Knowing we used only relatively low power on 9302, it performed quite well in wide areas of Central Europe.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Radio City will be on the air on Saturday June 14 between 08.00 to 09.00 UTC on 9510 kHz.
There is also the weekly transmission via Radio Mercurs in Riga, Latvia on 1485 kHz on Saturday evenings at 19.00 to 20.00 UTC.
The 4th Saturday of the month there is a transmission via Hamburger Lokalradio on 7265 kHz (carrier and upper side band) at 12.00 to 13.00 UTC

Pirate radio is going the way of other mass media

FLEX FM is one of London’s best-known radio stations. For 22 years it has broadcast a mixture of house, garage, jungle and techno music; its DJs appear at parties across the city. Yet its primary output is illegal. Flex FM’s studio is in a secret spot in south-west London and its transmitters are hidden at the top of council tower blocks. Every few months Ofcom, Britain’s broadcast regulator, rings up to suggest the station gets a licence, says Daniel James, a DJ. “But that’s not for us.”

Britain has had pirate radio stations since the 1960s, when Radio Caroline broadcast from a ship in the North Sea. In the 1990s unlicensed operators helped drive the rise of British types of dance music such as jungle and garage. Now that anyone can broadcast on the internet, illegal transmissions might seem unnecessary. Yet pirate stations survive, particularly in London. Around 75 broadcast regularly from within the capital, according to Ofcom, the telecoms regulator, and around ten do so 24 hours a day.
