  1. Aquí está la grabación del mensaje en bucle que se está transmitiendo por la frecuencia de 198 kHz anunciando el fin de las emisiones en esa mítica frecuencia de la BBC4. Una noticia muy lamentable.

    Como se puede apreciar, el audio es muy limpio a pesar de estar escuchando la emisión a mas de 1000 km. de distancia.

  2. Estoy sintonizando la legendaria frecuencia de 198 kHz donde desde hace 90 años transmite la BBC y que cierra hoy. Ahora mismo están pasando un mensaje en bucle con el aviso de cierre. Hasta ayer transmitía BBC4.

    Y la verdad es que tengo un nudo en el estómago. Esto no debería de ocurrir. 😢

  6. After the long outage looks like Radio Capodistria transmitter on 1170 kHz was repaired, strong signal from Slovenia.

  7. Lack of details about transmission sites from stations proudly proclaiming their #mediumwave broadcasts are frustrating.

    Your listeners are radio obsessed, they love the medium, they want to know.

  8. Fête de la Radio: Open Doors at Monaco Media Diffusion Transmitters

    World Radio Day is in February, but there are two more radio days in France, on June 4 and 5. Monaco Média Diffusion even adds June 6, and on those three days, reportedly, their transmitter sites at Peille (Alpes-Maritimes) and Roumoules (Alpes-de-Haute-Provence) invite the interested public for guided tours that are scheduled to take place evey 30 minutes on those three days, from 07:00 to 15:00 UTC (+ 2 hours local time). Romoules is where Radio Six International’s "Midnight Rendez-vous" can be heard from on Saturday nights, from 22:00 to 23:00 UTC, on 1467 kHz.

  9. NRTA Maintenance Delegation visits Qinghai: Exchange, Research, and Inspection

    Links added during translation – – not part of the original release

    A five-member delegation led by Wang Wenxue, vice director of the NRTA Radio Station Management Bureau’s maintenance department, visited the Qinghai provincial mediumwave station management center from May 13 to 14 and held professional exchanges there. The center’s leadership team and heads of relevant departments accompanied the delegatin [during its stay].

    5月13日至14日,国家广播电视总局无线电台管理局维护处副处长王文雪一行5人到省中波台管理中心开展业务交流工作。中心班子成员及相关部门负责人陪同。

    In informal discussions, those in charge at the [Qinghai provincial mediumwave station management] center explained how a smart operation and maintenance system had been built and AI drone inspection been implemented in recent years. Vice director Wang Wenxue shared experience in the precise tuning of mediumwave and shortwave transmission security and reliability and maintenance management systems. The two sides focused on the pain points and blockages that are currently in the way of high-quality development of cutting-edge broadcasting, and on future trends.

    座谈期间,中心主要负责同志系统介绍近年来在构建智慧运维体系、无人机智能巡检方面的探索实践与阶段成果。王文雪副处长重点分享了中短波发射系统精准调优、安播保障能力量化评估、代维管理体系等方面的先进经验。双方聚焦行业前沿,围绕制约广播发射高质量发展的痛点堵点及未来发展趋势开展了深入探讨和交流。

    [A/the] research team conducted on-site inspections of the Center’s monitoring, dispatch, and command platform, as well as of Stations 566 and 560. They observed firsthand the operational mechanisms of the central platform in areas such as end-to-end intelligent dispatching, multidimensional dynamic monitoring, AI-powered early warning, and full-link closed-loop control, reviewed the achievements of the "Qinghai Medium Wave Party Member Pioneer Commando*.", and gained an in-depth understanding of the practical effectiveness of the smart operation and maintenance system at grassroots stations. The research team highly commended the center’s conceptual framework and practical experience in developing the smart operation and maintenance system, and, from an industry pespective, offered valuable suggestions on optimizing system functions and on enhancing efficiency. By means of on-site "diagnostic assessments" they conducted precise testing and evaluation of various indicators of the antenna and feedline system and comprehensively identified technical bottlenecks, providing clear technical guidance and directions for improvement to further enhance the signal transmission stability, audio clarity, and overall coverage quality.

    调研组实地考察了中心监测调度指挥平台和566台、560台,现场观摩了总平台在全流程智能调度、多维动态监测、AI智能预警以及全链路闭环控制等方面的运行机制,了解了“青海中波党员先锋突击队”的建设成效;深入了解了智慧运维系统在基层台站的应用实效。调研组对中心智慧运维系统的建设思路与实践经验给予高度评价,并从行业高度就系统功能优化与效能提升提出了宝贵建议;通过现场“把脉问诊”,对天馈线系统各项指标进行精准检测评估、全面梳理技术瓶颈,为进一步提升广播信号传输稳定性、音质清晰度及全域覆盖质量提供了明确的技术指导意见与改进方向。

    During this research and exchange, the two sides formed a common understanding of establishing a normalized communication mechanism, fostering mutual technical advancement, sharing resources, and jointly promoting development. They expressed their commitment to cooperation to improve the quality of mediumwave broadcasts, to strengthen capabilities to ensure broadcast security, and to join and coordinate forces to open a new dimension in broadcasting technology.

    这次调研交流,双方在建立常态化沟通机制,技术共进、资源共享、发展共促等方面形成了共识。双方表示,将携手共同提升中波广播播出质量、强化安全播出保障能力,合力开创广播技术协同发展的新局面。

    If you are a highly respected colleague or neighbor, the party will likely invite you to become a candidate to join – and by finding a working excuse not to join, you are only proving that the party really needs you.

  33. Radio Six International 1467 kHz: one Hour earlier on Saturday Night

    "Midnight Rendez-Vous", the Radio-Six Saturday night show, airs one hour earlier from May 9th, from 22:00 to 23:00 UTC. People had asked for this, as 23:00 UTC was too late for them, show host Tony Currie announced last night, and wanted to be tucked up in bed right after the show where the action is.

    That’s a bit weird, because UTC is the same in winter and summer, but then, the audience isn’t as young as it was when the Beatles were still performing together.

    The frequency remains unchanged, on 1467 kHz from Romoules.

  37. BBC with its many #mediumwave simulcast transmitters on 693 kHz is received with a slight “stereo effect” due to multipath.

  39. Power 927 from Milan on 927 kHz with the program Qui Lugano.
    Until a few years ago private #mediumwave stations were not allowed in Italy, a lot has changed since the public broadcaster switched off and promptly razed to the ground their (ours) historical transmission sites, following a well tested procedure to burn the ships down before someone could change course.

  41. In the end I did hear Farsi talk on 837 a bit later, just as weak as the CNR5 snippet below... MWLIST also lists them from a small, 10kW relay in Khur. Offset I measured is 836.9996, really likely .9992 - doesn't match the .996 one listed for Esfahan/Habibabad 400kW unit! #mediumwave #mwdx #Iran

    RE: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:gzdjt2bb6zkdknijroh6tm6i/post/3mhoj7vfxr22p

  42. 837 kHz: uh oh, I didn't expect to hear Chinese songs in #aurora 😳 Yet that's CNR5 Cross-Strait Radio, 1000kW @ 8214km... IRIB Radio Esfahan is missing or very low power #mediumwave #mwdx

  43. 864 kHz: looks like IRIB Radio Kermanshah had slipped off-freq to 863.8442 and likely also boosted its power, surely in an effort to jam co-channel Iran International via Gavar🇦🇲 (and the Quran station from Egypt). #mediumwave #mwdx #Iran #IranWar #jamming

  44. Has #Iran started doing co-channeling the China way? I'm seeing as many as 3 or 4 carriers on 1548 kHz, accompanying Voice of Trump Farsi via Kuwait🇰🇼 -- and that's with the small terminated Flag NULLING the Middle East! OK, one is an impostor, Radio Islam 🇿🇦. But others? #mediumwave #IranWar

  45. Regular Radio Six Mediumwave Transmissions on Saturdays, and other Radio News

    Japan / Middle East

    On shortwave, Radio Japan (or NHK) have reportedly expanded their transmissions for Japanese citizens in the Middle East since early March, from the usual plus/minus six hours to 24 hours a day. The program is meant to serve Japanese citizens in Iran in particular, as both internet and international phone connections may be difficult to access there.

    It is believed that in addition to the usual NHK Radio content, information that may be of use for Japanese citizens in Iran is added to the program. Details are provided by the NHK website, with transmissions on frequencies both from Yamata in Japan, and Issoudun in France.

    Israel

    On 1287 kHz medium wave, Galei Zahal is back. Another frequency from Israel appears to be 945 kHz, but that’s not necessarily Galei Zahal.

    Britain / France

    Update, Mar 14:1st regular transmission postponed, now March 21

    Tony Currie has announced regular Radio Six International mediumwave transmission on Saturday nights at 23:00 UTC, next one on March 14 (this Saturday) on 1467 kHz, via Romoules in southeastern France. The program is titled "Midnight Rendezvous", and on March 7, it featured songs from continental Europe, not least in French. The signal came in rather well here in northwestern Germany, on a Sony ICF-2001D receiver without anything but its built-in ferrite antenna.

  46. The above in addition to broadcasts already in place: 24/7 5860 KWT 1430-1700z 13755 DHA 1700-1900z 12005 WOF 1900-2000z 9515 WOF 2000-2100z 5875 WOF 1430-2100z anywhere between 7460-7520 TAC 1500-1700z 1395 ERV #shortwave #mediumwave #Iran #IranWar #WARINIRAN

  47. 864 kHz: another #clandestine programming to #Iran. This time it sounds more analytical, with plenty of mentions of Trump and extensive soundbytes of him, translated. VOA? Over/under the Egyptian, this time I used the Co-Channel Canceller to keep NMA in check. #mediumwave #IranWar #WARINIRAN

  48. 738 kHz: IRIB Radio Bushehr appears to still run its own programming instead of the compulsory midnight news from IRIB Radio Iran 😮 weak signal. #mediumwave #Iran #IranWar #WARINIRAN

  49. If you have any recordings of Iranian radio on #shortwave, #mediumwave, maybe even FM - or if you have recordings of any external station targeting #Iran (BBC, VOA, Radio Farda, Iran International, clandestines?)... feel free to add them to this new YouTube playlist ⏯️ www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

  50. Listening to #RadioCaroline while doing some reading. 📻
    No external antenna required tonight. Awesome!
    #Radio #MediumWave #AMRadio

  51. Listening to 1278 kHz, #Ukraine Radio has gone open-carrier a couple minutes ago, in the midst of Suspilne newscast (a TV simulcast?). The audio hasn't returned yet as on 1916z, leaving a weak IRIB Radio Kermanshah (itself 1st heard in over a year!) on freq. #mediumwave #WARINUKRAINE 4th Anniversary

  52. tradizionale tecnologia radiofonica, che può prescindere dalla connessione alle reti.

    BTW lo spettro radiofonico in OM, lasciato libero dallo stop delle trasmissioni RAI, in Italia ha permesso la nascita di alcune radio private che trasmettono in modulazione d'ampiezza, piuttosto che in FM. Una che ascolto talvolta la notte opera sui 1188 kHz e credo si tratti di Radio Studio X, dalla prov. di Pistoia.
