[HCDX]: Press Release nr. 1 from Marconi Radio Int.

[Marconi Radio Interntional <mrisw@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear DX Editor,



Marconi Radio International (MRI) returned to the air after a 5-year
absence on February 21, 1999 from a new transmitter site.

We are a small Italian free radio which went on the air for the first time
on January 4, 1986. 

Our aim is to be a radio for DXers. Our DX programme in English  can be
heard at 07.45 UTC (approx)  with repeat at 08.30 UTC (approx). Each
edition is followed by a longer Italian version. 

Currently we are broadcasting on Sundays from 07.00 to 09.15 UTC (approx)
in English and Italian. Our frequency is 11390 kHz, and power in the region
of 30 watts. 

We hope to extend the duration of our programme in the near future and also
to increase power.

However as we are still testing, times of transmission are 
liable to change without notice.

MRI welcomes letters and reception reports from listeners but they must be
accompanied by one International Reply Coupon, US$ 1 or Lire 1000 if a
verification is required.
We QSL 100%. Our address is: Via Umbria 1, 74100 Taranto, ITALY.
