Why aren`t they revealing transmitter sites, obviously not all WRMI. 1395
is surely the 500 kW in Armenia; but 9370? Maybe too. Glenn

A week-old grassroots crowdfunding campaign, Shortwaves for Freedom, is
launching additional radio broadcasts this week to Russia, Belarus,
Ukraine
and other parts of Eastern Europe to provide critical information from
Voice of America and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty programs.
“We quickly raised enough money from our online appeal to start funding
transmissions on Tuesday to the region from a private FCC-licensed
shortwave station in Florida and from Monday, March 14th, we will expand
broadcasts from commercial stations outside the United States,” said Kate
Neiswender, a California lawyer and spokesperson for the campaign. [

Shortwaves for Freedom, with now more than a total of $ 10,000 in
contributions from individual donors in the United States, Canada and
other
countries, is paying commercial broadcasters to air transmissions of the
Russian and English language programs of VOA and RFE/RL. It plans to also
fund Ukrainian language programs soon to reach Ukrainians, many now
without
electricity in their own country, as well as those who have taken refuge
in
Moldova, Poland and other countries.
The unprecedented campaign is not affiliated with VOA and RFE/RL or their
parent organization, the United States Agency for Global Media.
“We hope USAGM will realize the dire need for radio broadcasts at a time
of war when millions of people have been cut off from the internet and
credible TV news due to censorship by Russia, the destruction of
infrastructure and their homes,” said Neiswender. “Until the U.S.
government decides to adequately return to radio – both shortwave and
mediumwave (known as ‘AM radio’) – we will fund transmissions as long as
we
have money.”
The additional transmitters to be utilized from Monday “will put a
stronger shortwave signal into the target region and add medium wave,”
said
Gerhard Straub, the former director of USAGM’s Broadcast Technologies
Division, who is among those providing expert advice to Shortwaves for
Freedom.“In times of crisis if the content is compelling, the audience will go
where they know the information is,” Straub said, addressing the question
of radio’s ability to help effectively counter the Kremlin’s obstruction
of
outside media.
Reception of the initial broadcasts from Florida have been confirmed in
the targeted countries.
The initial broadcasts that commenced over the past week will continue
from WRMI (Radio Miami International), utilizing 100,000-watt transmitters
beaming to Eastern Europe.
Here is the daily schedule [7x/week unless noted] from March 14 being
funded by Shortwaves for Freedom:
(UTC is +4 hours EDT):
02:00-04:00 UTC Radio Svoboda (RFE/RL Russian) 7780 kHz
18:00-19:00 UTC Radio Svoboda 1395 kHz MW
19:00-20:00 UTC Radio Svoboda 9370 kHz19:30-20:00* UTC ‘Flashpoint Ukraine’ (VOA English) 15770 kHz
(* Monday-Friday)
Shortwaves for Freedom is not affiliated with any government, political,
corporation organization or any special-interest group. One hundred
percent
of funds received by the group go to pay for broadcast transmissions.
