No sign of 15700 here in Massachusetts right now, 1440 UTC. 25800 is also nor being heard and this frequency is normally received nearly every day with a good signal. Conditions seem pretty depressed today.
Stig, Can you accept US $ for reception reports ? IRC's are no longer available from the US Postal Service.

World Music Radio (WMR) is back on 15700 kHz today Friday after one week's
absence. Still running 200 Watts (to the South) on the air daily from
0700-1900 UTC. I think I will change the on air times per March 30 2025 (for
A25) to 0500-2200 UTC. Or perhaps 24/7. Suggestions welcome to wmr@wmr.dk -
is the 19 mb open at that time? And are there anyone listening 2200-0500 UTC
(or trying to).

World Music Radio still off the air locally in Copenhagen on 927 kHz. But
the good news is, that chances are that WMR might come back on 927 kHz
sometime during March 2025.

WMR on 5930 (150 Watts), and on 25800 kHz (150 Watts). Both running 24/7.

25800 kHz currently propagating very well during daytime. And still being
heard very well locally in Aarhus, Eastern Jutland.

Reception reports are welcome at this address: Hartvig Media, Hovedvejen 17,
DK-8920 Randers NV, Denmark. If you can afford it, kindly enclose return
postage (2 IRCs or 10 euro). If using your own receiver/antenna (and not
using someone else's remote receiver), correct reports will be acknowledged
by a printed 2025 WMR-QSL-card.

Reports via email are replied to with a no-details eQSL - when time permits.
In other words: Please be patient!

RHC 6000 off again? +  View Printable Version 
Friday, February 28 2025

HCDX

CUBA Friday Febr 28 at 12.03 UT and also again at 12.27 UT,
NOTHING on 6000 kHz channel from Made in USSR unit
at Quivican San Felipe TITAN site, empty this morning.

It’s true -- RHC shortwave communist cultural voice to Latin AM
– is slightly – GONE FOR EVER ! ?

It is time for President Trump to turn these scrap mountains of
MW and SW transmitters of USSR and China origin
in Cuba into a Trump business model ...

If the outstanding engineer Professor Arnaldo Coro had lived to see this decline.

Only two S=9+30dB signals noted of USAGM Radio Marti Miami FL
- opposition - bcaster towards Cuba island Caribbean government via
USAGM Greenville NC relay site, at 12.20 UT on Friday Febr 28.

Check at Perseus SDR unit in Detroit MI state remotedly also at this time slot :

15150even USA WMLK very new excellent Ampegon 300 kW installation
S=9 at 12.03 UT from Bethel PA state.

15350.009 TUR TRT Emirler in Turkish, scheduled 07-13.55 UT, poor S=6 signal

CUBA. Was RHC 6000 on tonight? Did not check until 0407 and no
signal. Still greatly improved mod? (Glenn to WOR iog Feb 27)
Replies:

``Just heard them at 0510 in Spanish, but can confirm that there was
nothing an hour earlier. Last night I noted an abrupt cut at 0501:30
during English. Nothing heard for at least the next quarter hour. Tony
Pavick, BC``

Yes, very strong into Masset with Spanish programming and excellent
modulation. Walt Salmaniw, BC (05:10 UTC)``

``RHC was up this morning at 1159:30 UT on 6000 khz in Spanish with a
good strong signal, with less than perfect modulation, but a
listenable signal nonetheless. I did not hear them at the same time
the day before. Tony Pavick, Hope BC``

My further monitoring Feb 27: VG Spanish at 0520 on 6000, still at
0608, 0706, even 0717+ direct at S9+45 good mod level but slight
distortion. If this be only frequency they can run at night, sensible
to split it English/Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2284)

** CUBA. 15230, Feb 27 at 1551, S6/S8 carrier, now with some suptorted
modulation seeming Spanish, so RHC improving slightly (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** ALGERIA. 15140, Feb 27 at 0726, S4/S5 JBA carrier - first thought
it might be RHC afternoon frequency testing, English at 2000 not heard

not in Aoki. At 0729 also have JBA carrier on 17600, the Béchar
frequency from 0700. Springish propcons starting to appear (Glenn

Tinang in Tagalog (Filipino) / English. So with an extra hour
1930-2030 to previously scheduled.

I tuned in yesterday (26 Feb) and, yes, the 1730 broadcast is still on
air until 2030 UTC. Very good reception on 12120 kHz and 15190 kHz,
especially at first (9925 kHz much weaker here). They still announced
just 1730-1930, together with the frequencies, at
sign on, though (anyone noticed if their 0200-0330 transmission has
also been lengthened?) 73 Alan Pennington, Lowe HF-225 Europa,
