This is the seventh in a series of weekly WRMI relays of European 
pirates and low-power licensed broadcasters, many of which haven’t been 
heard in North America for many years — if ever.  The remainder of the 
series looks like this:
August 21 - Atlantic 2000 International, France
August 28 - Radio Delta International, The Netherlands.
Beginning on September 4 in NAm (September 5 UTC), Texas Radio 
Shortwave, Limpia Mountains Radio, and WRMI begin a new series of 
Europirate relays on a different day of the week and on a different 
frequency.  An announcement’s been posted on TRSW’s Facebook page 
(https://www.facebook.com/texasradiosw).
WRMI’s transmitters are located in Okeechobee, Florida, USA.
Texas Radio Shortwave lurks stealthily in international waters off the 
South Texas coast.  Its programs are regularly broadcast in North 
America and Europe.
Limpia Mountains Radio operates from a cave on Brooks Mountain in Jeff 
Davis County in far West Texas.  It coproduces radio programs with Texas 
Radio Shortwave.
