NOTE - 03:00
– 04:00 UTC Monday 5950 kHz WRMI to
the US and Canada is a new frequency to improve propagation -
was 9455 kHz.
NOTE -
Occasionally recently WRMI have slotted in an extra transmission
of Encore on 5800 kHz at 03:00 on Saturday morning. If they do
it will be the first airing of the new programme. The
reason being that I routinely upload the fresh mp3 files on
Thursday evening to Channel 292 and WRMI.
NOTE -
03:00 - 04:00 UTC Thursday on 5800 kHz may not be available for
Encore for the next two weeks due to scheduling.
NOTE -
Apologies for the persistent RTTY on the LSB of the 13:00 UTC
transmissions of Encore from WRMI on 15770 audible in parts of
northern Europe in recent weeks. Somebody's navy presumably.
Special Broadcast
soon:
On December 31, Radio Channel 292 will
present a 2-hour special, Neujahrsgrüsse von Radio Channel 292 featuring segments from nine different
music programs with classical, jazz, rock, Cuban and
volksmusik from 2300-0100 UTC on 3955 (10kw), 6070 (100kw from
Moosbrunn) and 9670 (10kw) hHz. It will repeat on all three
frequencies at 10kw from 0900-1100 UTC on January 1. Time
for the 10kw transmissions was donated by the station. Encore
will be providing the classical music.
The website
is
www.tumbril.co.uk where we show transmission
times and frequencies, the playlist for the most recent programme,
more information about Radio Tumbril, and the email link.
This
week's programme starts with the Sussex Carol and
is followed by a piece composed by Bach for Christmas. Then there
will be some contemporary music from the American pioneer Milton
Babitt. Holst's version of In the Bleak Midwinter arranged for
cello and piano follows on. The second part of the programme
begins with some Kurtag 'fragments' leading into a piece for Viola
by Robert Schumann, part of Handel's Messiah and finally Spiegel
im Spiegel composed by Arvo Pärt. I hope you enjoy the variety and
juxtapositions.
Channel 292
can be pulled live off the internet if the reception is poor in
your location. Easy to find their site with a google search.
