World Music Radio (WMR) has a new frequency in the 19 mb:  15790 kHz.
(Previously on 15805) On the air every Saturday and Sunday 0700-2000
UTC. Power is 200 W into a 3 element yagi (due South).

Testing from today Friday if everything works ok. I will probably leave 
the transmitter on all weekend - from now continuously until Sunday 20 UTC.
Reception reports are welcome to World Music Radio, PO Box 112, DK-8960 
Randers SØ, Denmark (for a printed QSL-card, pennant and stickers - 
please enclose return postage 2 IRCs or 5 euro if you can) or via email 
to wmr@wmr.dk (for an eQSL).  Please note that reception reports using 
remote receivers are not QSLed. I try to reply to all reports within 1-2 
months. 5840 kHz (24h) will be changed to 5930 kHz (0700-1745) before 
the end of December 2020. 927 kHz (24h) is due on the air in January 2021.

Radio208 has transmitter problems. 5805 kHz (250W) from Hvidovre went 
silent late on November 22nd. Back on the air on the new frequency of 
5970 kHz (200W) December 9th - but nothing on December 10th. Today 
December 11th from 1030 UTC the transmitter is back on the air, but we 
have lowered power to 50 Watt only, hoping that the transmitter can work 
with this. So Radio208 now on 5970 kHz (50W) daily 0700-1600 UTC.

1440 kHz (24h) remains on the air from Ishøj, Copenhagen.

Vi comunico le seguente notizia per gli ascoltatori delle onde corte asiatiche:
A partire da domenica 13 dicembre, Radio Taiwan International riprenderà le trasmissioni a onde corte in lingua coreana. Durante una cerimonia tenutasi oggi nella sede della stazione radio, il presidente del consiglio di RTI, Lu Ping, ha evidenziato i molti aspetti comuni che Taiwan e la Corea del Sud hanno in comune e ha evidenziato lo scambio audiovisivo e culturale con cui entrambi i paesi possono imparare gli uni dagli altri. Il ripristino delle trasmissioni in coreano attraverso l'onda corta è una nuova pietra miliare che rafforzerà ulteriormente le relazioni tra i due paesi.
