VOA Radiogram, 7-8 May 2016

VOA Radiogram this weekend will include an eight-minute story in Olivia 64-2000. This will allow further experimentation with this slow but robust mode. If we enjoy poor reception conditions, the experiments will be even more interesting.

Here is the lineup for VOA Radiogram, program 162, 7-8 May 2016, all in MFSK32 except where noted:

1:34  Program preview
2:41  Rubbish-burning experiment in Norway*
7:55  Olivia 64-2000: UAE may make mountain to change climate*
18:34  MFSK32: FCC considers change to amateur data regulations*
23:37  Closing announcements*
* with image
