Hello friends,
Apologies, especially to North
Americans who were awake at an inconvenient hour, for the missing Shortwave
Radiogram last Sunday at 0600 UTC on 7730 kHz. The legal difficulties of Brother
Stair, a major WRMI client, caused a sudden reduction in the WRMI transmission
schedule.
Jeff White at WRMI has kindly offered
us Monday at 0800-0830 UTC on 7730 kHz and (for this weekend at least) 5850 kHz.
This Monday is a holiday, but when Monday reverts to being a work day, North
Americans might want to consider using Audacity’s timer record. Or just leave
Fldigi running all night, then read the text and look at the images in the
morning.
Please also note that The Mighty KBC
is changing frequency this weekend to 6150 kHz for its North America broadcast,
UTC Sunday at 0000-0200 UTC. The new frequency replaces 5960 kHz.
Last weekend’s holiday lights special
produced some very nice decoded MFSK32 images from all parts of the world. See
the examples above and at the bottom of this email. Additional images have been
posted to @SWRadiogram, or https://twitter.com/swradiogram . If you missed the broadcast,
Scott in Ontario provided this video, suitable for your own decoding.
This weekend we will transmit images of
Happy New Year in the fourteen languages of the Shortwave Radiogram listeners
who are currently sending reception reports or reporting decodes to
@SWRadiogram. Sorry if I missed anyone’s language. There will be four additional
MFSK32 images, for a total of 18!
Here is the lineup for Shortwave
Radiogram, program 28, 30-31 December 2017, all in
MFSK32:
