Too late for last weekend's email, I was informed that the Friday 2030-2100 UTC
broadcast of Shortwave Radiogram was replaced in the WRMI by a religious
program. WRMI has provided this replacement time slot: Friday at 1300-1330 UTC
on 15770 kHz. This is directed to Europe. See the new transmission schedule
below.
I am still exploring opportunities for a transmitter closer to
Europe. In the meantime, the Sunday 2330-2400 UTC broadcast on 7780 kHz from
WRMI has lately been heard and decoded well in Europe, Unfortunately, the hour
is not convenient for most Europeans. Some listeners in Europe try "unattended
reception": radio and Fldigi, or radio and recorder, running all night.
Audacity's timer record feature can also be helpful.
The Saturday
0230-0300 UTC transmission from WINB is also often received in Europe. Due to
the peculiarities of WINB's audio, the RSIDs often do not change Fldigi's mode.
One solution would be to use a recorder, then manually change modes when
decoding from the recording.
Because of reception in
Japan this spring during the 0800 UTC broadcast, this weekend we will transmit
some Japanese text in MFSK32.
Here is the lineup for Shortwave
Radiogram, program 96, 19-21 April 2019, in MFSK modes as
