In a completely unexpected move the Danish authorities has withdrawn the permission to use out of band frequencies (on a non interference basis) for World Music Radio (WMR). This means that WMR will be ceasing operations on 5840 and 15805 kHz tomorrow Sunday September 15th 2009 at 2200 UTC. WMR may return to shortwave - using frequencies inside the official SW bands - but this may take several months.
Meanwhile WMR continues being available via internet streaming at www.wmr.dk - and hopefully also soon on medium wave 927 kHz in Copenhagen.
Reception reports may be sent to wmr@wmr.dk - or to World Music Radio, PO Box 112, DK-8960 Randers SØ, Denmark (please enclose return postage).
