This weekend Encore -
Classical Music on Radio Tumbril will again broadcast on a new frequency via
WWCR in Tennessee.
Saturday 21st December
21:00 UTC 9350 kHz - this is the afternoon in US and Canada and the signal
should carry to part of western Europe too.
This replaces the 01:00
Broadcast by WWCR on 6115 kHz.
Encore - Classical Music this
weekend is - of course - being broadcast as usual by Channel 292 (Europe) on
6070 kHz at 15:00 UTC Sunday 22nd December.
And by WBCQ on 7490 kHz at
01:00 UTC Monday 23rd December.
There is a repeat on 6070 kHz
on Friday 27th December at 19:00 UTC.
There may also be a
trial second repeat on 7440 kHz from Channel 292 at 10:00 UTC on Saturday - try
tuning in - it can be a nice clean signal.
Do let us know how well you
can pick up Encore at your location by emailing to encoretumbril@gmail.com. We try to reply to all emails and
will send eQSL cards for full reports.
This week's programme
has four movements of the second Branedburg concerto by Bach, more from
the excellent contemporary composer - Jim Perkins, some piano music by
Gottschalk and Rachmaninov, three Schubert songs and a serenade by Elgar. Tune
in if you can.
Both Channel 292 and WBCQ as
well as WWCR can be pulled live off the internet if the reception is poor in
your location. Easy to find their sites with a google search.
In the meantime - thank you
for spreading the word about Encore - Classical Music on Shortwave. And thank
you to everyone for letting us know how well the signal is received where you
live.
