This weekend Encore -
Classical Music on Radio Tumbril will start broadcasting at a NEW TIME in
Europe. We have moved the 15:00 UTC Sunday transmission on 6070 kHz to 11:00 UTC
on SATURDAY on 6070 kHz with Channel 292.
There should be much less
interference from adjacent channels at this time. For now - the repeat will
continue to be on Friday evenings at 19:00 UTC as usual.
WWCR will
broadcast the Encore on Saturday at 21:00 UTC as usual on 9350 kHz. The
propagation is very good over the US and much of Canada and the signal carries
to parts of western Europe too.
(We had a reception
report from West Bengal in India last week too.)
WBCQ send out
the show on 7490 kHz at 01:00 UTC Monday to the US.
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 - though a brief report is fine.
This week's
programme Starts with some solo cello by Bach and part of the Beethoven
violin concerto. After that we will have come contemporary pieces by Thomas Adés
and Jennifer Higdon followed by some Smetena and a romance by Haydn.
The programme finishes with
First Snow by Mansell and some Mozart. I hope you enjoy it.
The playlist is on the website
- along with an email link and comments page.
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.
