Dear radio friends,
Here is the schedule of Radio Damascus for the broadcasting season A10. No changes have been made in times and or frequencies. So the A10 schedule is the same as the B09 schedule.
Radio Damascus is still aware of the problems with the shortwave transmitters (weak modulation) and the bad reception quality due to the very low audio. They are working towards a solution so please stay tuned as hopefully a solution will be introduced in the course of this year.
All times UTC
