Shortwave Radiogram, Program 370

 


Hello friends,


The anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, earlier this week, generated memories of that event, including the role of the mass media. While I am still able to remember 23 years ago, I decided to post a series of tweets to my X/Twitter account @kaedotcom. I was a VOA broadcaster then and played a small part in providing coverage. Those tweets are consolidated into the MFSK32 text item in this week's broadcast.

A listener alerted me to an anomaly at the swradiogram.net website. The Shortwave Radiogram transmission schedule, which displays correctly in the emails, is "clipped" on the left and right edges. If you click on that schedule, it displays completely from left to right. That will have to be the solution until I figure out a way to insert, quickly, tables in both the email (Mailchimp) and the website (Tumblr) 

A video of last week's Shortwave Radiogram (program 369) is provided by Scott in Ontario (Wednesday 1330 UTC). Mark maintains the audio archive in the UK. The analysis is provided by Roger in Germany.

Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram, program 370, 12-18 September 2024, in MFSK modes as noted:
