Hello friends

One or more of the WINB transmissions might begin with the text "Welcome to program 186 of Shortwave Radiogram." The show actually is program 258.  This error will not appear in the WRMI transmissions.

The repeat broadcast last weekend is because my wife and I traveled by Amtrak to San Francisco. This involved two trains: Washington DC to Chicago (Capitol Limited), then Chicago to Emeryville, California (across the bay from San Francisco). We saw lots of great scenery along the way, including canyons visible only from trains or riv craft. After two days in San Francisco, we flew back to DC. A photo from the trip will be transmitted this weekend on Shortwave Radiogram.

Thanks to Mitch @Plano26 and Al @WD4AH_Al for monitoring the @SWRadiogram Twitter May 26-31.

A video of the previous Shortwave Radiogram (program 257)  is provided by Scott in Ontario (May 27, 1300, UTC). The audio archive is maintained by Mark in the UK. The analysis is prepared by Roger in Germany.
