Hello friends
Last week (program 268) an automation problem at WRMI Florida shifted the frequency for the 1300 UTC Friday show (August 19) from 15770 (which had classic hits instead) to 5850 kHz. Sorry for this unfortunate surprise. If this happens again, try other WRMI frequencies. The @SWRadiogram Twitter discussion usually finds the frequency fairly quickly.
This weekend's program will be all-English, again. There will be ten images: 1 x MFSK32 an 9 x MFSK64.
A video of last weekend's Shortwave Radiogram (program 268) is provided by Scott in Ontario (who, because of the 15770 mishap, changed his usual reception schedule to Sunday 2330 UTC). The audio archive is maintained by Mark in the UK. Analysis is prepared by Roger in Germany.
Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram, program 269, 25-30 August 2022, in MFSK modes as noted:
1:35 MFSK32: Program preview
2:42 MFSK32: Milestone for commercial electric airplane*
7:49 MFSK64: Urban crops can have high yields
12:18 MFSK64: This week's images*
28:36 MFSK32: Closing announcements
* with image(s)
