Hello friends,
Not many of us are awake for the "red-eye" edition of Shortwave Radiogram Mondays at 0800-0830 UTC (4:00 am EDT) on 5850 kHz. I was awake this past Monday (29 July), when I heard the WRMI station ID at 0800 UTC. Then silence. After about a minute WRMI's filler music (an interesting, eclectic mix) started. WRMI responded to my email, but I don't think they ever found out what happened. All the other transmissions of program 363 on WRMI (and WINB) were broadcast as scheduled.
Here in northern Virginia, it's still hot. We're on track to experience the most days per summer above 90F/32C. And there is the humidity and the drought. At least I'm retired now and no longer must cope with cars on the Washington Metro (subway) with broken air conditioning. That made for an interesting evening commute.
A video of last week's Shortwave Radiogram (program 363) is provided by Scott in Ontario (Wednesday 1330 UTC). The audio archive is maintained by Mark in the UK. Analysis is provided by Roger in Germany.
Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram, program 364, 1-7 August 2024, in MFSK modes as noted:
