Dear listener,
Here are details of a one-off broadcast in a few day's time:
Showcase 292 will air with time donated by the station on Radio Channel 292 from Rohrbach, Germany on Monday September 7 from 2100 to 2200 UTC on 3955, 6070 and 9670 kHz. This is Channel 292’s first collaborative simulcast featuring five music and variety programs that appear on its weekly schedule – Alt Universe Top 40 (rock), Encore (classical music), From the Isle of Music (Cuban music), Uncle Bill’s Melting Pot (world and novelty music) and the Voice of the Report of the Week (listener request music plus commentary). 3955 and 9670 are both new frequencies, and listeners are encouraged to try them as a DX catch in eastern Canada and the eastern United States. A special eQSL will be available from the producer (details will be given during the broadcast). 6070 kHz will of course not be receivable in Canada due to CFRX on the same frequency.

The website is www.tumbril.co.uk where we show transmission times and frequencies, the playlist for the most recent programme, more information about Radio Tumbril, and the email link.
This week's programme begins with part of an oboe concerto and then a couple of songs prompted by Shakespeare's plays Cymbeline and The Tempest. After that we have a duet for violin and viola by Halvorsen and some of Mozart's Flute Quartet in A major. Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture next, followed by a piano trio composed by the 19th century composer Louise Farrenc.
The programme ends with the prelude from The Cunning Little Vixen and as much of Haydn's piano sonata No. 33 as we can fit in.
Channel 292 can be pulled live off the internet if the reception is poor in your location. Easy to find their site with a google search.
