Logs – Sunday 8th March

Frequency (kHz) Time (UTC) SINPO Notes
Bogus Man 3932 17:08 43343 Still on at 19:20. Consistently fair to good signal. Entertaining programme as always.
Orion Radio 5815 09:38 44444 Dutch music.
Combination Radio 5815 10:35 34333 “Paradise City” (Guns ‘N’ Roses). I’m not 100% certain about the ID – Shortwave Cowboys and another station, I think.
UNID 6210 10:24 13221 Weak music. Time Radio?
Mystery Radio / Playback 6220 12:49 23222 Live programme. Unfortunately, as is often the case, the Mystery Radio signal had almost faded out at this time.

Heard later at 14:17 playing “Always on My Mind” (Pet Shop Boys) with a somewhat better signal (33333).

UNID 6240 09:40 23222 “War of the Worlds” at 9:53. No ID heard.
UNID 6255 11:21 34333 “99 Luftballons” (Nena)
Antonio Radio 6265 09:34 34333 SMS number and email address given.
Radio Zodiac 6282 10:39 34333 “Suzie Q” (Creedence Clearwater Revival). At 10:50 45444.
Borderhunter 6285 09:28 44444 Summer Meeting advert repeated several times. “99 Luftballons” (Nena).
Radio Merlin International 6300 11:33 44444 “Maybe Tomorrow, Maybe Tonight” (Earth, Wind & Fire). Signal faded out abruptly around 11:50.

Strangely, I think this is the first time I have ever heard Merlin. For some reason their signal just does not propagate to my location. I hope to hear them again soon.

Radio Malaisy 6310 16:27 33333 ‘This is Malaisy broadcasting from somewhere in Southern Europe’
