Hello friends
If you have not done so already, please note the new transmission schedule of Shortwave Radiogram, which is listed below. We are no longer broadcasting Saturday 1330-1400 UTC. And the "red-eye" show has been moved from Sunday to Monday, same time, 0800-0830 UTC, on 5850 and (recently changed) 7780 kHz. The Sunday 2330-2400 broadcast has changed from 7780 to 7730 kHz.
Many shortwave listeners are familiar with Voice of Greece. We usually receive a good signal here in North America on 9420 kHz, with programming that includes very nice Greek music. Greek public radio broadcaster ERT had made the decision to close the shortwave service on March 31. However, "at the request of the Ministry of Defense, the Avlida shortwave broadcast centre will remain active until May 31, when re-evaluating the conditions for further continuation or not of its operation." Those "conditions" may be related to events in Ukraine, where the invasion is disrupting the internet, and in Russia, where many Western online news sites and platforms have been blocked or restricted.
This weekend on Shortwave Radiogram, we will provide the Greek Ministry of Defense a factor to consider in its evaluation of shortwave. We will transmit an excerpt of a press release in Greek from the Ministry of Defense, along with an accompanying photo. Text and images are the main components of a web page, but in this case they will be sent with no help from the internet. (If Fldigi displays rectangles instead of Greek characters, copy those rectangles to a word processor, and they might display correctly.)
There is no video of last weekend's Shortwave Radiogram (there was no adequate reception in Toronto for Scott, our primary videographer.) 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 251, 7-12 April 2022, in MFSK modes as noted:
1:38 MFSK32: Program preview
2:45 MFSK32: Greek Defense Minister meets US diplomat (Greek)*
10:29 MFSK64: Solar cells that also work at night
12:50 MFSK64: This week's images*
28:44 MFSK32: Closing announcements
