Hello friends
WRMI has restored several of its frequencies after damage to its antennas by Hurricane Ian. Unfortunately, last weekend, most of the frequencies used by Shortwave Radiogram were not among the frequencies back on the air. We will not repeat program 274 for a third weekend, but will present a new show. If you missed program 274, the audio file is here, and a video of reception on WINB's 9265 kHz, provided by Scott in Ontario, is here.
Shortwave Radiogram may still not be available on all its WRMI frequencies this weekend. As I type this, according to emails from WRMI, 5850, 7780 and 15770 kHz have not returned. The frequency 7730 kHz is back on the air but perhaps not at full power. Updates will be available at Twitter @SWRadiogram or twitter.com/swradiogram.
WRMI is asking for donations to help with the substantial cost of repairing it antennas and feedlines. A GoFundMe page has been established. There is also a donation link on the wrmi.net home page: Be sure to use the pull-down menu to select Hurricane Ian Damage Repairs. WRMI has been generous to Shortwave Radiogram in its five years of broadcasting. Please join me in donating if you can.
Iran has lately stepped up its blocking of the internet. This weekend, we will demonstrate the ability to use radio -- shortwave radio in this case -- to transmit text in Persian. It will be a brief excerpt from Deutsche Welle.
As mentioned above, a video of Shortwave Radiogram program 274 is provided by Scott in Ontario (Thursday 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 275, 13-18 October 2022, in MFSK modes as noted:
1:43 MFSK32: Program preview
2:57 MFSK32: Excerpt of Persian text from Deutsche Welle
4:28 MFSK32: US radio amateur elected ITU secretary general
7:06 MFSK64: Whitest paint now thin for cars and planes*
11:20 MFSK64: This week's images*
28:03 MFSK32: Closing announcements
