LRA 36 Radio Nacional Arcangel San Gabriel schedule?
« on: August 09, 2022, 1816 UTC »
LRA 36 Radio Nacional Arcangel San Gabriel is the shortwave station from Antarctica. Does anyone know the correct schedule? I can’t seem to find what times, says, frequency, etc. it operates. I also can’t find out if they operate only on special occasions or operate regularly.

I have already seen that and it doesn’t say anything about broadcasts after May 7.

I think they only broadcast on special occasions, intermittently, like announced here:

You might try emailing them to confirm:
