UNID at 17,900 KHz
« on: October 08, 2024, 1259 UTC »
Yesterday, I was cruising the shortwave broadcast bands, and I came across a station that isn't listed at www.short-wave.info. The frequency was 17,900 KHz and it was a Christian station, in American English. It was at 1500 UTC. Can anyone help me identify this station? Also, is there a website other than www.short-wave.info to help identify UNIDs? Thanks in advance.

Hi Mark,

Overcomer Ministry aka Brother Stair via Kostinbrod, Bulgaria.

Also, is there a website other than www.short-wave.info to help identify UNIDs?

Here's another:

https://shortwaveschedule.com

This one is using the same database as www.short-wave.info. Both get their data from the Aoki-list.
