Radio Tirana on 5850 AM?
« on: May 06, 2017, 2308 UTC »
Hi all, i have a shortwave schedule app on my Ipad and i notice Radio Tirana is broadcasting on that frequency and the targeting area is Western North America. Would anyone confirm that? I did hear the interval signal and this was on the Twente websdr.

I have it with fair reception in New England at 2315z.  It is a WRMI relay aimed at the west (315 degrees).  Right now,  they are playing music.

Tecsun H501x (broadcast received on this unless noted), Zenith T/O G500, Zenith T/O Royal 7000, Emerson AR-176, Zenith 8S154, T/O 7G605 (Bomber), Tecsun PL-600, Tecsun PL-880, Zenith 5S320, Realistic DX 160 using 40 feet of copper wire.  With apologies to Senator Gramm for his thoughts on firearms, "I have more radios than I need but not as many as I want."
