Title: Vatican radio (reception?)
Post by: Matt285 on July 15, 2020, 1844 UTC

I saw the other day that there was a scheduled broadcast in English from Radio Vatican. Does anyone in the U.S receive this broadcast often? Thanks

I have logged them on the board (above link), most recently this past April in English.  I'm guessing I have heard them in a half dozen languages including the Liturgy Mass in Latin.  I had not heard a Mass in Latin since personal attendance in the 1960's just before Vatican II.  I have never had trouble receiving Vatican Radio when I searched for it.  I will go out of my way to listen during religious holidays, breaking stories about the Pope/Church, or international events concerning the Vatican.  They use to be pretty reliable with QSL's and Church related material, not so much any more.

Thanks for responding. I'll keep an ear out.
