Unfortunately I've never been able to hear Radio Serbia's English Service at all, so I'll definitely vigorously try to pick them up before June 30th, possibly try to record them while I'm at it.

I wish Voice of Croatia would come back. I listened to them all the time. Recorded them too.

I hate to hear that. Serbia never had a huge signal at my locale, but it was steady and solid copy. Most of those Balkan stations were like that.

BTW, is Albania still on the air?
