Title: Russian metal band mentions being back on WBCQ! X2!! (And yes, I've translated.)
Post by: ThaDood on October 03, 2021, 0608 UTC

I bought time on WBCQ's 7490kHz AM for a review of the Russian Metal band, Master's, latest release, Sunday evening 9PM EST, Monday 01:00UTC. And, they've mentioned this on their main web site as their latest news,    http://master-rockgroup.com/



But, if your Russian really sucks, like mine, here's the translation by that big-ass WBCQ mic logo:

"Radio review of the album "Master of Time
Master,Yesterday 3:29 pm

This Sunday, The Underground JAM program on American Independent Radio will feature a review of the "Master of Time" album. Spanish-language songs will also be aired.

Well, I think it's kind of neat. how many bands do you know that mention that they will be heard on shortwave radio?

I love it when propagation works. 7490kHz AM banged in at my QTH at S25/9, and that's with 1/2-leg of a Windom. The 9/23/2021 storm ripped the other leg out. Hope to do it again in a few weeks, but this time, on 3265kHz AM. Stay tuned!!!!!

UPDATE 11/18/2021: Master put up a Youtube VID of the show here,   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQXbP5pdSBU

I've wanted a 2nd run of the corrected The Underground JAM, so when a spot opened, I'm hopping on it. So, back on WBCQ, 7490kHz AM, Saturday, December 4th, 7PM - 8PM EST, or 00:00UTC - 01:00UTC. Now, if we can get those solar flares to stay away. Hopefully, propagation at the time should favor Europe and Russia, to the East, and I'd suspect regional, Eastern Canada and USA. HAPPY DX'ing!!!! BTW, you can download the show here, https://archive.org/details/the-underground-jam-slate-no-tuj-09122021-review-of-master-master-of-time

BTW, I'll totally be missing this, since I've got to work them. So, if anyone can listen-in to 7490kHz then, and comment, that would be great.

Huh... From what I gather, 7490kHz went way long SAT evening, and skipped over most of the NE USA and Canada, but may have reached the Caribbean and E. South American countries. I guess, time will tell.
