Heard 1458 UTC onward. Signal is only fair at the moment (SINPO 23222) and had to hunt around for an SDR with their signal above the noise. OK on an SDR in Germany and another in the UK at the moment.

572
Assumed due to frequency and programming. SINPO 35333 on a UK SDR.
0711 - The Rolling Stones, "Tumbling Dice".


edit subject by Ray : deleting 'presumed'

573
Actually on 6254.98 KHz. SINPO 24232 (most of the time) on SDR in UK.

0654 - "Chattanooga Choo Choo".
0656 - Announcements in English (I think) but too much noise to understand.
0657 - Paul McCartney and Wings, "Band on the Run".
0659 - Carrier off the air in the middle of "Band on the Run".

574
0756 - The Who, "A Legal Matter"
0759 - "We thank you for listening and King Shortwave is now closing down."
0800 - Carrier Off

OK so when I follow the money on who is driving the pushback to cutting meat consumption, I find this:

Quote
Backed by the state’s pork producers and the Missouri Cattlemen’s Association, the bill appears to be a product of meat lobbies spooked by the country’s growing taste for vegetarian substitutes, and its language parallels that of a House bill sponsored by Republican State Representative Jeff Knight, a former livestock auctioneer.

Wait, a big US industry putting down big money to legislate something in their interest. Pshaw. Say it isn't so.  ;)  But not all the meatless industry is worried.

Quote
That’s the future that Brown sees for companies like his: as collaborators with, not adversaries of, big agriculture. He said that Beyond Meat is currently exploring ways to team with growers of cattle grazing land to see how some of that acreage can be used to produce the legumes that the company uses in its foods.

Usual programming. SINPO 44333 in Austria at 1735 UTC.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortwave_radio
" Thus shortwave radio can be used for very long distance communication, in contrast to radio waves of higher frequency which travel in straight lines..."

Changed a couple of words and voila, a mess of a sentence. A great example of professional reporting today.

"Shortwave radio bands are able travel long distances using very high frequencies, unlike traditional radio waves that need to travel in straight lines. "

Wow, they really screwed that up. Couldn't they have just referenced the Wikipedia article?

Reminds of a time when I heard the announcer on a TV station news program talking about a proposed high-voltage power line interchanging "high voltage" with "high frequency" a few times in the space of three minutes. It made me cringe.

It also reminds me of the times in the 1980s when the launches of the US Space Shuttle would be delayed by electrical problems, which would almost always be described in US TV news as "a short circuit". It didn't matter what the electrical problem was, it might have been a software issue or a defective sensor, but it was always described as "a short circuit." I'm fairly certain that NASA paid a lot of attention to wiring inside the rocket and you can imagine that if a NASA rocket had an actual short circuit, there would have been hell to pay. So describing everything as a short circuit was ridiculous to me.

Coming back around to the original topic - it's fair to say that I would not go to CNN Business for a proper description of electromagnetic wave propogation. It's also fair to say that I would not go to Scientific American for a description of the intricacies of the the bond market. So there's that.

. This push to cut meat consumption is being pushed by those with ties to the fake meat companies.

Ummm.

Well, those folks may be financially interested, it's not like they are the only ones advocating for it. There are plenty of people with no expectation of financial gain pointing out the issues. Jim's reference is a starting point.

(time for lunch, I leave it to you Kay)

Mais, c'est trop tard pour le dejeuner! (et trop tôt pour le dîner/souper.)

KaySeeks, even if it's R. Rainbow again, I will leave that as a new subject. Much clearer like that.

Pas de problème. I just realized that they have been reported twice on two frequencies already today. Yes, it could be confusing.

581
Rainbow seems to have returned, I think. Pretty sure that I heard the familiar female announcer's voice at one point.
SINPO 34333 on an SDR in Norway at 1700 UTC.

ID, I think, in English at 1720 but I have some Internet connection issues today and my feed drops every 10 seconds Fixed
1722 - Greetings to listeners. "May you have decent signals."
1732 - Clear ID
1739 - "Owner of a Lonely Heart"
1741 - The Clash, "Should I Stay or Should I Go". Signal is fading down and becoming noisier in Norway.
1745 - Nirvana
1749 - I must go do some other things. Cheers!

to steer listeners in the direction of breaking the law, which I had said, does not mean asking people to break the law. Let's be precise, shall we?

Hi Jock. Unintentionally expanding upon what Chris wrote, I'm going to be argumentative - just for some Sunday entertainment here - and note the irony that you are worried about a radio broadcaster that is breaking the law just by its mode of operation advocating for listeners to to break the law by sending some cash in the post. I realize that the scale of the crimes are somewhat different as is who performs them, but I couldn't let that pass.

"Shortwave radio bands are able travel long distances using very high frequencies, unlike traditional radio waves that need to travel in straight lines. "

Possibly the worst explanation I have ever read.

584
Very good signal in Norway with Slavic male vocals at 1947.
1949 - Song with mentions of "Ukrainian Salo". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salo_(food)
1953 - ID in Russian. Radio Pravaka Pravokator.
1957 - Announcer sending greetings to us!  большое спасибо. Я мало что понимаю. Ваш сигнал очень хороший в Норвегии.
2009 - Ann saying something about Moskow.
2025 - Said that they are from Moskow.
2030 - I (KaySeeks) must go.  :'(  Good night. Мне (кэй сйкс) надо идти. Доброй ночи.

585
I checked if it was a 3rd harmonic - should be 1806,3 kHz fundamental, but nothing heard there.

That would be in the 160 meter ham radio band. Seems unlikely.
