Scandinavian Weekend Radio missing?
« on: October 01, 2022, 2038 UTC »
Anyone know what is happening with Scandinavian Weekend Radio? Today is the first Saturday of the month in Finland and I have heard nothing from them today or yesterday.

Songs are identified with Shazam if needed. I usually use KiwiSDR receivers. Reception from my QTH is using an SDRPlay RSP1A for SWL with a 40 meter band Inverted V at 40 feet. Kenwood TS-570D for ham use.

Acording to their website October-broadcast will take place on October 8th, 2022.

Thank you, I didn’t see that. I wonder why not the first Saturday?

According to WRTH the station runs on a series of temporary licences for 3 months (Feb-Apr, June-Aug, Oct-Dec) with no transmissions in Jan, May, Sep as required by law before a new series of licences is entitled. I guess there might be a certain amount of days with no transmission, and the time from Aug 6th to Oct 1st could have been to short.

My Great Aunt heard voices sending her messages from radios and TV's. How would Cunk explain that?
