TEXAS RADIO SHORTWAVE ON HIATUS AFTER THIS WEEKEND
September 10 will be the final day of TRSW broadcasts for a while.
We realize this is abrupt and apologize to listeners for the short notice.
We may be back on the air, but there are no immediate plans to do that. We’ll inform hobby and media outlets if the situation changes.

That’s news! It just happened that I requested a QSL card from them last week and they replied back to me “we cannot send you a QSL card due to not enough details “.
I provided all the details required but was rejected.
Seems really strange, and now the station is ceasing operations?
What gives?!
One more thing:
You can still get the Longwave version of the PK Loop.
Place it near any portable with a ferrite bar antenna and you’re in
business:

A portable with SSB (i.e.,a BFO) is recommended.
Well, that’s disappointing. I had just started listening to them a few weeks ago.
