Hello shortwave listeners! I wanted to share an exciting update about a new high power broadcast I’ll be doing for listeners in Africa, Europe and beyond!
Beginning Monday the 11th of December, 2023 and continuing every Monday – this radio program will be heard across Africa, Europe & Beyond from a high power transmitter in Issoudun, France.
The broadcast is 1 hour in length and I always consider it to be a light entertainment program. The aim of this radio show is to provide good music and occasional news commentary to listeners worldwide. Oftentimes, listener music requests are taken and played – and all are invited to participate.
Here is the broadcast schedule for this additional airing:
Mondays 1900 UTC – 11920 kHz – Issoudun 100 kW – Africa, Europe, Middle East
For this airing I will resume QSL verification of reception reports, there will be a new QSL every month!
Reception reports and feedback are most welcome at [email protected]
That’s all for today, I just wanted to let you all know that there’s a new airing out there if you’d like something to listen to!

Anyone have any idea where he lives, about, IE country, you used to actually had to go to the studio in the old day’s, not any longer, will have dial that into the VFO on my Kenwood HF transceiver and see how well he sounds, old ham here, have an Alpha Delta for 160 up about 75 feet, worked Sibera with 1 KW so I should be able to hear him if the conditions are right.

It looks like a 100 kW transmitter, although they also have some 250 kW transmitters. The site is Radio France Internationale. They rent transmitter time for money.
