Israel launched a massive attack against Iran, Radio Mitre, Argentina, 790 kHz AM

Part of the Spanish-language news bulletin from Radio Mitre (Argentina) on the Israeli attack on Iran. Listened in Porto Alegre, Brazil, on an Xhdata D-808 receiver.

“We reiterate, Israel launched a massive attack on Iran. The Israeli Ministry of Defense announced this, anticipating a strong retaliation with missiles and drones at various points across the country. Israel declared a state of emergency and warned its entire population not to leave their homes and stay close to shelters. As sirens blared across the country, Israeli officials and military personnel, led by Benjamin Netanyahu, reported that the attack targeted Iran’s nuclear facilities and would last for several days. The prime minister convened his security cabinet amid the operation dubbed “Nation of Lions.” Before the attack, a United Nations report had warned for the first time in 20 years that Iran had failed to comply with its nuclear obligations. Earlier, US President Donald Trump had called on Israel not to attack Iran because Washington was close to reaching an agreement on Tehran’s nuclear program. This is, we reiterate, an unprecedented escalation of attacks on the Iranian capital, following the Tehran government’s refusal to abandon its nuclear plan.”

New SDR Recordings from Peru and Brazil Now Available via Don Moore

Our good friend and longtime contributor Don Moore has just updated his extensive SDR recordings archive with new files from his recent travels in South America. These latest recordings—captured in Peru (February) and southern Brazil (May)—are now available to explore and download.

Don writes:

I have a webpage where most of the SDR recordings from my travels are available for download. I just added files made in Peru in February and in the far south of Brazil in May. This archive is mostly medium wave. I hope they give other DXers a chance to hear what the dial sounds like in other parts of the world. They could also be useful as a way to compare possible IDs, ads, and other programming with what you hear in your own DXing.

You can browse and download the recordings directly via Don’s archive here:
