Hello everyone,
This is just a little announcement post for the next instalment of RNEI!
Our show for July 2020 will have a few pop, traditional and dance songs for you to enjoy!
We are also trialling a digital text system using MFSK16 that could potentially run throughout next show. It’s a little above 5K audio so to decode it you will need to adjust your equipment to receive it!
A reminder to go to https://rnei.org/stereo/ to learn how to decode the stereo in our broadcasts.
Just in time we managed to get the TIAEMS segment into the final show file and I’ve literally just finished listening to it and I can confirm it is good so hopefully you stick around for that!
Some guides:

Wishing all of you all the best and I really hope you enjoy this show,
Roseanna,
Radio Northern Europe International
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Richard Langley, who writes:
Just a quick note to let you know that Radio Algérie Internationale is now broadcasting for an hour on SW using an Issoudun transmitter. The multilingual (French, Arabic, English, and Spanish) broadcast is at 18:00 UTC, presumed daily, is on 13820 kHz. I heard it very well yesterday using the U.Twente SDR receiver but it might also be heard well in eastern North America.
Richard did include a small disclaimer that Issoudun seems to be using their faulty transmitter with a “squeaky” sound in the background. I’m sure many of you are familiar with this–fortunately, it’s not too distracting.
Thank you for the tip, Richard!
