Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor Terry Colgan of Texas Radio Shortwave, who writes:

Hi – Here’s our program schedule for the first three months of 2025. We’re continuing to air monthly programs over Channel 292, Rohrbach, Germany, featuring Texas musicians (except in January).

We kick off the New Year with an hour of programming from Swedish pirate station Radio Igloo. It’s been a long time since they’ve been widely heard in North America, and we hope they receive a good response to the program. TRSW and Radio Igloo will issue separate QSLs for correct, detailed reception reports.

We’ve changed the time of our MixCloud streams to make them more accessible to worldwide fans of music by Texas artists and old-time radio shows. Previously, the stream time favored North American enthusiasts. We offer different QSL designs for reports on the MixCloud streams.

Here’s our December 25 program schedule featuring holiday music by Texas artists. The BIG NEWS is our 0300 UTC broadcast from Woofferton, UK, with 250 kW. Intended primarily for North American listeners, the high-power broadcast should provide good reception in other parts of the world.

We’ll offer different QSL designs for Channel 292 and Woofferton. Detailed reception reports should be emailed to texasradioshortwave@protonmail.com.

Happy Holidays!

Radio Victoria Shortwave-Revival 2024

In the eighties for numerous shortwave listeners in German-speaking Europe this
station was a part of their youth. For some it was even a small footprint on the path
to private broadcasting in Germany.

Radio Victoria, the “independent shortwave music station”, comes sponsored through
a former member of the “Victoria Listener Club” back on shortwave with a revival broadcast of the four-hour annual hit parade from 1984 and station operator Roger Kirk,
who died in 2012.

Once broadcasted on Radio Milano International in the 41 meter band over the turn of the year 1984/1985, after forty years now again 2024/2025 relayed via Shortwave Gold from Northern Germany on 6160kHz and this exactly on the analog broadcast days and times – with the quasi-first broadcast on Boxing Day and the two repetitions on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day:

December 26, 2024 from 09:00 UTC to 13:00 UTC
December 31, 2024 from 09:00 UTC to 13:00 UTC
January 1, 2025 from 09:00 UTC to 13:00 UTC

Have good reception and much fun while listening to “the queen of the airwaves” back again on shortwave!
