July 2023 Broadcast Schedule for VORW Radio International!

Hello shortwave listeners! With a new month just around the corner, I wanted to provide an up to date broadcast schedule for my transmissions to North America.

This radio program is 1 Hour in length and features miscellaneous discussion (sometimes about current events, other times about random subjects on my mind) at the start of the program and is then balanced out with listener requested music. I hope for it to be an enjoyable light entertainment program with good music and discussion!

There are two new shows each week, along with various repeat airings for listeners who might not be able to catch the new shows as they first air.

Main Broadcasts:

Shortwave DB: A new database of HF radio schedules

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Dan Ervin, who writes:

Hi Thomas –
Long time fan of your blog. I recently stumbled upon a (new to me) Shortwave Broadcast Schedule database. It is aggregated from AOKI, EiBi and HFCC databases. Home|Shortwave DB™

Not sure if you’ve seen it? But I’ve been using it for about a week now and I really like it! Just passing it along!

Dan Ervin

Thank you for the tip, Dan. I was not familiar with this database either. Many of the online databases I’ve used in the past have either been abandoned or haven’t been updated in several seasons. I look forward to exploring this one. Thanks again!

Eifeler Radiotage on Shortwave: May 12 – May 14, 2023

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Gérard Koopal, who shares the following announcement from Christian Milling. Note that this announcement was originally in German (this English translation via Google):


Photo source: Eifeler Radiotage

Next weekend – after 3 years of corona-related postponements – the Eifeler Radiotage will finally rise again.

This time there is no thematic focus like in 2019 (July: 70 years of UKW, November: 30 years of the fall of the Berlin Wall), but we are ringing in the “big entertainment weekend”. Our team makes 50 hours of hand-picked radio – no voice tracking, no AI, no frills. Quite simply: radio broadcast.

The broadcasts are broadcast online, both in audio and video form at https://www.eifeler-radiotage.de/. Here you can already find the content and the broadcast schedule. All times as always in local Eifel kitchen time.
At the same time, the programs will also be broadcast on shortwave at the following times:

Friday:

4-6 p.m.: Shortwave 3985 kHz
6-9 p.m.: Shortwave 6005 kHz
9 p.m. to midnight: Shortwave 3985 kHz

Saturday:

12:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.: Shortwave 3985 kHz
8 a.m. – 12 p.m.: Shortwave 6005 kHz
6-9 p.m.: Shortwave 6005 kHz
9 p.m. to midnight: Shortwave 3985 kHz

Sunday:

12:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.: Shortwave 3985 kHz
8 a.m. – 12 p.m.: Shortwave 6005 kHz

A simulcast also takes place in the popEXPRESS program on DAB channel 12A in Bad Kreuznach and around.

Visits to the bunker are possible as part of a guided tour: On May 12th and 13th there are the regular tours at 4 p.m., for groups of 10 or more people there is also the possibility to request individual tours: https://www.ausweichsitz-nrw .de/veranstaltungen/fuehrungen/bunkerpur
