This time, the main headline of Kyodo News Morning Edition it’s about the passing of the world-renowned conductor Seiji Ozawa.
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, David Iurescia, who shares the following announcement from the SDXF website (translated via Google Translate):
Tuesday, February 13, 2024, it is time again for World Radio Day. Sweden’s DX Association participates in the celebration with a newly produced special program. As in previous broadcasts, there will be a mix of interviews and other features. This time some of the program items are in English. Those listeners who got in touch after our last broadcast, on December 26, 2023, will be notified in a shorter mailbox.
The world’s shortest music program this time presents music from Peru. As usual, the broadcast has been put together by Göran Lindemark.
This time too, the program will be broadcast on shortwave on Channel 292 in Germany. The frequency is 9670 kHz. The program is broadcast at 11.00 with a repeat at 15.00 Swedish winter time.
Reports and comments can be emailed to us . It is then our QSL manager Gert Nilsson who answers the listener post. Feel free to comment on the program content!
We hope for a good reception and that the program content will be of interest. Unfortunately, it is now very unusual to have Swedish-language programs on shortwave.
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Alan Roe, who shares his B-23 (version 4.0) season guide to music on shortwave. Alan provides this amazing resource as a free PDF download:

As always, thank you for sharing your excellent guide, Alan!
This dedicated page will always have the latest version of Alan’s guide available for download.
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor and noted political cartoonist, Carlos Latuff, who shares his radio log art of a recent Voice of Korea broadcast.
Carlos’ goal is to vividly illustrate the broadcaster’s message in his own unique artistic style and is not a reflection of his own beliefs or those of the SWLing Post. His objective is for his artwork to add historical context and put a visual with the news, reporting, and broadcast content:
Carlos notes:
EEUU, El Lobo Desdentado, La Voz de Corea (en español), RPDC, 12015 kHz.
“…es una conducta imbécil confiar la garantía de seguridad en un lobo desdentado que está desesperado para mantener su vida precaria…“
(“…it is a foolish act to get a security guarantee by relying on a toothless wolf trying to prolong its remaining days…”)
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Paul Walker, who has notified us that KSKO (his FM station in McGrath, Alaska) will be on shortwave every Friday from 21:00 to 22:00 UTC via Spaceline Bulgaria on 5,900 kHz.
As of last week, this will be a weekly broadcast spot for KSKO.
Thanks for the tip, Paul!
