Carlos’ Shortwave Art and Recording of Raadiyoonii Dirree Shaggar

Leave a reply

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor and noted political cartoonist, Carlos Latuff, who shares yet another example of his radio log art, this time for clandestine station, Raadiyoonii Dirree Shaggar.

Carlos notes:

Raadiyoonii Dirree Shaggar, 15330 kHz, clandestine station broadcasting in the Oromo language from Issoudun, France, to Ethiopia.

Weak signal, too much noise and possibly jamming.

Excerpt from the audio quotes “Shoa towns”, probably referring to news that Tigray troops are leaving some regions of Ethiopia. The country has been facing a civil war since November 2020.

Thanks to Hamza Oromo for his kindness in unraveling this audio.

Signal captured at Parque da Catacumba, Rio de Janeiro, on December 21, 2021, at 1:13 pm, local time.

Thank you Mr. Abel Work for the translation of what is said in this audio clip:

“I just listened to the audio clip and 95% of it is just noise and from the couple of sentences that I got, they are talking about that the TPLF has created a lot of people displaced from their home and they need all Ethiopians to help these people with everything including food and shelter”.

Help Carlos ID this mystery digital signal

8 Replies

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Carlos Latuff, who shares the following:

I bought a small analog radio and I’ve been listening with it.

On September 4, around 17h48 UTC, I heard a strange signal on the band of 13 kHz, since it’s not a digital dial, I don’t know precisely the frequency but maybe if your readers may listen to the signal they may tell what it is about.

It almost sounds like the preamble to an SSTV message, but I’m not sure about that noise that’s in between. Readers, if you can help Carlos ID this signal, please comment!
