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

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 [email protected].

Happy Holidays!

Best wishes and 73.

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Alan Roe, who once again has published his excellent Holiday Broadcasts on Shortwave schedule. 

Alan notes:

I have again been collating a list of programming on shortwave over the forthcoming holiday period, covering Saturday 16 December 2023 to Monday 1 January 2024.

The list includes seasonal and non-seasonal programming. Regular weekly music programming, where no special advance programme information has been provided, are not generally included in this list, but please refer to my Music on Shortwave list.

Many thanks and 73

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor and KSKO Program Director, Paul Walker, who shares the following announcement:

Tune in for two hours of nothing but Christmas tunes December 23rd and it’s extra special because it’ll be a live worldwide broadcast of KSKO on Shortwave!!

From 2300-0100UTC (2pm Alaska, 3pm Pacific, 6pm Eastern) we’ll be live across Europe on the 250,000 watts of Spaceline Bulgaria’s 5900 kHz transmitter along with the 100KW WRMI 7570 kHz covering North America and the 100KW WRMI 5085 UPDATE: 4980 kHz covering Latin America.

I’m footing the costs out of this out of my own pocket just for the heck of it!

I’m so glad you’re doing this again, Paul! We look forward to tuning in!
