From the Isle of Music<\/strong><\/em>, Sept 17-23
\nFor serious DXers only
\nThis week includes an interview recorded under very difficult conditions. Even after editing, the interview section may be a listening challenge for some. After considerable thought, we decided to include it as a reminder of what many of us have listened through at times over the years. The music, however, will be as clear as listening conditions in your area permit.
\nFour opportunities to listen on shortwave:
\n1. For\u00a0Eastern Europe but audible well beyond the target area in all directions with 100Kw, Sunday 1500-1600 UTC on SpaceLine, 9400 KHz, from Kostinbrod, Bulgaria (1800-1900 MSK)
\n2. For the Americas and parts of Europe, Tuesday 0000-0100 UTC on WBCQ, 7490 KHz from Monticello, ME, USA (Monday 8-9PM EDT in the US)
\n3 & 4. For Europe and sometimes beyond, Tuesday 1900-2000 UTC and Saturday 1200-1300 UTC on Channel 292, 6070 KHz from Rohrbach, Germany.<\/span><\/p>\n

Put a little Salsa on it….
\nEpisode 28 of Uncle Bill’s Melting Pot<\/strong><\/em> will feature some excellent Salsa bands and Charanga orchestras based in the United States. This is our first episode at our new date and time, Sunday, September 17 at 2200-2230 UTC (6:00pm-6:30pm EDT US) on WBCQ 7490 Khz<\/p>\n
