From the Isle of Music, April 15-21:<\/strong><\/em>
\nApril is Jazz Appreciation Month around the world, and we are going to celebrate by taking a look at some of the roots of modern Cuban Jazz in both Cuba and the United States. This week, we are going to listen to some important and historic recordings made in the United States as what we now call Afro Cuban Jazz was being born.
\nFour opportunities to listen on shortwave:
\n1. For Eastern Europe but audible well beyond the target area in most of the Eastern Hemisphere (including parts of East Asia and Oceania) 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 EST in the US). This has been audible in parts of NW, Central and Southern Europe with an excellent skip to Italy recently.
\n3 & 4. For Europe and sometimes beyond, Tuesday 1900-2000 UTC and Saturday 1200-1300 UTC on Channel 292, 6070 KHz from Rohrbach, Germany.
\nUncle Bill’s Melting Pot, Sunday, April 15, 2018<\/strong><\/em>
\nEpisode 58 honors Jazz Appreciation Month by checking out some very early Jazz releases (including the “first” ones).

\nWBCQ The Planet 7490 KHz shortwave from the US to the Americas and parts of Europe
