\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

WBCQ’S new Radio Angela Service on 4790 kHz, which has been propagation testing during February, will begin its regular broadcast schedule on March 1 world date (February 28 US date)
\nusing the nightly hours of 10pm Eastern US time to Midnight Eastern US time (currently 0300-0500 UTC, the UTC will change with daylight savings time).\u00a0 \u00a0That two hour block will feature\u00a0 music and radio theater programs from around the world, several of which are appearing for the very first time anywhere.\u00a0 The full schedule will be published on the WBCQ website and various other places in cyberspace within a few days.\u00a0 \u00a0The March schedule will have a few repeat slots as a second wave of new programs prepares for April rollouts.
\nOn February 28 world date from 0300-0500 UTC (US time and date February 27, 10pm-Midnight EST), a two hour special program, A Taste of Radio Angela<\/em>, will be presented featuring clips from various programs that will be part of\u00a0 the service.
\nThis special 2-hour broadcast block on 4790 kHz is sponsored by Angela and Allan Weiner and curated by “Uncle Bill” Tilford, who also hosts three of the programs.\u00a0 Propagation testing during February has demonstrated that reception is mostly favorable in Eastern and Central North America from 7PM Eastern US onwards, and although the signal is aimed southwest from the transmitter in Monticello, Maine, it also lands very well in parts of Europe, especially parts of Ireland, Portugal, Germany and Italy but also in several other countries to a lesser extent.
\nAirtime will be available for purchase outside of the 10pm-Midnight program block with priority given to music (especially but not exclusively new music) and other entertainment or cultural programs that align with Radio Angela’s mission to become a stellar entertainment and cultural institution on shortwave.\u00a0 Inquiries about airtime should be directed to wbcq@wbcq.com
\nWatch the March NASWA Journal, Spectrum Monitor<\/em> and British DX Communication<\/em> magazines (and of course this space) and listen to Glenn Hauser’s World of Radio<\/em>\u00a0 for more coverage of Radio Angela.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
