Many thanks to\u00a0SWLing Post<\/em> contributor Bill Tilford, who shares the following update:<\/strong><\/p>\n

From the Isle of Music, November 2026<\/strong>
\nThis month, we’ll taste some vintage artists from Cuba like Los Guaracheros del Oriente and Guillermo Portabales. I’ll be wearing mi sombrero de yarey while recording it.

Uncle Bill’s Melting Pot, November 2026<\/strong>
\nThis month, the fascinating Ian Brennan joins us during the first half hour to present his new release by the Red Spirit Singers, a Ute Nation (Utah) ensemble, “Land of the Sun”. The second half will feature a new release by the Moroccan musical duo Seffarine.
\nFriday, November 20, 1600-1700 UTC, 3955, 6070 and 9670 kHz<\/p>\n

All from Channel 292 auf Kurzwelle (on shortwave) in Germany. In addition to terrestrial listening, we do accept reception reports using remote SDRs, provided both your own physical location and the location of the SDR are included. EQSLs only for either. We do NOT archive for later listening – be there or be square.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
