Hello friends,

The change to Daylight Savings Time in North America is now complete. WINB’s program schedule stays with Eastern Time. The UTC times for Shortwave Radiogram on 9265 kHz are now one hour earlier, but the same by local time in most of North America.

Our transmission Saturday at 2300-2330 UTC on 9455 kHz from WRMI Florida stays the same by UTC, so it’s one hour later by local time in most of North America: 1900 EDT, 1800 CDT, 1700 MDT, 1600 PDT.

Other changes I mentioned in last week’s email. The updated schedule for spring and summer 2026 is below.

The European time change does not occur until the end of March. For now, European listeners should note the UTC time changes for WIINB on 9265 kHz and make the necessary adjustments for local time.

We had a lively snowfall this afternoon, leaving a dusting on the ground. When I woke up Thursday morning, it was 70F/21C. Within two hours the temperature dropped to 40F/4C. It was even colder by the time the snow started. Still, it was good to see snow, probably for the last time this season. It will be hot enough, soon enough.  

A video of last week’s Shortwave Radiogram (program 424) is provided by Scott in Ontario (Wednesday 1330 UTC). The audio archive is maintained by Mark in the UK. Analysis is provided by Roger in Germany. See also the IQ audio file and other resources from H0B0_Radio in Washington state. And the image archive provided by John R in California.

Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram, program 440, 12-19 March 2026, in MFSK modes as noted (and maybe also a surprise mode):

 1:40  MFSK32: Program preview 
 2:50  MFSK32: NASA spacecraft shifts asteroid’s orbit
 7:03  MFSK64: NASA IG questions Artemis lunar lander plans
