Program 276 will be transmitted this weekend (20-25 October) and repeated the following weekend (27 October-1 November). While WRMI has made good progress restoring its antennas and feedlines since Hurricane Ian, key WRMI frequencies used for Shortwave Radiogram are still… Leer más ›

Hello friends WRMI has restored several of its frequencies after damage to its antennas by Hurricane Ian. Unfortunately, last weekend, most of the frequencies used by Shortwave Radiogram were not among the frequencies back on the air. We will not… Leer más ›

Due to damage from Hurricane Ian, none of the WRMI transmissions of Shortwave Radiogram was broadcast last weekend. Accordingly, we will repeat last week’s program 274 this weekend, on all the WRMI and WINB times and frequencies. As I type… Leer más ›

Our thoughts are with Shortwave Radiogram listeners in the path of Hurricane Ian and its associated storms and rainfalls. We wish you minimum disruptions. WRMI in Okeechobee, Florida, experienced a power failure for several hours. Their power is restored, but… Leer más ›

I woke up from an afternoon nap to learn of the death of Queen Elizabeth. As a shortwave listener, I remember listening to her Christmas messages on shortwave (our preferred technology), and later via newer media. Events compelled me to… Leer más ›

Last week (program 268) an automation problem at WRMI Florida shifted the frequency for the 1300 UTC Friday show (August 19) from 15770 (which had classic hits instead) to 5850 kHz. Sorry for this unfortunate surprise. If this happens again,… Leer más ›

Apologies if you were tuned in Sunday, August 14, 2330 UTC, 7730 kHz, and heard other content instead of Shortwave Radiogram. It was a problem in the WRMI automation system that WRMI is still trying to determine. Listeners were also… Leer más ›

It has been a noisy week here at the Elliott house. I’m not referring to RF noise. The chimney company was here to drill out the terra-cotta liners dating to 1941, when our house was built. New insulating materials were… Leer más ›

Our Chinese text last week was mostly successful. It decoded in places such as Russia, Australia and Brazil. Everywhere, it seems, except China. Shortwave Radiogram does not have, at present, a transmitter in a location that can routinely reach China. A… Leer más ›

Last weekend I attended the annual meeting of the National Association of Shortwave Broadcasters (NASB). Even though NASB is an organization of private U.S. shortwave stations, the meeting was held at the headquarters of Radio Free Asia, a U.S. government… Leer más ›

Unrelated to Shortwave Radiogram, we had  some excitement the early morning of June 14. About 3:00 am, I heard a commotion in the house. It involved our cat Ollie. He was chasing a moth, I assumed. Gazing into the darkness:… Leer más ›

Due to family activities (again), Shortwave Radiogram program 257 will be broadcast 26-31 May 2022 and repeated 2-7 June. Because of the complexity of uploading the programs to WINB and WRMI, the easiest solution in these situations to repeat a show from… Leer más ›

This weekend, we in the northeast USA will get our first taste of hot weather. Temperatures will be in the mid-90s F, or about 35C. We will quickly find out if our air conditioning keeps the radios and PCs cool… Leer más ›

We return to a new, non-repeat show this weekend. Thanks to Mitch @Plano26 and Al @WD4AH_Al for monitoring the @SWRadiogram Twitter account last weekend. A video of Shortwave Radiogram, program 254, is provided by Scott in Ontario (29 April, 1300 UTC). The… Leer más ›
