Boxer shorts

Well, BOXing Day SHORT wave logs anyway ...

Focus International heard on 6285 from 13:45
Jingle heard used same 'backing music' as Voice Of Peace jingle.
Xmas music heard, including as heavy metal Xmas song.

Weekend Music Radio from Scotland heard on 6400 from 13:50

Radio Merlin International on 6305 heard from 14:15 with Xmas music. Much fading.

Heard on 6210 from 14:05, possibly earlier, weak and fading signal, thought to be Radio Marabu.
Speech in German, but announcement in English as "Europe's biggest alternative music station".
A version of Auld Lang Syne played.


Feels good to be listening to the short waves for a change. I must do this more often!

Logging around the Xmas tree

Checking out my shortwave radio earlier this afternoon, a number of shortwave stations were heard.
Only 2 were identified, tho.

From 2:30 to about 2:45, on 6300, a Dutch sounding pirate called Radio Luxemburg was heard. Ironically, the jingle used was "Radio Luxembourg, Great Britain" lol

Then from 3:30 to after 4:00, Radio Mistletoe was heard on 6245 kHz. Mostly Xmas music, also a brief history of the Xmas tree.
