Iranian government broadcaster’s new online streaming page

Iran’s broadcasting monopoly IRIB has recently installed a slick new interface for accessing its radio and TV live online streams. These have long been available but what’s new is that now they can all be accessed via a single page at http://live.irib.ir, with buttons on the top right-hand corner of the page giving options for radio or TV streams categorised into national (Radios Iran, Farhang, Javan etc), provincial and external services. The embedded player works very smoothly – life has just become a little easier for mediumwave dxers trying to pin down which of IRIB’s many MW transmitters they’re listening to!

WRTH update A18

We are pleased to announce that the Summer (A18) broadcasting schedules file is now ready for free download. This file is in PDF format (you will need a program that is capable of reading the PDF format, such as the free Adobe Acrobat Reader, etc.). Please visit http://www.wrth.com and follow the links for ‘updates’. The file is called: WRTH2018IntRadioSuppl2_A18Schedules.pdf
The A18 schedules file contains the broadcasting schedules of over 200 International and Clandestine/target broadcasters; International LW/MW/SW transmitter sites table; International DRM broadcasts; Selected language broadcasts; a ‘by frequency’ table of every frequency used by each station in the main schedule section.
We hope this file will be not only be a useful companion to the printed WRTH, but will also prove indispensable as a standalone source of information.
Best wishes and happy listening/DXing
WRTH (World Radio TV Handbook) Editorial team.
