VoA Kreolisch fuer Haiti

die Sendungen der Voice of America für Haiti kann man als Livestream hören:

http://www.voanews.com/wm/live/live-creole-a.asx

Der Stream ist aber offenbar nur aktiv, wenn auch die Sendungen über Antenne laufen.

Im Augenblick werden laufend Telefonanrufe von Menschen durchgegeben, die sich nach dem Schicksal ihrer Angehörigen im Katastrophengebiet erkundigen.

Es dürfte sich um dasselbe Programm handeln, welches zur Zeit in Haiti über UKW und über Flugzeug verbreitet wird.

South Herts Radio

South Herts Radio will now broadcast as follows effective from 3rd Jan 2010.

Every other Sunday from Sunday 3rd January from 08.00 – 20.00 UTC. Shortwave 5835 KHz (52 meter band) with low power to Europe from the U.K.

Only when our webstream is on air can you find us on FM anywhere between 87.6 – 107.9 MHz throughout the U.K. and Europe and on dedicated relays usually 90.9 MHz in South & East Herts, 97.9 MHz in West Herts and 102.5 MHz in North Herts thanks to our listeners relaying our webstreams on legitimate low power devices.

We also operate on (WFM) 863.5 MHz in South Herts and 864.5 MHz in North Herts at a higher power of sometimes up to 50 watts.

Weekdays Mon – Fri from Jan 4th we will be on (shortwave only) with low power on 3935 KHz (76 meter band) from 19.00 – 22.00 UTC. We are also testing 7325 KHz in the 41 meter band with low power, times and days vary. When we say low power we mean just above micro power but effective when conditions are on our side.

We are also testing on the AM band in the medium wave band in parts of the U.K. again thanks to some of our listeners relaying us on low power devices. Example tx
http://www.vcomp.co.uk/spitfire/spitfire.htm any frequency that is clear in steps of 9 Khz.

Finally we are relayed by other stations (usually clandestine) at various times and frequencies see http://www.southhertsradio.com/frequencies.html for more info.

Once again the live webstream should be on air every other Sunday with (limited slots) but we do offer an excellent listen again service and downloads which we will be expanding on a much greater scale in 2010. Look out for changes to our website and schedules soon. We may miss the odd Sunday but this is only a hobby station.

SHR is for the serious DXer and offshore radio enthusiast with DX related shows and pirate tributes mostly as listen on demand files. Reception reports are always welcome.

In the New Year I will be devoting more time to making new shows for Laser Hot Hits. You can hear some of my previous shows for Laser on the Humyo player at http://www.southhertsradio.com/again.html

Happy new year and 73.

for languages, click on an hour for tx in that hour & language
(here you can fetch CSV data for (Open)Office if you click the language for the complete list))

for stations, click on an hour for tx in that hour & from that station
(here you can fetch CSV data for (Open)Office if you click the station for the complete list))

Use of the (previous and) following list: It’s 3 PM, where’s VOA now?? Where can I hear Spanish at 19 UT??
http://users.fulladsl.be/~spb13810/radio/timelist/
complete hourly lists of sw tx (with crosslinks to language/ station)

The source for this data is Eibi.

I put Aoki here;:
http://users.fulladsl.be/~spb13810/radio/swlistaoki/ for languages
http://users.fulladsl.be/~spb13810/radio/txlistaoki/ for stations
Space limits made me decide to drop hourly lists for Aoki.

There are more than 700 stations, more than 300 languages, that makes about 24 hours x ( 300 + 700) = 24000 files on the site.

I also made a comparison of the 2 sources: aoki and eibi: (frequency order) http://users.fulladsl.be/~spb13810/radio/indexsrc.htm

(I think about integrating HFCC data too)
PS: these are shortcuts:

(I hope I manage to do complete uploads in the future, I try to automate the complete process of Aoki/Eibi donwload up to the upload)
