Radio Joystick
Radio Joystick is presenting the monthly programme on 9290 kHz. Excellent reception at 0900 utc as usual. From January 2009 the station will switch over to the Italian Radio Relay Service (IRRS) and use 9510 kHz every 1st weekend of the month according to the Radio Joystick website. This is because the Ulbroka relay station might not be available after the end of the year. The operators of the 9290 relay service have not given official confirmation yet but keeping a big transmitter for just 1 or 2 hours per week must cost quite some money.
