Last weekend’s test of MT63-2000L was successful for those of you who had fair-to-good reception. If your reception was more challenging, MT63-2000L probably did not decode correctly, whereas the MFSK32 did.

This weekend we return to an all-MFSK32 show (except for the bonus mode). It will be unusual in that two of the three items will be press releases: one from Human Rights Watch and one from BBC World Service Group.

Here is the lineup for VOA Radiogram, program 112, all in MFSK32 except where noted:

  1:35  Program preview
  2:42  Media freedom in Turkey*
10:04  Confiscation of satellite dishes in Turkmenistan*
17:33  BBC releases new global audience numbers*
27:17  Closing announcements
28:41  PSKR125: Bonus mode of the week

VOA Radiogram transmission schedule
(all days and times UTC):
Sat 0930-1000 5745 kHz
Sat 1600-1630 17870 kHz
Sun 0230-0300 5745 kHz
Sun 1930-2000 15670 kHz
All via the Edward R. Murrow transmitting station in North Carolina.

The Mighty KBC  will transmit a minute of MFSK64 UTC Sunday one hour later than usual, at 0230 UTC, on 9925 kHz, via Germany (Saturday 10:30 pm EDT). This means that MFSK64 will be at the same time as the beginning of VOA Radiogram UTC Sunday at 0230. You could decode KBC’s MFSK64 on 9925 kHz, then quickly retune to 5745 kHz. Or use two radios, perhaps with a recorder on one of them. This KBC MFSK64 schedule change is temporary. It will return to 0130 UTC in a few weeks.
