CQ Amateur Radio

THE LISTENING POST

World Music Radio (WMR) in Randers, Denmark has put its 200-watt transmitter on 15805 kHz Saturdays and Sundays from 0700-2000 UTC. With the change in frequency, SWLs will have at least some chance to put that station in the log. Those who enjoy playing extreme games of chance can also try listening in to 5840 kHz, which uses 100 watts, 24 hours a day. Radio Denmark, off the air since 2003 and even then only via Norway, is still much missed, as is the delightful voice program.
