Schedule Modification.
Good Evening dear listeners, due to interference with some stations
(Radio Farda and China Radio International)
we had to change our frequencies for this B-26 Winter Season !
Also effective for Birthday Marathon.

- 9670 kHz programs are moved to avoid any jamming by China Radio
  International (I consider jamming a program broadcasted in loop and who
  took lot of frequencies on the SW band)

- 7520 kHz is used by USAGM Radio Farda, we are back to 7425 kHz 
  (Saturdays will be shared with The Mighty KBC).

[IMPORTANT QUESTION] - Did someone know the prices and how to Book the
Viesintos {1386 kHz} Mediumwave Transmitter in Lithuania ?

Yes I can hear Country Radio on 954 kHz currently (1620 UT Oct 22), there
is a window of opportunity from about 1600-1700 UT when there is a partial
darkness path between the UK and Czech Republic but before sunset in Spain
by when 'Onda Cero' dominates the channel.

My notes on the changes:
We lose two frequencies for the 0900 hour - 15300 and 17660 kHz.
No more 21 MHz transmissions during U.S. afternoons, 1700-2000 UT.

There is a new hour of Shortwave in French listed at 2200 UT,
on 9565 kHz and 13740 kHz {both DRM audio digital mode in hfcc.org file,
ed.}, but the listing is italicized with no explanation.

We lose 11995 kHz,which was the best hope of North American reception from
2000-2200 UT. It's replaced by 11700 kHz during the first hour (20 UT) and
by 7360 kHz during the second hour (21 UT).

Fulfulde language drops from 4 half-hour broadcasts to two (at 0730 UT and
1730 UT).

GERMANY   Bericht zum Besuch von Europe 1 am 17. Oktober 2026.

Hallo liebe Hobbyfreunde,
gerne moechte ich mit euch meine Zeilen zum Besuch von Europe 1 teilen.

Zeitreise in die Kathedrale der Wellen: Besuch des ehemaligen Langwellen-
senders Europe 1 in Ueberherrn, Saarland, Germany, EU.

Am 17. Oktober 2026 hatte ich ab 11 Uhr die Gelegenheit, den ehemaligen
Langwellensender Europe 1 in Felsberg-Berus (Gemeinde Ueberherrn) zu be-
suchen. Solche Besichtigungen sind selten, denn das Gelaende ist normaler-
weise nicht oeffentlich zugaenglich. Entsprechend gross war die Vorfreude.

Bekannte Gesichter und eine kompetente Fuehrung.
Wie oft bei solchen Anlaessen traf ich auch diesmal wieder Hobbyfreunde.
Darunter war Conny, der Moderator von 'Radio DARC', den viele kennen. Auch
der technische Redakteur Klaus Spielvogel und Christof Proft, Medienrefe#
rent des ADDX e.V., waren dabei. Wer im Amateurfunk und im Radiohobby un-
terwegs ist, weiss, wie schoen es ist, sich bei einem solchen Termin
wiederzusehen.

Die Fuehrung uebernahm Eugen Duepre, DK8VR, DARC Distriktvorsitzender Saar
und seit vielen Jahren intensiv mit der Geschichte und Entwicklung des
Senders Europe 1 befasst. Etwa 30 Teilnehmer folgten ihm durch die Anlage.
Dabei entdeckten wir viele besondere Ecken, die man bei einem normalen
Rundgang leicht uebersehen wuerde. Es war eine Zeitreise durch die Ge-
schichte von Europe 1, vom Bau bis zur Stilllegung.

Ein Sender mit besonderer Geschichte.
Europe 1 wurde waehrend der franzoesischen Verwaltung des Saarlandes ge-
gruendet. Der Sender entstand, um das damalige Verbot des kommerziellen
Rundfunks in Frankreich zu umgehen. Rund um Frankreich entstanden die so-
genannten "radios peripheriques", in kleinen Laendern wie Monaco, Andorra
und Luxemburg oder, wie bei Europe 1, im teilautonomen Saarland. Das
franzoesischsprachige Programm erreichte ueber zehn Millionen Hoerer, weit
ueber die Grenzen Frankreichs hinaus.

Die Studios lagen von Anfang an in Paris. Das Signal lief ueber zwei von-
einander unabhaengige Zuspielleitungen ins Saarland. In Berus gab es nur
ein Notstudio mit einem Sprecherplatz, zwei Bandmaschinen und zwei Plat-
tenspielern. Rundfunk wurde dort nie "gemacht", sondern ausschliesslich
ausgestrahlt.

Die Sendehalle: Architektur als Weltklasse.
Die Sendehalle entstand nur rund 700 Meter von der franzoesischen Grenze
entfernt. Die Architekten Jean-Francois Guedy und Bernard Lafaille ent-
warfen sie in Form einer Jakobsmuschel. Sie war der weltweit erste Gross-
bau mit einem aus Beton gegossenen Dach (86 × 46 m, bis zu 16 m hoch).

Die Betondecke ist dabei nur 4 bis 7 Zentimeter dick und wird von
Stahlseilen so unter Spannung gehalten, dass sie wie ein Zelt "steht".
Waehrend der ersten Bauphase verformte sich der oberste Ringanker unter
der Last, und es entstanden Risse. Der Ingenieur Eugene Freyssinet ueber-
arbeitete die Konstruktion von Grund auf und rettete den Bau.Er wurde im
Jahr 1955 vollendet.

Die Halle bietet rund 2700qm Bodenflaeche. Seit 1999 steht die gesamte An-
lage unter Denkmalschutz, und am 24. September 2021 wurde die Halle in die
Reihe der historischen Wahrzeichen der Ingenieurbaukunst in Deutschland
aufgenommen.

Technik der Superlative.
Der Langwellensender nahm am 1. Januar 1955 den Betrieb auf, zunaechst mit
2 × 200 kW.
Die Sender stammten von der Compagnie Francaise Thomson-Houston.
1964 stieg die Leistung auf 700 kW.

1976 kamen neue Sender mit Keramikroehren hinzu, die 2000kW (2 MW) liefer-
ten. Damit war Europe 1 zeitweise der leistungsstaerkste Langwellensender
der Welt. Der Sender war sogar fuer 3000 kW ausgelegt.

Einige Zahlen zeigen die Dimensionen:
- *Frequenz:* Nach mehreren Ausweichversuchen in den Anfangsjahren
sendete Europe 1 zuletzt auf 183 kHz.

{comment: frequenztechnisch mit der ITU Geneve wurde der Sender von der
DBP Darmstadt gegenueber der GDR-Frequenzbehoerde Berlin Adlershof in den
waehrend 3 Jahrzehnten verhandelten diversen Frequenz-Abstimmungen - im
Bereich 177 bis 185 kHz vertreten, zuletzt mit 6 kHz Kanalabstand im GE75
Frequenzplan LF_part der ITU auf Saarlouis 183 kHz und Zehlendorf Oranien-
burg GDR 177 kHz, vom 1. Februar 1986.

- *Abwaerme* Sie wurde ueber Waermetauscher genutzt, um den gesamten
Gebaeudekomplex zu beheizen.

- *Stromversorgung* Sie erfolgte aus zwei unabhaengigen Einspeisungen
(2 × 35kV) von unterschiedlichen Kraftwerken. Der jaehrliche Verbrauch lag
bei rund 15 Millionen kWh.

- *Antennen* Zuletzt bildeten vier Masten mit einer Hoehe von rund
270 bis 282 Metern eine Richtantenne mit der Hauptstrahlrichtung Suedwest,
also nach Frankreich. Zwei weitere Masten dienten als Reserveantenne.

- *Erdungssystem* Das elektrische Gegengewicht bestand aus Kupferdraht mit
einer Gesamtlaenge von rund 290 km.

Bemerkenswert ist auch die Redundanz. In allen Bereichen war die Anlage so
ausgelegt,dass Ausfaelle moeglichst kurz blieben. Die Toleranz lag bei nur
rund 10 Sekunden Sendeunterbrechung.

Das Ende des Sendebetriebs.
Am 31. Dez. 2019 um 23:28 hr / CET endete nach 65 Jahren der Sendebetrieb.
Es war der letzte der einst fuenf Langwellen-Rundfunksender in Deutschland

Hohe Energiekosten und geringe Wirtschaftlichkeit duerften eine Rolle ge-
spielt haben. Die Sendemasten wurden im Oktober 2020 gesprengt und ver-
schrottet. Das Programm von Europe 1 ist weiterhin ueber UKW und per Live-
stream zu hoeren.

Gluecklicherweise blieb die sendetechnische Ausstattung der Halle erhal-
ten, und genau diese konnten wir bei der Fuehrung bestaunen. Seit dem
1. August 2016 gehoeren die Halle und 23 Hektar Areal der Gemeinde Ueber-
herrn.

Weiterfuehrende Eindruecke:
Wer sich einen Eindruck von der Atmosphaere vor Ort verschaffen moechte,
findet ihn in diesem YouTube-Video:

Die Bilder vermitteln gut, wie imposant die Dimensionen der Anlage sind.

Einen fundierten Einblick in Geschichte und Technik gibt ausserdem der
Artikel von Eugen Duepre, DK8VR, in der DARC CQ-DL 11/2022
("Die Kathedrale der Wellen: Das Sendezentrum Europe 1").
Er ist hier als PDF verfuegbar:

1_CQDL_2022-11_S52ff_DK8VR.PDF>

Das Diplom Europe 1.
Funkamateure koennen sich ausserdem das "Diplom Langwellensender Europe 1
Denkmal" erarbeiten. Dafuer sind 50 Punkte noetig, auf allen Baendern und
in allen Betriebsarten. Punkte gibt es zum Beispiel fuer QSOs mit Mitglie-
dern des OV Q16, mit dem Sonder-DOK DVQ oder mit DF0AP. QSOs aus dem Di-
strikt Q (Z19) zaehlen ebenfalls,in CW und ab 70 cm aufwaerts sogar mit 10
Punkten. Gewertet werden QSOs ab 2016, dem Jahr, in dem die Anlage an die
Gemeinde ging. Das Diplom wird ueber das DCL-Portal beantragt.Alle Details
stehen hier:

Mein Fazit und ein Wunsch.
Der Besuch hat mich beeindruckt. Die Verbindung aus mutiger Architektur,
Ingenieurskunst und Rundfunkgeschichte macht die Sendehalle in Berus zu
einem wirklich einmaligen Denkmal. Mein Dank gilt Eugen, DK8VR, fuer die
engagierte und kenntnisreiche Fuehrung, und allen, die diesen Tag orga-
nisiert haben.

Ich hoffe sehr, dass dieses historische Gebaeude auch weiterhin der Oef-
fentlichkeit erhalten bleibt, fuer tolle und verbindende Veranstaltungen,
bei denen Funkamateure, Technikbegeisterte und Geschichtsinteressierte
zusammenkommen. Orte wie dieser zeigen, wie viel Faszination in Technik
und Rundfunkgeschichte steckt, und sie sollten auch kuenftigen Generatio-
nen offenstehen.

73 und bis zum naechsten Mal!

JAPAN   11920 kHz  Oct 25 at 14.00 & 14.17 UT, JBA carrier, possibly NHK's
only token English broadcast as now scheduled for B26 season, while simul
Japanese remains on 11815 kHz, JBA S4/S5. 11920 kHz supposed to replace
11800 where now there is nothing.

The two have always displayed unmatching strength despite both 300kW, both
208 antennas, and only 5 degrees apart, 240degr on 11920 kHz, 235 degr on
11815 kHz !  But there ought to be more signal now on 11920 kHz if it's
really there. Nothing else is scheduled.

BTW, Myanmarianese is supposed to follow on 11920 kHz at 14.30-15.00 UT.

Es gibt ja auch ein entsprechendes Formular fuer TWR Europe ... die Frage
ist nun, welches man nutzen sollte. Die Sendesprache konnte ich leider
nicht genau identifizieren, das Intervall-Signal zur vollen Stunde war je-
doch eindeutig.

Although TWR (Trans World Radio) has been broadcasting in the region on
shortwave radio for some time now, PANI's new AM transmitter will expand
our impact dramatically with 500,000 watts of power—10 times the wattage
of the most powerful AM transmitters permitted in the United States.

SPAMMY PANI Transmitter is Going Live !

Date: Tue, 24 Sep 2013 - From: TWR President, Lauren Libby.

I'm thrilled to announce an exciting breakthrough for the gospel in one of
the most spiritually unreached areas of our world !

Because of friends like you who share our mission, TWR just completed the
construction of a powerful new AM transmitter that will broadcast to a
potential listening audience of more than 200million people. Many of these
are living in places where there are no churches ... no Christians ... and
no missionaries allowed.

This is the PANI project. And while "PANI" is an acronym for the broadcast
area of Pakistan, Afghanistan, and northern India, it is also the Hindi
word for "water". Through PANI, together we will bring the living water of
the gospel to one of the most spiritually dark, hard-to-reach areas of our
world.

Please click here to watch a brief video about our anticipated launch date
of PANI, and how you can help us provide programming that will be aired
across the PANI region over the next year.

Together, we can bring Jesus Christ, the Living Pani, to many who might
otherwise never hear of Him!

Sincerely in Christ,
Lauren Libby,
TWR President

In many parts of Pakistan, Afghanistan, and northern India (PANI), the
people have never seen a church or met a Christian.

And especially in Pakistan and Afghanistan,Christianity has become synony-
mous in the people's minds withAmerica's political agenda. Although deeply
religious and earnest seekers after God, the people in this region have no
understanding at all of who Jesus Christ is and what it means to follow
Him.

But millions of people in this region, particularly in rural areas,already
naturally turn to their radios for news, instruction, and entertainment.
It is a simple, non-threatening way to introduce people to a biblical
worldview and to the Prince of Peace. And radio waves can reach into whole
villages where human missionaries would be not only unwelcome, but actual-
ly in danger.

Although TWR (Trans World Radio) has been broadcasting in the region on
shortwave radio for some time now, PANI's new AM transmitter will expand
our impact dramatically with 500,000 watts of power—10 times the wattage
of the most powerful AM transmitters permitted in the United States.

With the new transmitter,TWR will also expand the time we can spend broad-
casting the Good News in the region's six key languages: Punjabi, Pashto,
Sindhi, Urdu, Farsi, and Dari.

The PANI project has been in motion since 2011, and thanks to the generous
support of many caring friends like you, it's time to begin broadcasting.
But we need your help to "go LIVE" with the gospel!

Will you help us raise the $200,000 needed to fund programming across the
PANI region over the next year, giving more than 200 million people the
opportunity to hear and respond to the gospel ? For most of PANI's listen-
ing area, these broadcasts could be the only opportunity countless men,
women, and children ever have to hear the message of salvation and new
life. So please, give today.

MONGOLIA   'Voice of Mongolia' shortwave transmissions have been off the
air for a couple of weeks due to a problem at the transmitter site, but
they hope to fix it soon.
(Mauno Ritola-FIN on WRTH F_Book page, 31 Aug)

"On the 20th [Oct 2026], the Japanese broadcast of 'Voice of Mongolia'
headlined its news program and reported,'Shortwave broadcasts of the Voice
of Mongolia have been suspended since August 17, 2026, due to technical
issues'. Stories from executives of the broadcasting station's technical
department were also introduced, but it appears that it will take consi-
derable time before resumption.

Details of the coverage can be heard in the following audio file.

Speaker 1:  Mongolianbukhooradio, Yerchuan.

This is the Voice of Mongolia. This Japanese station broadcasts twice
daily. The first program runs for 30 minutes on frequency 12085 kHz from
7:30 PM to 8:00 PM {10.30-11.00 UT}, and the second program runs for
30 minutes on frequency 12015 kHz from 10:00 PM to 10:30 PM {13.00-
13.30 UT}.

Good afternoon, dear listeners, how are you? This is Otogerel. Today is
Tuesday, October 20th, and the weather in Ulaanbaatar is sunny with a low
of -14 degrees Celsius and a high of 0 degrees Celsius temperature.
A northeast wind was blowing at 7 meters per second, and the humidity was
36%.

We'll start today with the news, followed by a report on the Dolignarus
ruins. Enjoy the music between programs. Now for the news. Here are the
main points:
Shortwave radio broadcasting is currently suspended due to technical pro-
blems. The official inauguration ceremony for the first term of the Mon-
golian-Japanese language partners took place.

These are the key points: Mongolia's state radio and television broad-
caster, "Voice of Mongolia," was founded in 1964. To introduce Mongolia
to the world, it produced radio programs in foreign languages and broad-
cast them daily via shortwave and the internet.

However, shortwave broadcasting has been suspended since August 17, 2026,
due to technical problems. We spoke with Prevnyam, the director of the
state radio and television network, about when shortwave broadcasting will
resume. Director Prevnyam explained that the Khonkhoro radio station in
Ulaanbaatar has a high-power transmitter. This transmitter was used to
broadcast Mongolian radio programs in four languages across East Asia.
It has been in operation since 1984. These high-power transmitters use
vacuum tubes, which, however, have become damaged and unusable, leading
to a malfunction of the transmitter. As a result, the station has been
out of service since August 17 of this year. Since the shortwave trans-
missions ceased, we have informed the relevant central authority, the
Ministry of Digital Development, Innovation and Communications. We have
already submitted three to four requests and are currently awaiting
a response. Our primary request is for the immediate allocation of funds
for the purchase of vacuum tubes. The investigations and preparations for
the urgent procurement of vacuum tubes from the Russian Federation are
complete, and we are ready to place an order.

However, due to budget constraints, the ordering and procurement proce-
dures have been temporarily suspended. The typical lifespan of vacuum
tubes in high-power transmitters is 6,000 to 7,000 hours. However, the
current vacuum tubes have already accumulated more than 45,000 operating
hours, exceeding their expected lifespan by six to seven times. Regarding
the transmitter, we are continuing to carry out repairs and inspections
of the feed lines, tower equipment, and the transmitter equipment itself.

The current problem, however, stems from the failure of the vacuum tubes,
which are key components for power generation and transmission. We have
therefore included a plan to modernize these high-power transmitters by
2027 in the National Disaster Management Council's work plan. All techni-
cal and economic feasibility studies, as well as the budget calculations,
have been completed, and we are currently awaiting approval. Given the ap-
proaching end of the year, we anticipate that budget issues and other fac-
tors could influence the response from both sides.As previously mentioned,
since the shortwave transmission ceased on the 17th of this month {August
2026}, we have sent three to four written inquiries to the relevant orga-
nizations and are currently awaiting a response.

RADIOCOM is a leading broadcasting provider in the Romanian market and a
major supplier of electronic communication services. The company is owned
by the Romanian state.

The state-owned radiocommunications company SNR is investigating a cyber-
security incident that was detected today, October 19, 2026, at 06:30 LT.
Initial findings suggest it is a ransomware attack.Company representatives
stated on Monday that the incident was reported via the national platform
for cybersecurity incident reporting(PNRISC), and a team from the National
Cybersecurity Directorate (DNSC) is currently on-site at the company’s
headquarters to conduct an investigation.

They indicated that immediate measures have been taken to contain the in-
cident.

"Based on the reviews conducted so far, the impact appears to be concen-
trated within the company's internal network. As a precautionary measure,
the email service has been suspended while the investigation is underway".

"The services offered to our customers continue to function, and so far,
we have seen no signs that they have been compromised. We are constantly
monitoring the situation", added the officials at Radiocom.

They stated that they are currently assessing which data may have been af-
fected and will notify the individuals and institutions concerned in ac-
cordance with legal requirements.

"SNR will inform the relevant authorities, including DIICOT", the company
explained.

The National Cybersecurity Directorate (DNSC) also announces that it has
been notified —via the National Platform for Reporting Cybersecurity Inci-
dents (PNRISC) — of a cybersecurity incident detected on October 19, 2026,
at the National Radiocommunications Company SA (SNR).

"According to initial assessments, the services provided to customers re-
main operational; there are no signs that they have been compromised.
A DNSC team is currently on-site at the company's headquarters to investi-
gate the incident and evaluate its impact", the DNSC stated.

* The attack on ANCPI over the summer brought the real estate market to a
standstill for a month. *

In mid-July, the infrastructure of the National Agency for Cadastre and
Land Registration (ANCPI) was crippled by a cyberattack, bringing the
Romanian real estate market to a near-standstill for nearly a month.

By July 14, all of the ANCPI’s IT systems had ceased to function. The in-
stitution’s email accounts, as well as "e-Terra"—the application used for
cadastre and land registry records—were also rendered inaccessible.

A report on the incident by the DNSC (National Cybersecurity Directorate)
reveals that the attackers exploited a vulnerability in the OpenAM au-
thentication system—a flaw that had been known since 2021.

An investigation by *HotNews* found that the attack on the ANCPI was fore-
seeable, given that thousands of passwords belonging to notaries, lawyers,
engineers, and public officials were exposed online.

Just last week, a cyberattack on the central depository of the Bucharest
Stock Exchange was announced. The incident resulted in the exposure of a
significant amount of data, ranging from shareholders' personal identifi-
cation numbers (CNP) to their IBANs (bank account details).

RUSSIA   OTHR new building in Tapiau Gwardeisk/Gvardeysk, Kaliningrad area

In its exclave of Kaliningrad, Russia is building a massive OTHR radar
system consisting of antenna arrays, each more than 500 meters in length.
The facility is located east of Gvardeysk (German: Tapiau) village.

...  is located just about 30 kilometers from Poland and approximately
65 kilometers from Lithuania, and it could potentially monitor large parts
of Europe. This is reported by the "FAZ" German newspaper, citing an ana-
lysis of satellite imagery.

The images show three rows of antenna masts arranged in a star-like pat-
tern. They evidently belong to an over-the-horizon radar system. Such
systems operate using radio waves that are reflected off the upper atmo-
sphere, allowing them to detect objects well beyond the normal line of
sight.

New radar near Gvardeysk has a long reach into Europe.

According to the report, ranges of 900 to 3,000 kilometers are possible.
This would bring not only Poland and Germany, but also France and Great
Britain, within its detection range.

The new facility is being built on a fenced-off site near Gvardeysk, in
the heart of the Russian exclave. The antenna arms are approximately
500 meters long each. A radar of this size could detect aircraft, cruise
missiles, ballistic missiles, and warships.

The British newspaper 'The Times' writes that the system could "easily
cover Great Britain and the rest of Europe's northern and western peri-
phery."

Kaliningrad is becoming increasingly important to Moscow from a mili-
tary perspective.

For years, Kaliningrad has been considered one of the most sensitive
points along NATO's eastern flank. Located in or near the former German
city of Koenigsberg are:

- the headquarters of the Russian Baltic Fleet
- numerous air defense systems
- missile units, including nuclear-capable Iskander systems

From this position,Russia could, in a contingency, block the Suwalki Gap —
a narrow strip of land between Poland and Lithuania that connects the
Baltic NATO states to the rest of the alliance.

Electronic warfare facilities in Kaliningrad.
According to the "FAZ," there are already more than 20 facilities for sig-
nals intelligence and electronic warfare in Kaliningrad. Furthermore, a
large circular antenna array can be seen near Chernyakhovsk. Such systems
are capable of:

- Intercepting satellite communications
- Tracking aerial movements
- Detecting missile launches
- Jamming radio signals

For years, Russian transmitters in the region have also been interfering
with GPSsignals. Lithuanian authorities estimate that Russia has installed
at least 36 antennas there for the purpose of "spoofing" — a process that
falsifies navigation data. This creates difficulties for maritime traffic
and civil aviation in northeastern Europe.

Satellite imagery reveals additional military installations in the Baltic
Sea region.
The images show further developments. In Chkalovsk, hardened shelters for
combat aircraft have been constructed, designed to better protect the
planes against drone attacks. In Baltiysk, an S-400 battery — with its
launch ramps raised—appeared to be in an operational state.

Kaliningrad is strategically important to Russia, not least due to its
location on the Baltic Sea; a portion of Russia's oil exports is trans-
ported via these waters. Much of Russia's maritime traffic can now be
tracked using radar satellites — even when vessels switch off their
transponders.

This military buildup is not limited to Kaliningrad. In Karelia, along
the border with Finland, new barracks, storage facilities, and training
grounds are being established. Construction is also underway in the
Leningrad Military District. Furthermore, satellite analysis suggests that
a large ammunition complex is being developed at a former Soviet base near
Slutsk, in Belarus.

Russia is constructing a massive radar facility near Gvardeysk in the
Kaliningrad Oblast. Previously unpublished satellite imagery from the
Finnish company Iceye reveals three antenna arrays, each exceeding 500
meters in length.

These arrays converge in a star-like pattern, and the site is enclosed by
a double perimeter fence. Together with other components, these antennas
form an over-the-horizon (OTH) radar system capable of detecting aircraft
and missiles at a range of approximately 900 to 3,000 kilometers — a cove-
rage area that includes countries such as Germany, France, and the United
Kingdom.

Kaliningrad plays a critically important military role for Russia; from
this location, it can threaten the land connection between Poland and the
Baltic states (the Suwalki Gap). Furthermore, the region hosts missile and
air defense systems and serves as the base for the Baltic Fleet. According
to Iceye, Kaliningrad's significance to Russia is also growing as a hub
for sensor technology and electronic warfare — specifically in the areas
of reconnaissance and the jamming of electronic signals.

Accordingly, there are more than 20 such locations in the Kaliningrad
region.

Additional sites are being added, such as an over-the-horizon (OTH) radar
currently under construction and a large, circular antenna array near
Chernyakhovsk:

"Together, they provide Russia with a multitude of capabilities for moni-
toring activities throughout the entire region — ranging from the inter-
ception of satellite communications to the detection of aircraft movements
and ballistic missiles", states a previously unpublished report by Iceye
on security policy developments in the BalticSea region, excerpts of which
have been made available to the F.A.Z. [...]

SLOVAK REPUBLIC   Information posted on the Spanish-language webpage of
RSI Bratislava (and in other languages, but not in English).

As of November 2, 2026, there will be only two journalists per editorial
team, down from the current five. As of the October 25 French - language
RSI listener Mailbag show, however, no one knew who would be keeping their
job. The programming is also set to change, but here again, the journa-
lists do not know what the new shows will contain. It should also be noted
(see email below) that terrestrial radio broadcasting will be discontinued
(RSI in French language).

<https://esrsi.stvr.sk/clanky/tema-del-dia/464588/la-stvr-modificara-el-
funcionamiento-de-radio-slovakia-international-a-partir-de-noviembre>

Starting November 1, Slovak Television and Radio (STVR) will modify the
operations of Radio Slovakia International (RSI). The organization intends
to place greater emphasis on digital platforms, streamline editorial ope-
rations, and reduce signal broadcasting costs.

These changes are expected to result in annual savings of half a million
Euros in public funds,according to Ivana Zecevic, head of public relations
at STVR.

From 2027 onwards, STVR plans to gradually phase out its partnerships with
foreign broadcasters; the final contract is set to expire in May 2027. RSI
will continue to broadcast via the Astra 3C satellite (Skylink), shared FM
stations, the T-DAB+ network, online streaming, and podcast platforms.

The digital platform "Audio STVR" will also play an increasingly signifi-
cant role. "We anticipate that the optimization of processes and the
changes at RSI will lead to annual savings of half a million euros in pub-
lic funds. This will allow us to utilize public resources more effectively
while simultaneously developing Radio Slovakia International within the
digital landscape," stated Martina Flasikova, Director General of STVR.

According to Flasikova,the objective is to preserve the broadcaster's lin-
guistic diversity and international focus, as well as to maintain a con-
nection with Slovaks living abroad. RSI will continue its broadcasts in
six languages: English, French, German, Russian, Slovak, and Spanish. Each
language-specific editorial team will produce a daily 30minute programming
block featuring current news, supplemented by in-depth feature reports and
music.

The programming lineup will combine daily and weekly formats, with weekend
shows remaining part of the schedule. A new development will be a collabo-
ration with Radio Regina, which will facilitate the creation of content
specifically tailored for Slovaks living abroad.Furthermore, collaboration
with the STVR Information Section will be expanded, with that section also
providing news content to RSI.

These changes will also affect the organization of the newsroom and work
processes. STVR justifies these adjustments by citing technological deve-
lopments and the changing habits of listeners.

USA   WWCR: I have not heard it yet, but several WOR iog monitors heard it
on a surprise new frequency, 6090kHz, UT Oct 27. WWCR has been registering
this and another ex-Caribbean Beacon, Anguilla frequency, 11775 kHz for
years and years in HFCC, as imaginary / alternatives and are still in
HFCC B26 request database.

Own program sked shows it replaces 5890 kHz on WWCR-4, which has a very
limited sked of 00-04 UT Tue-Sat only, including the detestable dead
gospel huxter Tony Alamo during the final hour. This also means no more
leapfrog mixing products with 5935 kHz landing on 5980 kHz. Instead, if
that still happen, would land on 6245 kHz or maybe 5780 kHz - keep an ear
on those.

During the rest of DST until Nov 1, 6090 kHz is *available* at 23-12 UT,
then 00-13 UT. And the day frequency in between if ever needed is again
9980 kHz which has been off the air for years; rather than 11775 kHz.
(Glenn Hauser-OK-USA, hcdx & wor Oct 26-27)

6090 kHz on Oct 27 at 23.57 UT, I'm standing by for WWCR-4 new frequency
to come up, on ATS-909 direct. About 23.58.4 UT cuts on for one word and
off again. 23.59 UT two more attempts, and finally cuts on and stays dur-
ing some gospel huxter, with ID over him. Some dead air and at 00.00 UT
Oct 28 s/on and into presumed 'A Call to Decision' program as sked. Then
on Maryland remote I check for leapfrog mixing products like 5935 kHz used
to produce with abandoned 5890 kHz, a bonus onto 5980 kHz: nothing heard
on 6245 kHz, but a JBA carrier on 5780 kHz, could be something else. Into
there, fundamentals 6090 kHz and 5935 kHz are both S=9/+20dB. See my dis-
cussion of this in previous report.

USA   Scott Becker-MI-USA, ex-WBCQ. Via Chat_GPT_item

Scott Becker was once a business partner (?) with Allan Weiner (gh)

"Scott Becker was indeed a business partner of Allan Weiner in offshore
radio projects. This is confirmed by contemporary radio-industry reports".

The clearest evidence concerns the planned offshore broadcasting ship MV
Electra in the 1990s.

- Scott Becker and Allan Weiner jointly pursued the project. A 17 August
1996 Billboard article describes the two radio-piracy veterans working to-
gether to launch a broadcasting ship. It discusses their plans for off-
shore shortwave broadcasting and their efforts to obtain the necessary
authorizations.

<https://www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-All-Music/Billboard/90s/
1996/BB-1996-08-17.pdf>

- The partnership is explicitly documented. A February 1998 report in
the NASWA Journal calls it the "Allan Weiner-Scott Becker radio ship
project."

<https://naswa.net/newsite/wp-content/uploads/journal_
archive/1990-1999_Journal/1998_Journal/199802-Journal.pdf>

- Their relationship went back further. A July 1996 Radio World report
describes Becker as a former radio and television pirate who had been
friends with Weiner for years. It also reports that they had parted ways
following the earlier MV Fury episode.

<https://www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-All-BC-Engineering/Radio-
World-Modern/1996/Radio-World-1996-07-24.pdf>

What exactly was their business relationship ?
The strongest detailed source is the historical article "Ambitious, but
failed: The MV Electra", which reproduces contemporary reporting and up-
dates from the NASWA Pirate Radio Report.

MV Electra — 1996-1998.
Becker headed the project under the company name Lightwave Mission Broad-
casting. Weiner was responsible for fitting out the vessel and installing
its radio transmitters. The ship was intended to broadcast shortwave pro-
grammes from offshore locations.

MV Fury — 1993-1994.
Their earlier involvement in this radio-ship venture ended after the FCC
raid in January 1994. The contemporary Radio World report says Becker and
Weiner had parted ways after the incident.

<https://offshoreradio.info/ambitious-but-failed-the-mv-electra/>

WBCQ — 2000s and later.
Becker apparently maintained some involvement with Weiner's licensedshort-
wave station, WBCQ, after the Electra project. A 2005 magazine article
identifies him as "WBCQ's Dr. Scott Becker, KB5MDH," and reports that he
and Weiner joined the production team of This Week in Amateur Radio Inter-
national as news anchor and segment producers.

<https://www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-Popular-
Communications/00s/Popular-Communications-2005-05.pdf>

Amateur radio and technical interests.
Becker held the US amateur-radio callsign KB5MDH. A technical website,
Frank's Electron Tube Data Sheets, also lists Dr. Scott Becker as one of
its mirror hosts. This suggests an interest in radio technology beyond
broadcasting, although it does not establish a separate commercial radio
business.

<https://offshoreradio.info/another-setback-the-mv-fury-v/>

What happened after that?
A particularly useful clue comes from Glenn Hauser's World of Radio moni-
toring reports:

- 2016: Hauser reported hearing Becker calling into Weiner's WBCQ program-
me from Kiowa, Kansas, inviting business for WBCQ. He also mentioned some-
one involved in putting KPAK 97.5 FM in Alva, Oklahoma, on the air. This
documents continued radio-related activity,though it does not prove Becker
owned or operated KPAK.

<https://www.mail-archive.com/hard-core-dx%40hard-core-
dx.com/msg41461.html>

- 2022-2023: Hauser described Becker as a former Weiner partner who had
become largely absent from WBCQ's public presence. He also reported that
Becker had owned a restaurant in Kiowa.
