Voice Of Armenia (Interval Signal): Circa 1999
/
Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Dan Greenall, who shares the following recording and notes:
Broadcaster: The Voice of Armenia, Yerevan circa 1999
Frequency: 9.965 MHz
Reception location: Thamesford, Ontario, Canada
Receiver and antenna: Panasonic RF-3100 and longwire antenna
Notes: Here is a recording I made of the Voice of Armenia from Yerevan with their interval signal and multi-lingual ID's circa 1999. Somehow, this country managed to elude me in the 1970's and 80's.
Sudan National Broadcasting Corporation: November 1996

Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Dan Greenall, who shares the following recording and notes:
Broadcaster: Sudan National Broadcasting Corporation November 1996
Frequency: 9.200 MHz
Reception location: Thamesford, Ontario, Canada
Receiver and antenna: Panasonic RF-3100 and longwire antenna
Notes: In November 1996, the Sudan National Broadcasting Corporation in Omdurman was relatively easy to spot on their out-of-band frequency of 9200 kHz shortwave. In this brief recording, chanting is heard followed by time pips on the hour. Announcements are in Arabic. According to the 1996 Passport to World Band Radio, this particular transmission is listed as Republic of Sudan Radio.
"AWR Historical" (Cassette Recordings, Parts 1 & 2): Circa 1980
/
Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Antonio Ribeiro da Motta, who shares the following recordings and notes:
In 1980 I participated in the AWR Asia DX Contest promoted by the Radio Monitors International program produced by Mr. Adrian Petersen. The program was produced at the AWR Asia studios in Poona (India) and broadcast through the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Company via transmitters in Ekala and Colombo. Despite the reception being very difficult in South America, I managed to participate in the contest and got eighth place. As a prize, I got a cassette called AWR Historical. And it is this material that I would like to share with my friends at Shortwave Archive.
Radio Prague Interval Signals: Circa 1970 and 1999
/
Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Dan Greenall, who shares the following recordings and notes:
Broadcaster: Radio Prague: 1970 and 1999
Frequency: 7.345 MHz
Reception location: Ancaster and Thamesford, Ontario, Canada
Receiver and antenna: Hallicrafters S-52 and Drake SW-8 using a longwire antenna
Notes:
Here is a brief recording of Radio Prague in Czechoslovakia circa 1970. They are heard with their interval signal and announcement in English. The frequency was 7345 kHz.
The second recording was made June 22, 1999 at 1727 hours UTC on 21745 kHz, with their interval signal and multi-lingual ID's, as the external service of Czech Radio.
In 1970, I received a beautiful cloth bookmark from Radio Prague, and I gave it to my mother as she liked to read, and I felt it would be a way to include her in my newfound hobby of shortwave listening. She used it for the next 46 years, and I recovered it in 2016 after her passing, still in amazingly good condition.
