Week 11

This Sunday, catch us on the airwaves at 6110 and 12.030 in the shortwave band. These detailed messages aim to showcase the meaningful interactions and connections Radio Delta International fosters with its listeners. Feel free to further personalize or expand upon these narratives to enrich the storytelling.

Expanding Our Reach

We’ve been extensively testing to potentially introduce broadcasts on the 31m band. Our ongoing tests aim to gauge the band’s performance, particularly its short skip capability during the daytime in Europe. This close-range efficiency is promising. The good reception reports from our listeners on 12.030 pushing us to explore new frequencies on the 25m band for the upcoming summer, enhancing our broadcasting flexibility.

Special Reception Shoutouts:

  1. Peter from Whitstable, Kent, UK, a recent discoverer of Radio Delta International, shares his enchantment with the magic of radio. Despite the challenge of receiving a slightly weak signal on 6110, Peter is determined to optimize his receiver for clearer reception. He expresses anticipation for more engaging content and appreciates the station’s international perspective during these times of global connectivity.
  2. Walt a loyal listener from Masset in Canada, recounts his reliance on Radio Delta International as his Saturday night companion. Reflecting on varying reception quality, Walt predicts the need for higher frequencies as spring approaches for better reception. He looks forward to the potential reach of 12030 during late evenings and commends the station for its consistent excellence.
  3. Dieter, a devoted listener from Hamburg, Germany, shares his journey with Radio Delta International. Enthralled by the station’s personal touch and sense of community, Dieter highlights the unique connection felt with the station and fellow listeners. He praises the diverse music selection and special segments like “Aart goes DX,” emphasizing the inclusive and engaging nature of Radio Delta’s programming.

This week, Radio Delta can be tuned in on 6110 kHz and 12.030 kHz shortwave frequencies. For a detailed schedule, visit our broadcast schedule. As spring approaches, we are gearing up for some outdoor antenna adjustments for both frequencies to enhance your listening experience. The studio has also undergone some minor improvements to ensure top-notch broadcasting quality.

We are thrilled to announce that we are nearing 500 subscribers on YouTube! If you haven’t already, make sure to subscribe to our channel “Radio Delta International” to enjoy more engaging content.

Special Reception Shoutouts:

  1. Friedrich from Germany:”Hi, today I received Radio Delta mobile in the car. The reception on the A20 motorway in northern Germany is fantastic! Thanks to the whole team for the great program”.
  2. Gregg from the USA:”I tuned in from Massachusetts USA on 12030 kHz. Reception is clear and enjoyable. Thank you for the music and for reading my report! I tuned in a little while ago, 0821 GM/UTC (after seeing a report on the HF Underground).  Reception is fair and clear with a SINPO of 35443.  I am using a Icom R-75 receiver with an end fed wire antenna about 20 meters long. I just heard you read my report! And now you are playing Man of Action, which is one of my favorites”.
  3. Jim from Devon: Sent in beautiful videos and mentioned that 12.030 kHz is often clearer in the UK than 6110 kHz. A learning experience for all involved!

Important Note:

Radio Delta will be off-air in Week 14, Week 15, and Week 16. Stay tuned for our return after this short break. Enjoy listening and feel free to share any special contributions or feedback with us. Happy tuning!

Week 9

This week, you can tune in to Radio Delta on 6110 kHz and 12.030 kHz shortwave frequencies. Currently, there are no new developments regarding our transmitters and antennas; they are operating optimally. Implementing multiple improvements would have a significant impact, so we are evaluating this further. Our focus has been on studio automation, a development that is enhancing the broadcast quality and giving Radio Delta International its distinct sound. 

We’ve received wonderful feedback, including a special note from Paul Rudd in Scotland. He sent us a lovely handwritten letter, reminiscent of the 80s when listeners used their own radio setups to contact us. We greatly appreciate Paul Rudd’s gesture and wish him continued enjoyment of our broadcasts!

Phil Hayward shared a memory related to Robbie Williams, mentioning a photo he took years ago near Tunstall Park. He captured the spot of a missing blue plaque from the wall where Robbie Williams once lived.
