Welcome to this special broadcast of Radio Delta. Today, we have a remarkable reception report from El Prat de Llobregat, near Barcelona, Spain. Our listener, Tomás Méndez Losa, tuned in to our frequency and has shared his experience with us.

Picture an early morning in Barcelona, where Tomás is nestled, clutching his trusty Tecsun PL880 radio receiver. The sounds of early birds chirping fill the air, yet his focus is rooted on the radio, eagerly anticipating the enchantment of shortwave broadcasts.

On the 2nd of February, 2025, at precisely 8:30 UTC, Tomás tuned into our frequency of 9.800 kHz. With a simple telescopic antenna extending outward, he was prepared to capture every nuance of the transmission. As the clock struck 8:37 UTC, he was greeted by a special segment hosted by Ignacio Sotomayor from Madrid, discussing the rich history of shortwave listening while extending warm salutes to Radio Delta.

Moments later, at 9:01 UTC, the conversation shifted to our new frequency, alongside an exciting recording clip available on YouTube, showcasing how technology beautifully intertwines with the traditional art of radio. The musical interlude began at 9.:5 UTC, with Tomás rocking out to “Come Together” by Aerosmith, followed by the upbeat tune “Living on Video” by Trans-X. Each note resonated through his radio, filling the air with joy and nostalgia.

As the hour-long session drew to a close, he enjoyed the final song, “De Diepte” by S10, which played at 9:14 UTC, perfectly wrapping up an enchanting listening experience. Grateful for the wonderful broadcast, Tomás expressed his heartfelt appreciation for our programming, praising the clarity and stability of our new frequency. He even shared a recording link with us, reflecting his passion for shortwave radio and his connection to a community that spans the globe.

As he turned off his beloved Tecsun receiver, Tomás felt an undeniable connection to the distant voices he had just encountered and to fellow listeners who share in this extraordinary journey. Thank you, Tomás Méndez Losa, for sharing your remarkable experience with us! It’s listeners like you who keep the spirit of radio alive.
