BC-DX 841 04 Jan 2008 Private Verwendung der Meldun

The transmitter, call sign 5XX, went on air on Thursday afternoon 6th
September 1934 broadcasting the National Programme on 1500 metres (200
kHz).
It took over fully from the old Daventry transmitter on 7th October.

USA Ran across Pirating with Cumbre on WHRA 15710, Sat Aug 2 at 1250,
with R. Azteca clips from Kulpsville, full of censor-bleeps apparently you
can't even say "ass" on WHR (unless Biblequoting?) - but Marie ended DXing
with Cumbre already at 1255, into WHR promos, so did it start earlier than
1230? VG signal, but on S-meter could see some flutter, not audibly. This
airing is an apparent recent addition. Same show #593 repeated at 1431 on
11785 WHRI, after music ceased late with excessively echoey Hmong
announcement.
BTW, Marie says she lost her job and previous e-mail at Syracuse
University last year; yet her p-mail address is now via WCNY, sister
station of WAER where she worked. I see that the nice portrait of her has
disappeared from the WAER website staff page.

sure if mailout is correct, for dxld)
This clip has been posted in the station sounds folder of the dxldyg
files. I missed that transmission, nor have I heard WRNO at all again on
either frequency at various checks into early UT Tuesday Aug 5.
[Later:] WRNO, 7505, continues sporadic or on limited schedule; UT Aug 5
at 0100 UT check, not on the air, but it was running with music at 0325 UT
recheck. If anyone finds a definite program or transmission schedule, let
us know.

[Louisiana] 7505/15590 Nach vielen Jahren Sendepause wurde WRNO New
Orleans am 18. Juli 2008 mit Testsendungen auf 15590 kHz beobachtet. Nach
Angaben von Senderberater George Jacobs soll WRNO ab dem 1. August 2008
wieder regulaer senden. "Nachts" soll 7505 kHz und tagsueber 15590 kHz zum
Einsatz kommen, "aber sie duerften am Anfang nur sehr eingeschraenkte
Sendezeiten haben". Die jetzt fuer WRNO registrierten Frequenzen nutzte
zuvor das Trinity Broadcasting Network fuer seinen Kurzwellensender bei
Salt Lake City. Dieser Sender wurde am 30. Maerz 2008 stillgelegt und
unmittelbar danach demontiert. In Europa koennten die Ausstrahlungen
abends auf 15590 kHz sowie in den Morgenstunden auf 7505 kHz hoerbar
werden.
