As pointed out in other post, WRNO Worldwide is officially back on the
air. I thought I would post this to clear up some of the questions I have
read in earlier post. The new licensed frequencies are for WRNO are: 7355,
7505 and 15590. For the time being, 7505 is the only frequency being used.
Air time is [0100-0400 UT] 8:00 PM to 11:00 PM Central time.
We have received very good reports from listeners on the East Coast,
Canada, and some European Countries. As to RFI interference complaints
from the neighborhood, so far there have been none. RF is at the full 50
kWw licensed output and modulation is clean. The transmitter runs cool
with current readings at the low end of their maximum ratings.
The daytime frequency of 15590 has not been on the air long enough (only
testing at this point), to determine how it will get along with the
neighborhood but testing results were good. As time goes on, Air Time will
be increased as will the daytime frequency of 15590.

RAMADAN - approx. 1 Sept - 30 Sept, 2008.
Der islamische Fastenmonat Ramadan steht bald wieder an. Er beginnt in
diese Jahr am 01. September und endet mit dem traditionellen Ramadanfest
(Id-al-fitr) am 30. September.
Der Termin kann je nach Land um einen Tag variieren. Viele Radiostationen
in islamischen Staaten senden waehrend des Ramadan 24 Stunden lang, was
die Empfangsmoeglichkeiten erhoehen kann.
