Realmix Radio RMR put into operation today a stronger transmitter on 1485 kHz.
The start was shy in Sweden but the skipper took it all the way to Norway, S7 in Julussdalen – not bad at all. Congratulations!
The new transmitter is 300 watts… but it still needs some adjustments.

Radio Caroline writes on Facebook:

We can now confirm that Ross Revenge has been booked in to the MMS Ship Repair and Dry Dock facility in Hull for structural repairs and work will start on Monday 8 March. The ship needs to arrive at the shipyard two weeks before the start date so, weather permitting, she will leave the Blackwater Estuary mid-February. The journey by tug will take approximately two days.

While we had hoped to get Ross Revenge into the dry dock earlier, the shipyard has been asked to carry out major work on a ship which has sailed across the Atlantic from Canada. MMS Shipyard was chosen for this contract because of its reputation, skills and experience.

This delay gives us time to complete extensive onboard preparations and continue to raise funds, so that as much work as possible can be carried out while Ross Revenge is in dry dock. It is likely the ship will be in dry dock for a minimum of six weeks.

If you would like to support our Ross Revenge Charity Dry Dock Appeal you can make a donation if you wish at rossrevengeofficial.com or enter our Crowdfunder Prize Draws .

As always, our listeners’ continued support is incredibly appreciated.
Thank you

Newest IRCA Slogans List now available.

[MW, mostly N American]
https://misc.kg4lac.com/irca
4,607 stations with slogans.
If a station doesn’t appear this indicates I don’t have the station slogan.
Since silent stations come and go, seemingly, quicker than I can update the list, silent stations remain in the list until they are actually deleted from the FCC list.

As always, please let me know of additions, corrections, problems, etc.

Mongolias Ulgii transmitter on 209 kHz has lost it’s audio feed or has gone faulty. Just before closedown yesterday the woman’s voice stopped and then a silent period when the anthem is usually played. Then the transmitter was switched off as usual. Today there’s a signal with no audio.
It’s just been fixed 17:00 EEST, Audio is back .

No anthem for the past two days though, there’s a long silence then switch off.
The Audio was a lot better it seemed.

Ok so Ulgii has lost the feed to the national service. It only carries the local programme in the last hour or so. A silent carrier at other times. 164 I can hear has normal programming. Not sure when this will be fixed.
