ANNOUNCEMENT: Grooveline trials on shortwave

For the month of March, Grooveline will be heard each weekend via the shortwave radio bands. Shortwave (as opposed to FM, MW, LW or DAB) is primarily used as an international radio band, as signals can and do travel around the world.

The transmissions take place from the Rohrbach site in Germany on 6070 kHz and require a world band radio receiver or similar device.

Last weekend our first broadcast was heard in Greece, Austria, UK, Russia and even as far away as the east coast of the USA.

This weekend, Grooveline can be heard at 1400 to 1600 GMT on Saturday 12th March on 6070 kHz. If you send a reception report to steve@groovelineonline.com you can also receive a QSL card to verify your reception.

Longer term, Grooveline may relaunch "Grooveline Monthly" exclusively for shortwave. Watch this space!
