Has #Iran started doing co-channeling the China way?
I'm seeing as many as 3 or 4 carriers on 1548 kHz, accompanying Voice of Trump Farsi via Kuwait🇰🇼 -- and that's with the small terminated Flag NULLING the Middle East!
OK, one is an impostor, Radio Islam 🇿🇦. But others?
#mediumwave #IranWar
864 kHz: an extended late-night #Ramadan prayer service with lots of consecutive Allahu Akbar's running on NMA Holy Quran 🇪🇬 // SBA Radio Riyadh & SBA Holy Quran 🇸🇦! Was clobbered by co-ch Iran International via Gavar🇦🇲 until 2305z when it went dead-air (carrier is still there). #mediumwave #mwdx
1314 kHz: Radio Oltenia briefly on beyond usual 0400-2000z schedule, with a radio play involving some witch incantations. Next to 1323 IRRS w/ Latin American mx, 16 Gwendoline Street? @rnei.org? #mediumwave #mwdx
Azimuthal map from NS6T.net centered on Roumoules (loc. JN33bt), with grayline shade for 23:01 UTC Saturday March 7th, 2026. I also highlighted the 325-degree direction with a red line, as it crosses France, UK, South Greenland, across Canada to PNW USA (although the broadcast won't likely reach there due to daylight across much of Canadian part of the path).
Similar map for 23:59 UTC same day, now with slightly more darkness across Canada.
A new #MWDX possibility from Europe 👀
Radio Six International will test via TWR Roumoules🇫🇷 on 1467 kHz, tonight @ 2300-2400z. Power 1000kW, directional @ 325deg
If successful, a regular slot will be launched there.
This will easily carry on to North America!

#shortwave #mediumwave #Iran #IranWar #WARINIRAN
864 kHz: another #clandestine programming to #Iran. This time it sounds more analytical, with plenty of mentions of Trump and extensive soundbytes of him, translated. VOA? Over/under the Egyptian, this time I used the Co-Channel Canceller to keep NMA in check. #mediumwave #IranWar #WARINIRAN
774 kHz: HEARING INTERVAL SIGNAL OF NHK RADIO 2!!!!!!!
Started @ 2048z. Stands out pretty well out of nasty hum, presumed Egypt, and #Iran.
Remember, NHK Radio 2 is set to close on Mar 31! #mediumwave #mwdx
738 kHz: IRIB Radio Bushehr appears to still run its own programming instead of the compulsory midnight news from IRIB Radio Iran 😮 weak signal. #mediumwave #Iran #IranWar #WARINIRAN
638.955 kHz: strong off-frequency carrier blocking other (weak) stations on 639, primarily Radio Sultanate of Oman. Must be Voice of Islamic Republic of #Iran via Bonab, only scheduled for some Kurdish & Turkish pxs until 1920z. #mediumwave #mwdx
Oh oh, VOA Farsi is missing from #shortwave! 😱
7590 - missing
9915 - missing
11575 - carries Radio Farda instead, at least from 1400z
1548 still has VOA w/ Iranian Bubble Jammer now actually on *1548*
#shortwave #mediumwave #Iran #IranWar #WARINIRAN
1368 kHz: Studio 13 in Thessaloniki🇬🇷 alone on the freq w/ Greek music and IDs by YL & OM @ 1732z, as IRIB Radio Golestan is missing. #mediumwave #mwdx #Iran #IranWar #WARINIRAN
864 kHz: new #clandestine to #Iran, likely via Yerevan-Gavar🇦🇲. I think it IDed as Radio Iran-e Azad. Fair signal, more or less QRM de NMA Holy Quran 🇪🇬

If you have any recordings of Iranian radio on #shortwave, #mediumwave, maybe even FM - or if you have recordings of any external station targeting #Iran (BBC, VOA, Radio Farda, Iran International, clandestines?)... feel free to add them to this new YouTube playlist ⏯️

And in IRIB news I'm hearing people genuinely mourning #Khameini, crying, some in quite a despair, over sad music.
Looks like quite a different world, a parallel universe, having seen & heard clips of actual celebration on Radio Farda & Iran International 🤨
#Iran #IranWar #WARINIRAN #mediumwave
#Mediumwave from #Iran does look unusual tonight. 1026 IRIB Radio Tabriz has been Quraning until 2029z, leading to midnight "news" @ 2030z, while on 900 kHz, IRIB Radio Quran is marred with noise.
Oh, the news opens WITHOUT the usual military march! 😮 #IranWar #WARINIRAN
Well, I thought there'd be some bigger deal with IRIB on 702, but no. A two-men discussion was so badly overmodulated, I thought it was in Farsi. But now another OM on phone definitely speaks Azeri. 500kW aimed due North, leaving South to explore by the BBC 🙂 #Iran #IranWar #WARINIRAN #mediumwave
Whoa, SW turned out to be a no-show, but I just managed to snag a snippet of BBC Farsi emergency broadcast in the clear on 702 AM via Oman! 😱
Turned out this was on a fade of co-channel IRIB Kiashahr... but stay tuned for a post on that! #mediumwave #Iran #IranWar #WARINIRAN
And I'm hearing Radio Farda indeed on 1395 MW, // 13755, 7510 & 5860, w/ no #jamming, except there's an actual Iranian station on the same freq. #mediumwave #Iran #IranWar #WARINIRAN
The BBC has announced an "emergency" service to #Iran a few weeks ago as
1630-1700z 702 🇴🇲, 9465 🇴🇲
1800-1830z 702 🇴🇲, 5935 🇦🇪
I wonder if morning broadcasts @ 0400z on 9410 kHz, as reported in January, are still there?
Likewise 1730z & 1930z on 1395 🇦🇲
#shortwave #mediumwave #IranWar
Seeing a station on 160m as high as 1999 kHz LSB 😳 rag-chewing here as the rest of the band is filled with #CQWW160 contest #hamradio #mediumwave
Several Middle Eastern AM stations are sounding rather abnormal, for obvious reasons.
On 1134 kHz, Radio Kuwait is in a rolling-news mode
And on 801, IRIB Radio Khorasan-e Razavi has a mix of agitated speech, patriotic music, and anti-Israeli chants, like this:
#mediumwave #mwdx #WARINMIDDLEEAST
And IRIB Radio Kermanshah 🇮🇷 is playing an instrumental version of Miley Cyrus - Flowers! Who would've thought?! 😲 #mediumwave #mwdx
Listening to 1278 kHz, #Ukraine Radio has gone open-carrier a couple minutes ago, in the midst of Suspilne newscast (a TV simulcast?). The audio hasn't returned yet as on 1916z, leaving a weak IRIB Radio Kermanshah (itself 1st heard in over a year!) on freq. #mediumwave #WARINUKRAINE 4th Anniversary
Did not find the Gala on 5050 Beibu Bay Radio, but here in this location, actually receiving this station is already a success. #shortwave
#mediumwave looks promising. CNR11 pretty strong on 1098, and I can weakly hear CNR1 on 1377, better on 1539. 1557 already blocked by R.Lenta.
#ChineseNewYear
They say #AMradio in soooo inefficient & unfriendly to environment...
so they destroyed a lot of greenery just to destroy some AM towers 🤡

Can't find much more from Europe, so here's... NHK Radio 1 on #mediumwave 😆 #MilanoCortina #Olympics #OpeningCeremony
Nashville area #AMradio DEVASTATION by the recent ice storm...
Staggering to see even WLAC down 😱
