Radio Six International returns to shortwave and mediumwave

Effective 11 August, Scotland’s only independent international broadcaster, Radio Six International, returns to shortwave with a resumption of its Saturday morning broadcast on 9290 kHz beamed to Europe, the Far east and Pacific regions.

The programme – transmitted every Saturday between 0700 and 0800 UTC – will be relayed from the 100 kW facility at Ulbroka, Latvia as well as from the 2.7 kW mediumwave transmitter on 945 kHz in Riga, Latvia.

The station has recently expressed reservations about the effectiveness of shortwave transmissions, and is available 24 hours a day on the internet at www.radiosix.com as well as via satellite and FM in various parts of the world at certain times of day.

The shortwave and mediumwave transmissions will continue until the end of September, when the situation will be reviewed.
