NEWS IN ENGLISH.
To The Editor, "The Listener." Sir-In reference to the list of broadcasts in English published in your last issue, Turkey should read T instead of E. There are two further broadcasts of news in English as follows:Moscow, 8 am. 31.25 31.51 37.17 49,75 metres 959 9.52 8.06 6,03mc/s Rome, 2.R.0.3. This station on 31.13-9.63 has no definite time for news, but it is usually heard between 9.30 a.m. to 10 a.m. ; Yours, etc.,
DUAL WAVE
Auckland, March 9, 1940.
To The Editor, "The Listener." Sir-Much interest is taken these days in your DX notes, and News Bulletins in English, and as a regular reader, I have followed these two items with interest. In the present issue (Vol. 2, No. 37) you publish a letter from " Dual Wave," and his information i is not all correct. EAT Ankara, should read TAP and EAQ as TAQ, EAQ is Madrid’s call sign on 9.860 mc/s. VLR is still on 11.850 mec/s, although I believe that this change is only temporary. WRVL’s frequency is 11.790 me/s. 25.45 m. WGEF is possibly WGEA on 15,330 mc/s, 19.57 m. WGCL may be either WGEA 9550 mc/s..31.41m or WGEO 9.530 mc/s. 31.48 m., though probably the first named WCBX is on 11.830 me/s. 25.36 m. It may be of interest to readers to know that after many months of. experimenting, 2RO3, 9635 mc/s. 31.13m. has commenced a regular schedule from 6 p.m. till 7.15 p.m. with news in English at approximately 6.40 p.m. 2RO6, 15.300 mo/s. 19.61 m. carries the same programme. I think, too, that Berlin has now dropped DJN 9540 m/cs in favour of DJW 9650 mc/s. 31.09 m. WCBX 6170 mc/s. 48.62m. (6120 mc/s. 49m. every second month) and WBOS 9570 mc/s, 31.35 m. gives a news summary at 6.55 every night. Listeners will find an interesting talk broadcast each evening from Paris on 9.520 mc/s. Yours, ‘etc.,
