The wonderful world of listening to the radio

QSL Radio Veronica 5955 kHz

A fully detailed eQSL from Radio Veronica on 5955 kHz. The transmitter is located in Westdorpe/Overslag in the Zeeuws Vlaanderen region near the border of The Netherlands with Belgium. The transmitter is listed with 1 kW. HF propagation can be a bit tricky, but given the signal strength overhere in Woerden (120 kilometers) I do think they are broadcasting with less power than that.

I sent my report to qsl@radioveronica.nl and received the eQSL from qslcards@radiocorp.nl

Sunlite is now Radio Veronica on 5955 kHz

The station is owned by Herbert Visser. He is founder/owner of Radiocorp , the company behind radiostations like 100%NL, SLAM! and SUNLITE. Herbert apparently runs the short wave station on 5955 as a hobby project. Broadcasts started in December 2021, intially relaying the Sunlite programs.

In 2023 Radiocorp was bought by Mediahuis, the company that also bought Radio Veronica. This probably explains the switch to relay Radio Veronica programs since end 2023. Herbert changed his eQSL format accordingly. Many shortwave listeners had hoped that Veronica Vintage would be relayed, which would be a better fit for an AM transmitter.

    Hi, greetings from New Zealand. Radio Veronica is coming in here at steady level at 0521 UTC as it is starting to get dark. Announcements cant be made out but the songs are readily identifiable.

      Hi Stu, trust you understand that this is my hobby website, and that I’m not affiliated with Radio Veronica?
      That said, very nice to learn that Veronica made into New Zealand! Veronica was the name of an iconic offshore pirate station that I grew with in the 60s.
      73s, Peter
