"It's not true I had nothing on, I had the radio on" - Marilyn Monroe
It is always nice to receive Christmas wishes from stations you sent a report to. But it was very nice to get quite a few wishes from friends that I enjoy this hobby with. Thank you all for following my blog, and once again, all the best for 2026!
Below a selection of some of the e-cards I received, plus a very special email to start with:
Last weekend Key Channel Radio, broadcasting from Emilia Romagna, Italy, was on air on 6270 kHz. Massimo, who operates the station was so kind to give me a heads up warning. Reception wasn’t easy as propagation conditions were poor and there was quite a bit of noise/interference which required them to change frequency a few times.
Massimo sent me the beautiful e QSL, a friendly email and some photo’s of the stunning scenery in Emilia Romagna:
Dear Peter, thanks for your valuable listening report. In the end you listened to us too. Tough evening, stanag, CW all active. Yes we changed the frequency 4 times.
KCR has been broadcasting since January 2016 from a location on the hills of the Emilian Apennines.
We use a commercial transmitter with a maximum power of 400 W (in use 250 W) and a self-built Morgain 48/88 Antenna.
There are three of us who manage it, I take care of the technical part, programs.
My girlfriend takes care of important statistics on listeners and small studies on propagation. A dear friend of ours takes care of the graphics, the promos and QSLs are her creations.
We are an open radio, we have collaborated with several German Pirate Radios, Doctor Tim, Radio BZN and more. Now we collaborate with Radio Monique, Bart even made a broadcast and several Jingles for us. (Pirate for Peace Member).
