Uncle Bill’s Melting Pot announced a new program on September 21, 2024. A must for lovers of LA music and those who long for the old “tropical band” years.

Their message:

Our special guest Julio Cesar Pereira, who has done the excellent Ginga Brasil! programme on shortwave in the past, will be with us to present the very distinctive music of the states of Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sur n Brazil. This episode may surprise even regular followers of Brazilian music.

1700-1800 UTC 9670 kHz with beam E-F towards South Asia but very good in Eastern Europe and parts of Eurasia

1900-2000 UTC 3955 & 6070 kHz (omnidirectional for Europe and beyond)

2300-2400 UTC 9670 kHz with a special beam M-N towards South America for this episode. This might also be audible in parts of South Asia.

All transmissions from Channel 292, Rohrbach, Germany

Reception reports will be recognized via eQSLs even if webSDRs are used (provided that which SDR is clearly identified and the report covers the whole program, not just a few minutes.)
