Next broadcast of NordAM

Dear listeners and friends,

We are happy to announce that the next broadcast of NordAM will be on the air tomorrow! Tune in to our special show with music from all over Europe. We have selected interesting songs from all the countries which participate in this year's European football championship. Of course, we'll talk a little bit about the matches so there's nice music for those who don't love football at all and a little bit of chatter about sports for those who hate our musical taste. If you like both it would be perfect! :-)

So tune in if you like:

Saturday, 15/06/2012: 17.00-18.15 CEST (1500-1615 UTC)

Sunday, 16/06/2012: 17.00-18.15 CEST (1500-1615 UTC)

We use Radio 700's transmitters in Kall-Krekel, Germany (with 1000 Watts). Furthermore, we can be heard on Radio 700's online live streaming.

Just go to http://radio700.de/player/player_kw.php?p=1 and select the frequency we are currently broadcasting on. These streams and frequencies normally carry the nice broadcasts of Radio 700.

Plus, there will be a very special edition of NordAM next week, so do not change the frequency on your radio-dial and wait for further announcements...!

We invite you to send us again your comments and reception reports. Detailled and correct reports will be verified with our new QSL card (by regular mail or email).

Please send all your letters and reports to: nordam @ shortwaveservice.com Or visit our Facebook site: http://www.facebook.com/pages/NordAM/231948116860158

We are excited to read where our little "student-radio-project" can be received. Feel free to forward these information to your DXing friends.

Let's meet in the 49 metre-band next Saturday and Sunday!

Best wishes,

Torben and Daniel

NordAM on shortwaves on June 2nd

Dear listeners and friends,

Thank you so much for your kind letters, reception reports and comments regarding our last transmission in April. We were wondering how we could thank you (besides of sending you our brand new QSL card, what we did already) and came to the conclusion that a magical selection of amazing tunes from all over the world would be the greatest "thank you" we could send out to all of you. Well, after having finished writing down our playlist, we aren't sure anymore wheather our selection of music is that magical acutally, but we hope you will like it anyway (plus dance while listening to our records which we will have in the show, too!)

To sum it up:
The seventh edition of NordAM will be broadcasted next Saturday:

02/06/2012

1400-1500 UTC on 6005 kHz

2000-2100 UTC on 3995 kHz

We use Radio 700's transmitters in Kall-Krekel, Germany (with 1000 Watts). Furthermore, we can be heard on Radio 700's online live streaming. Just go to <http://radio700.de/player/player_kw.php?p=1> and select the frequency we are currently broadcasting on. These streams and frequencies normally carry the nice broadcasts of Radio 700.

Once again, we will bring you some current (Indie) pop and rock music from all over the world and hope to bring you around 60 minutes of entertainment and joy. Furthermore, we have a short listener's mailbox-program and invite you to send us again your comments and reception reports.

Detailled and correct reports will be verified with our new QSL card (by regular mail or email).
Please send all your letters and reports to: nordam @ shortwaveservice.com Or visit our Facebook site: http://www.facebook.com/pages/NordAM/231948116860158
