There were some nice signals from Bolivia this morning, May 31, 2024. Radio Caranavi, from the city of the same name, has been heard repeatedly in recent weeks on the now free medium wave frequency 1550 kHz until the end of transmission shortly after 03:00 UT. The fact that Radio Luz del Mundo from La Paz, the capital of Bolivia, located on the Altiplano plateau of the Andes at more than 3,500 metres above sea level, could also be heard on 1560 kHz at around 01:00 UT makes the hobby even more enjoyable!
I have been able to listen to Radio Espinar from Yauri, the capital of the province of Espinar in south-central Peru in the Cusco region, on 1480 kHz in Salzburg over the last few days. The station confirmed reception to me today with a friendly e-mail.

Propagation in the mediumwave band is still very weak, so I’m pleased about the logs from today, May 17, 2024.

BBC Radio Guernsey, from the Saint Peter Port station, can be heard every evening on medium wave 1116 kHz. May 3, 2024 I was able to listen to the island station in Salzburg at around 21 UT.
