Dear FRS Friends!
The time has finally come... After a (too...) long break, FRS-Holland will return to the airwaves next July/August.
A combination of circumstances forced us to be inactive for more than 6 months. We do regret this inactivity but:
with new energy we will soon return to the shortwave airwaves.
Good news: all familiar FRS voices will join: Jan, Mike, Bert, Dave & Peter V.
Important: our website frsholland.nl will be off line for a while because we switch to a new provider.
That implies we will build a new site starting in July/ August.
At the same time you cannot check our website for the latest details regarding the FRS Summer Splash.
In this mail we will supply the most important information, share it with any radio friend/ colleague!
We hope those who run a blog will share the info with their readers. Thanks in advance!!
FRS Summer Splash
Following last year's successful edition, we hope you will also enjoy the upcoming one.
Our schedule: 3 weeks in a row, a 2 hour broadcast.
Sunday July 23rd 18:59- 21:04 UTC/ 20:59- 23:04 CEST
Sunday July 30th 18:59- 21:04 UTC/ 20:59- 23:04 CEST
Sunday August 6th 18:59- 20:59 UTC/ 20:59- 23:04 CEST
All programmes will be thematic including various radio related items. Don't miss it!
Frequencies
Frequencies will be 6185 kHz & 7700//5800 (or 5790) kHz. Last year we experienced some difficulties with a suitable
5.8 MHz frequency, so it’s hard to give you the exact frequency. But it will be close to (or on) 5800 kHz.
Streams
Of course there will be streams as well in the week after the shortwave broadcasts.

Unfortunately we haven't received conformation about dates/ times. We prefer the same schedule
as last year. If so, then have a look below. Realize: it's not for sure! So listen to the SW shows for
the latest info regarding Laut FM streaming.
