Reminder - BBC Winter Solstice Special Broadcast JUNE 21

Once again, the BBC is transmitting a special one-off broadcast to their scientists and researchers at British Bases across the Antarctic region to celebrate the Winter Solstice. This broadcast always makes wonderful listening, giving that old-time feel to radio programming with stories and good wishes from home.

Frequencies accounted for this year's service are as follows:

JUNE 21 from 2130 to 2200 UTC

• 5905 kHz via Dhabayya
• 5985 kHz via Woofferton
• 9590 kHz via Woofferton

Over at SWLing Post, Thomas Witherspoon has a special project underway and is requesting short recordings of the broadcast from listeners around the world. You can check out details at his excellent website:

73 and good luck!
