More stations carrying the #OpeningCeremony of #MilanoCortina #Olympics, via #TEF6686 servers across Europe: RAI Radio 1, from a transmitter right *in* Milano:

HRT-HR 2, 2nd programme of Croatian radio, sharing airtime with Davis Cup for a bit... #MilanoCortina #Olympics #OpeningCeremony

Can't find much more from Europe, so here's... NHK Radio 1 on #mediumwave 😆 #MilanoCortina #Olympics #OpeningCeremony

Oh I did... SR P4 network, Sweden #MilanoCortina #Olympics #OpeningCeremony

And here's some German station I don't have IDed yet... but found right as Team DE had its passage in the #OpeningCeremony of #MilanoCortina #Olympics 😅

RMC France. I can always count on them for big sports! 😅 #MilanoCortina #Olympics #OpeningCeremony

I'll count on your channel for Chinese New Year shortwave frequencies, while they are in use next week. Taken the liberty of linking to you in advance ... kurzwellenradio.wordpress.com/2026/02/08/c...

Chinese New Year Programs

Thanks, of course I'll do 😄 I just need to remember the date because I think it's almost as late as its gets this year... Well, Fat Thursday is first anyway 🍩

OK, I just actually read your post. Thanks for explaining what that mysterious (to me) broadcast is about 😅 I gotta say, in the past it could be heard for a few days into the Chinese New Year, but perhaps they handle it differently now. And the start time for the CMG gala should be 1200z, not 1300.

Franz, I'm streaming 17550 kHz and perhaps some other freqs, as they do carry that programme on CNR1 ➡️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=nB98...

[SW] 17550 kHz & others - CNR1...

(1) Yes, it's that "Sound of China, China year" program indeed, and will run until 10:30 UTC, so less than half an hour. Simulcast on CPBS 1 ("Voice of China"), CPBS 2 ("Business Channel"), CPBS 5 ("Voice of Strait"), and CPBS 15 ("China Traffic Broadcasting"), ...

(2) ...according to their own announcement today. Live moderation with year in the movies reviews, music requests and "heart-warming" stories about people persevering under difficult circumstances, among others.

Now news after the day's live marathon - just mentioned: foreign-langjuage radio services will cover "chunwan", too. Now listening on 6000 kHz, still CPBS-1.

Yes I just found it on 11630 CNR17 - just not in Kazakh XD. Very surprising. BTW RNZ Pacific has moved from 13755 to 11725, still there at 1218z w/ good signal 👍

NOT hearing the Gala on 9420 & 9890 CNR13 Uighur nor on 9480 CNR11 Tibetan. The latter has what appears to be Chinese propaganda brainwashing in Tibetan - as usual, cuz I never hear anything else on that station 😆 #shortwave #ChineseNewYear #ChineseNewYearGala
