Don't be fooled by the signal or SNR levels shown here: this Radio Romania International 🇷🇴 signal is actually pretty weak & noisy, as storm conditions that have been destroying HF comms since Friday evening are still there, even if weaker. S9+10-15dB vs S4 noise level. #shortwave

Multiple Ukrainian TV & radio channels have been #hacked and/or #jammed on Astra 4A (4.8 E) satellite by naZi ruZZia.

Acc. to reports, interference has been appearing repeatedly for some time now, but peaked on May 9, when naZi hackers managed to replace several channels' output with live footage of "victory parade" in moZcow.

Dutch NPO Radio 2 playlist in the hour leading to #Eurovision final yesterday... and the system failed to catch one more #Europapa airing which got mixed with the 20:51 one 😂

BTW the "lange versie" is simply one with custom intro containing station ID.

Guardian reports #Eurovision lost almost a quarter of viewership in the UK this year compared to last. But note last year's show was organized in Liverpool, by the BBC.

Anyway, I'd love to see viewing figures in other countries as well; this should help prove the theory that #Israel got more points from the public thanks to other people boycotting it 🙃

Whoa, our #Eurovision commentator, who, as you may be aware, had been on air until around 1am, is back live, hosting another music talent show from 3:15pm 😮

Eden Golan displayed incredible bravery, singing her song flawlessly despite being surrounded by a sea of hate. She dedicated her participation to the hostages.

The EBU apparently didn’t allow the Israeli presenter to wear a yellow ribbon pin. Because reminding the world of the hostages, not just Israeli but of many nationalities, is “political.” Just like mourning the massacre at a music festival is “political,” so the original Israeli song lyrics were disqualified. The world is working hard and actively to promote a collective amnesia of the 7 October pogrom. It has been 219 days. #BringThemHome #BringThemHomeNow #Israel #Eurovision

OK, in the end it turns out my 91.1 FM Aurora catch from 3am yesterday was NOT SWR1 RP.

I wrote to the station using the form on their website https://www.swr.de/swr1/rp/kontakt/swr1rp-mail-ins-studio-100.html
and got a reply from Jürgen Kurth, DG7KH, who could not confirm my YT recording be of SWR1 RP. He even sent an off-air recording of the station at the same time as my recording, and they definitely don't match.

So what is it? Next guess, probably the more obvious one is Antenne Brandenburg, 20kW from Casekow.

So far no #aurora on FM, and there's actually a fair amount of activity on HF, including 3 29B6s around 15 MHz, and a very strong VOA Hausa on 15185 kHz, I think from Santa Maria di Galeria🇻🇦 #shortwave

Just finished watching #Eurovision
Overall there were so many really amazing songs!
My personal favorites were the Irish song and the one from Cyprus, but a bunch of others were outstanding as well including the Austrian entry that won.
Also I guess it is a sign of progress that the German entry the first time since years wasn't last xD

Massive signal of naZi belaruZZian #propaganda service targeting Poland on 106.2 MHz from Brest/Rakitnitsa, currently bashing same-sex marriages and praising the Taliban for fighting with these "modern practices" xD #FMDX
