The blog title “Radio Memories” suggests that the memories come from time that has past, but this is definitely not the case with Radio Delta, as you will see.
When I grew up both the Medium Wave band and the Shortwave bands were crowded with broadcasting stations. There were both the big super strong stations like BBC, Voice of America, Radio Moscow etc, and at the same time there were a lot of small local radio stations. Now there are not many left, and some countries have totally disappeared from the scene. Among them Sweden and Australia.
But the summer of 2022 I made a dicovery, Radio Delta transmitting from the beautiful town of Elburg in the Netherlands, and since then I have a been a regular listener. Why? The format is close to that of Radio Luxembourg, but with a much more personal touch. The music played is mostly from the golden decades of pop music, but with this station you can come up with music requests in real time. Radio Delta is privatly owned and run by a very kind man.
The present transmission schedule is Friday – Sunday from 18:00 to 22:00 UTC on 6170 kHz. Give it a try, you wont get disappointed!
