Yes, this is the jammer similar against 6085 kHz as checked previously. Just checked via University Enschede-Twente at 0955 UT. The current programme of Radio Ukraine via Kall 6005 kHz is effectively jammed, but not necessarily by Russian operators (alone). At least some of the jamming signal (das sehr schnelle auf und ab einzelner Toene, plus Morse) is of the kind heard before the invasion of Ukraine. As you know Kall's frequencies are regularly jammed by someone who claims this is in retaliation for Kall's jamming of other stations. In this case, the unknown enemy of Shortwave Service Kall .... While the German Radio War between some operators is a shame in itself, this jamming is even more inappropriate. On the other hand, rumors have that one of the operators involved in the radio war is leaning to the right, and our German right (AFD) and left (die Linke) were the best Putin Versteher and appeasers anyway.

Danach kamen Musik und Wiederholungen von textlich Wikipedia-nahen Radioportraits und halbstuendiger Magazine. Nur vereinzelt gab es auch tagesaktuelle Themen, z.B. am 5. Dezember 2021, als es um die moralische Rueckendeckung des US-Aussenministers Antony Blinken fuer Ukraine ging.

On February 28, 2022, WDR Cosmo, a multicultural program of the public radio for Germans, migrants and relatives of later generations, launched 60 second news for Ukrainians in Germany. Ukrainian is the 11th broadcast language after German, Arabic, Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian, Italian, Polish, Russian, Turkish and additionally Greek, Kurdish and Spanish at weekends. Deutschlandminute follows a similar format in Russian but is produced by the Polish editors in cooperation with the Russian editors and a Ukrainian journalist. It brings "verified news about and from Germany" for Ukrainians already residing in Germany, but also service content for newcomers. The news minute is available on weekdays from 18.00 h local time at and is broadcast on FM at the beginning of the Polish program at 22.00 h. Jacek Tyblewski, coordinator of Cosmo's language services, described DW Ukrainian as the most important German news source in Ukrainian in an interview on February 28, but emphasized that Deutsche Welle offers information for people in Ukraine, while Cosmo wants to reach Ukrainians in Germany.

Vlad Titarev-UKR to MWlist iog (2022-03-07) Ukraine March 7, 2022 This morning 657 kHz was on air. 549 kHz wasn't on air; 837 and 873 kHz weren't checked by me. In this article from Radio Eins "Radio-News" (Kai Ludwig-D 28 Febr) is mentioned that some years ago maybe the transmitters were salvaged, although all antennas are still there. Google translated from German: "The existing medium wave transmitters are also used in the .... A recep- tion observation is particularly noteworthy, which points to a direct confrontation in this area as well. This applies to the 810 kHz frequency, on which the Ukrainian military broadcaster Armija FM is temporarily active. This medium wave is more of an appendage to the VHF network and is even not mentioned in the Armija FM frequency list. Now there is a report that the Russian Westi FM was heard on this fre- quency. Anything else is inevitably speculation. However, one possibility can be cited that would not even require technical changes. The medium wave station in Volgograd, which has been idle since the be- ginning of 2015, is thought to have been conserved. In addition to the main frequency of 567 kHz, there is also a second powerful transmitter for the frequency of 810 kHz. It belonged to Radio Majak's AM network, which was shut down in 2012. In the meantime, attempts are being made in the Ukraine to restart those medium-wave transmitters that have only been idle for a few years due to the chronic underfunding of broadcasting. The 549 kHz frequency, which was switched on again immediately on February 24, was followed the next day by the 837 kHz transmitter. However, a re- eption observation speaks of the almost immediate termination of the signal at 3:37 p.m. CET. On February 26 and 27, two more transmitters, at best 25 kW, went back into operation on 657 kHz and 1404 kHz. In Kyiv, on the other hand, there is nothing left to reactivate. The ex- tensive transmission systems for long wave (207 kHz, shut down in 2010), medium wave and short wave (shut down here in 2002) were demolished bet- een 2005 and 2013. One should not bet too early on the transmitters in the Lviv area, about which there is speculation precisely because of the former single-wave operation of medium wave 549 kHz: Years ago, there was lively mention of the use of the hacksaw in the transmitter room."

(Ehard Goddijn-HOL via Steve Whitt-UK, via BrDXC-UK March 2) UKRAINE Reaktivierung von Mittelwellen in der Ukraine. Der ukrainische oeffentliche Rundfunk wurde nach der russischen Invasion auf ein Programm reduziert. Die stillgelegten Mittelwellen Mykolaiv-Luch 549 kHz, Chernivtsi 657 kHz, Charkiw 837 kHz und Izmail 1404 kHz wurden umgehend reaktiviert. Auch der Soldatensender Armiya FM war wieder auf der 2021/22 kurz getesteten Mittelwelle Hirnyk 810 kHz zu hoeren. Als erste ukrainische Mittelwelle ging am 24. Februar direkt an der Grenze zur Krim Chonhar 648 kHz verloren. Hier wurde seit 2019 das RFE/RL-Pro- gramm Radio Krym Realii ausgestrahlt. Die naechste Mittelwelle war Luch 549 kHz. Am Abend des 5. Maerz 2022 gab es eine Absage mit dem Hinweis auf Kaempfe. (ca. 19.30 Uhr UTC 549 kHz ist eine alte sowjetische Gleichwelle. Bereits am 25. Februar 2022 vermutete Wolfgang Bueschel mit Blick auf die Karten, dass der ukrainische Rundfunk an der Wiederherstellung von Sendemoeglichkeiten aus dem west- ukrainischen Lviv-Krasne arbeiten muesste. Am 8. Maerz wurde noch 1278 kHz aus Petrivka aktiviert, auf einer in Europa fast freien Frequenz. Allerdings ist die Region Odesa die vorletzte zu erobernde, wenn als russisches Restkriegsziel vor einem Waffen- stillstand ohne Friedensschluss die Wiederrichtung von Neurussland terri- torial verwirklicht werden soll. 2014 riefen die ostukrainischen Republiken einen "foederativen Staat Neu- russland" aus und luden Charkow, Odessa und Dnipropetrowsk dazu. Die letzte "neurussische" Region waere Pridnestrovie, wenn nicht auch Moldova. Am 11. Maerz 2022 berichtete die Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, dass Mykola Chernotytskyi, Chef des ukrainischen Rundfunks UA:PBC, die oeffent- lich-rechtlichen Gegenstuecke in den Nachbarlaendern gebeten habe, Mittel- wellen fuer den ukrainischen Rundfunk bereitzustellen. Dass der Bitte entsprochen wird, ist sehr abzuwarten. Die Uebernahme des ukrainischen Rundfunks in DAB-Netze bzw. online-Portale kann als Massnahme zugunsten der Fluechtlinge gerechtfertigt werden. Die Nutzung der fuer das Inland bereits abgeschriebenen Mittelwelle als Ersatz fuer verlorene ukrainische Mittelwellen ist dann doch von anderer Art. Aetherkrieg des kleinen Mannes. Schon weit vor dem Ukraine-Krieg galt dem russischen Buzzer 4625 kHz im Januar 2022 ungewoehnlich viel Aufmerksamkeit. Das ukrainische Trolling mit Musik, Ansagen (Beschimpfungen) usw. wurde auch im Februar und Maerz fortgesetzt. Nach dem Angriff auf Ukraine erhoehte sich nicht nur die militaerische Kommunikation im Kurzwellenbereich, sondern gab es auch diverse Sendungen von ukrainischen oder solidarischen europaeischen Kleinsendern. So wurden Relaissendungen ukrainischer Inlandprogramme beobachtet (Radio Deltracks 5015 kHz. Radio Onda 6140 kHz. Indy Radio 6931 kHz. Wer auf 6342 kHz?), aber auch Dauerschleifen mit Musik und Beschimpfungen (4781 kHz inklusive "Russenschwein"). Altbekannt ist der weiter gehoerte Hobbypirat Radiostantsiya Evropa (5835,2 kHz), der seit 2017 auch einen Youtube-Kanal hat. Damals wurden als Kurzwellen 3920, 5596, 5835,2 kHz (Hauptfrequenz) und 7780 kHz angegeben. Englischsprachige Nachrichten. Der Auslandsdienst, der wenigstens mit Kurznachrichten haette Sympathien fuer Ukraine gewinnen koennen, wurde erst einmal eingestellt. Tatsaechlich stellte die private US-amerikanische Kurzwellenstation WRMI Okeechobee (Florida) sofort Sendezeit zur Uebertragung von Radio Ukraine Inter- national bereit: 12.00-13.00 Uhr auf 5010 kHz (100 kW, 181 degr). Am 3. Maerz gab es im Rahmen des Einheitsprogramms wieder englisch- sprachige Nachrichten, die erkennbar auf ein online-Abhoeren in Nord- amerika zielten (01.00 Uhr UTC, ca. 5 Minuten). Eine vom Berichterstatter gehoerte Sendung enthielt die erwartbaren Mitteilungen ueber Kaempfe bzw. russische Attacken auf zivile Ziele und Kriegsverbrechen. Ein anderer Hoerer berichtete, dass auch Freiwillige gesucht wuerden. Die ent- prechende Website sucht ehemalige Armeeangehoerige/Reservisten mit Kampf- erfahrung und eigener Ausruestung. In NATO-Laendern warnen Experten dringend vor einem Freiwilligeneinsatz, weil Russland solche Aktionen als verdecktes Eingreifen in den Krieg werten werde und als Kriegsgrund nutzen koenne. Auch so verschiedene Laender wie Georgien und Nigeria haben solche Ausreisen verhindert. Bei findet man inzwischen drei Stroeme mit in Ukrainisch und gleich lauter Simultanuebersetzung ins Russische und Englische. Hier wird auch mitgeteilt, das ukrainische Mobilfunkbetreiber keine Kosten fuer den Aufruf im Inland berechnen. (Dr. Hansjoerg Biener-D, 12 March) UKRAINE Kraina FM being relayed on 5015 kHz.

(Bruce Churchill-USA, wor March 17) USA [and Non ] Shortwaves for Freedom press release, 13 March, with transmission sked. Crowdfunding Effort Transmits VOA, RFE/RL Programs to Russia, Ukraine. March 13, 2022. Contact: Kate Neiswender, Esq. phone +1 (213)-457-3488 A week-old grassroots crowdfunding campaign, Shortwaves for Freedom, is launching additional radio broadcasts this week to Russia, Belarus, Ukraine and other parts of Eastern Europe to provide critical information from Voice of America and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty programs. "We quickly raised enough money from our online appeal to start funding transmissions on Tuesday to the region from a private FCC-licensed shortwave station in Florida and from Monday, March 14th, we will expand broadcasts from commercial stations outside the United States," said Kate Neiswender, a California lawyer and spokesperson for the campaign. Shortwaves for Freedom, with now more than a total of $10,000 in contri- butions from individual donors in the United States, Canada and other countries, is paying commercial broadcasters to air transmissions of the Russian and English language programs of VOA and RFE/RL. It plans to also fund Ukrainian language programs soon to reach Ukrainians, many now without electricity in their own country, as well as those who have taken- refuge in Moldova, Poland and other countries. The unprecedented campaign is not affiliated with VOA and RFE/RL or their parent organization, the United States Agency for Global Media. "We hope USAGM will realize the dire need for radio broadcasts at a time of war when millions of people have been cut off from the internet and credible TV news due to censorship by Russia, the destruction of infra- structure and their homes," said Neiswender. "Until the U.S. government decides to adequately return to radio - both shortwave and mediumwave (known as 'AM radio') - we will fund transmissions as long as we have money." The additional transmitters to be utilized from Monday "will put a stronger shortwave signal into the target region and add medium wave," said Gerhard Straub, the former director of USAGM's Broadcast Technologies Division, who is among those providing expert advice to Shortwaves for Freedom. "In times of crisis if the content is compelling, the audience will go where they know the information is," Straub said, addressing the question of radio's ability to help effectively counter the Kremlin's obstruction of outside media. Reception of the initial broadcasts from Florida have been confirmed in the targeted countries. The initial broadcasts that commenced over the past week will continue from WRMI (Radio Miami International), utilizing 100,000-watt transmitters beaming to Eastern Europe. Here is the daily schedule [7x/week unless noted] from March 14 being funded by Shortwaves for Freedom: (UTC is +4 hours EDT): 02:00-04:00 UTC Radio Svoboda (RFE/RL Russian) 7780 kHz 18:00-19:00 UTC Radio Svoboda 1395 kHz MW {Yerevan Gavar site, wb.} 19:00-20:00 UTC Radio Svoboda 9370 kHz 19:30-20:00* UTC 'Flashpoint Ukraine' (VOA English) 15770 kHz (* Monday-Friday) Shortwaves for Freedom is not affiliated with any government, political, corporation organization or any special-interest group.

The editorial board is independent and consists of journalists Olga Maxe, Maxim Lapitsky and Yuri Gurman. They have solid journalistic experience and were formerly part of the Russian news editorial staff of Sveriges Radio (the now defunct Swedish national radio broadcaster, funded by the state).
