ITALY   This message comes to you from Marconi Radio International MRI

the signal was weak, the station has already been heard in Bulgaria,

went on the air for the first time on 4th January, 1986. Currently we
are airing test broadcasts quite erratically. Information on days and
times of our tests will be sent in advance to shortwave community.  

The next test broadcast is scheduled today, 20th August 2015, from
approximately 1630 to 2030UTC. Our frequency is 11390 kHz, and power
in the region of 30 watts. Test brodcast consist of non stop music
and station identification announcements in Italian, English, Spanish
and Catalan but it is possible that old programs are aired, too.

MRI welcomes reception reports from listeners. Audio clips (mp3-file)
of our broadcasts are welcome! We QSL 100%. Our E-mail address is:

ITALY   This message comes to you from Marconi Radio International MRI
which, after an absence of more than 15 years, returned to the air on
15th August 2015 from a never used before transmitter site. Although
the signal was weak, the station has already been heard in Bulgaria,
Scotland and The Netherlands. We are a small Italian free radio which
went on the air for the first time on 4th January, 1986. Currently we
are airing test broadcasts quite erratically. Information on days and
times of our tests will be sent in advance to shortwave community.  

The next test broadcast is scheduled today, 20th August 2015, from
approximately 1630 to 2030UTC. Our frequency is 11390 kHz, and power
in the region of 30 watts. Test brodcast consist of non stop music
and station identification announcements in Italian, English, Spanish
and Catalan but it is possible that old programs are aired, too.

MRI welcomes reception reports from listeners. Audio clips (mp3-file)
of our broadcasts are welcome! We QSL 100%. Our E-mail address is:
<marconiradiointernational@gmail.com>

We hope that you will share this information with your members.
