Hello friends, The first Shortwave Radiogram has been uploaded to WRMI. Instead of the wav file that I sent to the VOA North Carolina transmitter site, the file for WRMI is mp3, 128kbps. This should be more than adequate for good decoding, but if you experience problems that might be related to the audio format, please let me know. Another challenge with the first Shortwave Radiogram is sending this email to the approximately one thousand listeners on the VOA Radiogram email list. The VOA Outlook-based email system had a limit of 400 emails, so I sent them in groups of 400, 400, remainder. The radiogram@verizon.netis actually administered by AOL Mail, so we will learn how many recipients they tolerate. If this email comes to you from an address other than radiog...@verizon.net, please continue to use radiog...@verizon.net for emails to Shortwave Radiogram. To keep things simple, the first VOA Radiogram will all be in MFSK32. It will include six images. Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram program 1, 25 June 2017, all in MFSK32 centered on 1500 Hz:
