First B23 Frequency Plus B23 Updates

The B23 season i.e. the winter season of international broadcasting is fast approaching.It will be as usual  from last sunday of October i.e.October 29th of 2023 and will last  upto last saturday of March i.e..March 30th with minor adjustments of a few hours in case of a few countries..

First B23 Frequency...I got..

It is KBS World Radio English to India  on 9630kHz replacing 9785kHz at the start of B23 season(winter) i.e.from October 29th of 2023 during 1400-1600utc.This information was posted recently on KBS World Radio Website and forwarded by Alokesh Gupta(VU3BSE), my first radio pen friend from New Delhi on facebook.Thanks for the tip,

It has generated the necessary initial spark to light the B23 monitoring fire in me in big way.

Here are a few more B23 updates effective October,29,2023 To March 30,2023

Radio Romania International English

After recent cut in transmission hours in Radio Romania International in all services,in their B23 season too for India on analog mood only one ..i.e.half hour slot..one frequency

0630-0658utc 21470kHz

 though  this transmission is targetted towards Australia can be well heard here

But transmission in DRM  mood to India is there..

0400-0456utc 15260kHz

And another interesting point to be noted how will be reception on 7325kHz (anloag ) during 0100-0156utc here.Though this transmission is directed to North America East Coast, it was earlier for several winter seasons well heard here in my location in India.But during last winter seson B22,there was heavy noise and nothing audible as such.

Adventist World Radio(AWR) Wavescan

I think in B23 seaon only possible frequency of listening to AWR's Global DX Program on air in our region will be as follows..as usual on sundays

1530-1600utc on 15530kHz Via Agat,Guam(100kW)

More observations/reports,more updates  etc from time to time.
