Hello,

Once again, I have compiled a 'universal' list of BBC World Service
broadcast frequencies. This list should be of interest to SWLs who
either travel frequently or who live in a region no longer targeted by
BBC shortwave transmitters. This list was compiled directly from data
posted on the BBC World Service web site (www.bbc.co.uk).

The list below is sorted by time (UTC). It contains no regional
references - it is left to the reader to discover appropriate
frequencies. As a universal list, I offer no comments as to signal
quality. I downloaded the data from the BBC web site and manually
transcribed it into a spreadsheet that I used to sort the data.

Please note the following:

1. The list is compiled by hand. The BBC does not post this information
in this form on their web site. I think they should.

2. For pratical reasons, I have chosen a 1 hour granularity. Changes
on the half or quarter hour are ignored.

3. The list ignores weekday/weekend designations.

4. Broadcasts on frequencies below the 90 Metre band are not included.

5. There are almost certainly errors in content, please accept my
apologies. Please consider this merely as a guide to finding suitable
frequencies.

I find this list very helpful, I hope some of you do too.

Good listening and good luck.
