Hi,
There are a few listings for Israel broadcasts to North America on www.primetimeshortwave.com . I would like to receive it out of curiosity for their news on Ariel Sharon. Each time in the past two weeks that I tried to tune in, I haven't picked it up. The schedule on primetimeshortwave can be confirmed he http://israelradio.org/sw.htm (although I just emailed the primetimeshortwave maintainer to note that a frequency listed for North America appears to be targeted to Africa).

Has anyone had luck receiving an English broadcast from Israel?

They can be heard here most every time I try.

Check the 2000 broadcast on 7545.

I can currently hear their Russian transmission on 7520 at 2120.

Depends on your listening location and also when you can listen. For
the past few months I've not been able to copy their broadcasts when I
am home to listen - which is their 0430 transmission (8:30 pm here on
the left coast). Keep trying and in the meanwhile there is always
[pardon the following blasphemy] their webfeed......just don't get so
dependent on the web that you forget to turn on your radio from time
to time.

Sirius Satellite Channel 140

News - a round up of the day's news and current affairs from Jerusalem

I thought you needed a subscription to listen to Sirius.

Yes, as well as a dedicated satellite radio.

Does Israel still use a frequency around 11603 khz for English language
broadcasts. I know there is one around 7500 or so.

You have a choice. You can listen ''free'' (most days) on a $500
radio with a 50 foot antenna, or, you can listen for $13/month on a
$20 dollar radio with a bean bag size antenna.

The content is the same, but there's big difference in audio quality
and link robustness.

There are at least 2 kinds of shortwave listener. One just likes
fishing for stations and doesn't care abgout content. The other is
interested in the voices from afar. Some of us are a little of both
and have the widest possible range of receiving options.

I picked up Kol Israel from Tel Aviv on 7545 at 0120
