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.

Thanks for confirming your reception. I tried both 7545 and 6280 at 2000 UTC and unfortuantely didn't hear even the faintest murmur. I'm curious if anyone on the U.S. west coast is receiving it. I'll email their engineering director.

Sorry I missed the transmission window. I'll give it a try if I remember
to listen at the right time.

Tuned in today and did not hear a thing on any of the above frequencies
just after 20:00 UTC. Maybe someone else up the coast can pick it up.
Conditions were OK today so maybe it just does not propagate here well
or my antennas just happen to be weak on those frequencies.

I'll have to give other broadcast times a try. I have picked up Israel
in the past and I believe it was during the day time.

I too have tried in the last few days without success and am also on
the left coast. Probably a propagation issue - have had problems with
other Mid-East broadcasters as well.
