SHORTWAVE
CUBA
Dave Kenny monitored Radio Habana Cuba during May 2026 and Dave's
observations so far form the schedule now showing in Latin America and the Caribbean on Shortwave.
GERMANY
Tom Kamp, A-DX IO
Group, reported the following on 13 May 2026 concerning Radio DARC: Contrary to expectations, the frequency change
implemented on May 3rd by Radio DARC to 6070 kHz has led to significant
reception problems in eastern and southern Germany. However, a marked
improvement was observed in the west. To resolve the current issues, the
editorial team has decided to temporarily switch back to 9670 kHz, writes
Rainer Englert, DF2NU, in a statement. They are working on a better solution.
"A transmission in the 41-meter band, around the frequency of 7380 kHz, is
being considered. Based on current findings, this could represent a compromise
to maintain stable reception under the given propagation conditions in both
eastern and western Germany during the summer," Englert explains. "We
ask for your understanding; we are working diligently to find the best solution".
Europe on Shortwave has been updated to show this latest change.

POLAND
Łukasz
Rzepecki reports that Radio Andrychów on 1584 kHz ended its broadcast on
mediumwave on 1 May 2026. This entry has been deleted in Europe on Mediumwave. This means there are just two Polish domestic radio stations left on mediumwave on 963 and 1602 kHz.
