Many thanks to SRAA contributor Bruce MacDonald, who shares the following recording and notes:
Broadcaster: Radio Sofia, Bulgaria
Date of recording: Unknown
Starting time: Unknown
Frequency: not recorded
Recorded in Hounslow, west London
Receiver and antenna: Sony portable stereo radio cassette player
Notes: A snippet from an old-school DX programme from the English service of Radio Sofia, Bulgaria. This comprises mainly listening tips for rare stations as heard in Europe. Some mention made of the time of year and solar cycle conditions as Solar Cycle 21 was drawing down to minimum, and the need for a good antenna.
I was a teenager when I made this recording, still new to the geeky hobby of shortwave listening, so I didn't log the time, frequency or date of the recording. I recorded this on a Sony radio-cassette player which had a shortwave band on the radio and had yet to save up for a Sony ICF-SW7600D.
Radio Sofia, Bulgaria: Circa 1984-1985
