Many thanks to SRAA contributor Liam Spencer, who shares the following recording and notes:
Broadcaster: Polish Radio External Service (Via WRN and WRMI)
Date of recording: September 26, 2025
Starting time: 02:59 UTC
Frequency: 9.455 MHz
Reception location: Berthoud, Colorado, USA
Receiver and antenna: Sihuadon D-808 with telescopic antenna
Notes: After the withdrawal of most Overcomer Ministry broadcasts in the Summer of 2025. WRMI began relaying the World Radio Network North American stream to fill the empty hours. While this is great for many shortwave listeners, as we get to hear stations that used to broadcast on shortwave again. WRMI isn't making any money from broadcasting the World Radio Network, and it is unknown how long these will last. On September 26th, I recorded the Polish Radio External Service, as they became part of my daily listening thanks to WRMI. I used a cassette tape to record the broadcast. Sometime during the recording, a few seconds of the broadcast were cut as I had to flip over the tape to continue recording.
