Many thanks to SRAA contributor Dan Greenall, who shares the following recording and notes:

Broadcaster: Radio Payam

Date of recording: July 10, 2026

Starting time: 2049 UTC

Frequency: 15.615 MHz

Receiver location: Qatar

Receiver and antenna: KiwiSDR with MLA-30+ loop antenna

Notes: A station called Radio Payam (Radio Message) has been heard recently on 15615 kHz transmitting from Woofferton, UK, with content critical of the Iranian government. The broadcasts are in Persian, and their schedule seems to run from 1700 to 2100 hours UTC.

This unofficial station provides a contrast to the Iranian state-run Radio Payam, signaling a new source of anti-Tehran content.

This recording was made starting at 2049 UTC on July 10, 2026. using a KiwiSDR located in Qatar, where, oddly enough, QRM from a bubble jammer was considerably less than when listening on similar receivers throughout Europe.

“Radio Payam” is mentioned about the 4:36 mark of the recording, and the broadcast concludes at 9:46 when only the bubble jammer can be heard A couple of minutes later, the bubble jammer’s signal goes off the air.
