Reception reports sent will be replied with a numbered, special QSL card: RAE-ARGENTINA TO THE WORLDCC5551000 CABAArgentinaCORTINA MUSICALToday we have a special show on the violent conflict surrounding the city of Mosul, In Iraq, that directly or indirectly affects the Middle East.AUDIO N.1In the small city of Hassan Sham, some 30 kilometers northeast from Mosul, the scars left by the heavy fighting with ISIS are evident.The city was recently liberated by the Iraqi Army and the Kurdish Peshmerga, at the cost of its total destruction.The landscape is terrifying, and it’s very hard to get into. At control posts, just before reaching Hassan Sham from Erbil, the military advice never to drive away from the asphalt line, as there’re still many mines to deactivate.Once through, one reaches a massive refugee camp.Al Ghad is an independent radio station that provokes the Islamic State by airing anything from pop music to beauty advice and football news.It broadcasts from Erbil, the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan. All staff prefer to keep their location secret for security reasons.AUDIO No. 2“The project of the radio, one of its directors say started in 2015, few months after Daesh took over Mosul. Radio became one of the few ways of communicating for those who remain in the city...Al Ghad is the only of its kind...we faced many risks to reach areas where relay stations were placed...many times we successfully blocked Al-Bayan, the Califate’s radio and we even used their frequencies. It wasn’t a very continuous broadcast at first, but with success, came 24-hour constant broadcasting”.The program “I Am A Citizen”, allows listeners to inform what is happening in the areas under control of the Islamic State...here are some of the phone calls made women to the Station:-I can’t sleep no more...they died right in front of me, everything leads to death here, three brothers died on the same day...where something like that happens??-In our neighborhood Daesh bombs houses of the civilian population...today a house with two families was blasted…AUDIO No. 3The director says he thinks people believes in the station: “I notice due to the way they talk to us...I feel they have a lot of trust in us”. And we received also some threats by jihadists, but this only boosts our listenership’s numbers.CORTINA MUSICALAnd we continue in the region of Mosul.The Islamic State has lost propaganda capacity after losing several media outlets to Iraqi troops advancing into their territory.According to sources, 70% of ISIS media centers were destroyed in Mosul.Omar Salahaldin, an information expert from the Baghdad University, assured that propaganda was a vital part in the Islamic State’s plan to control the area and establish a caliphate.Some of that propaganda system included Al Bayan Radio, weekly magazine Al Nabaa, and had giant screens in the streets of Mosul where their propaganda was also disseminated.AUDIO No. 4Al Bayan has been practically set apart by the military, but it still airs some content every now and then.ISIS was just about to set up a TV channel, but Iraki bombings supported by the US-led international coalition prevented that from happening.They have a news-gathering agency, Amaq, that keeps vindicating terrorist acts around the world, but they have to change internet suppliers as companies keep shutting down their website.The Iraqis deem a priority to control those communication centers, as they want to cut off contacts between ISIS and their cells.AUDIO No. 5On February 27, ISIS suspended the broadcast of their radio AL Bayan in Mosul, due to the advance of the Iraqis in the western part of the city.Nonetheless, that radio station has again broadcast on and off, with content encouraging Jihad and verses of the Koran.Iraqi Police said Al Bayan was seized a month ago, and its gear captured.Terrorists still broadcast via a mobile transmission device, but Al Mahmadaui promised the Iraqi troops will locate and bomb that also.The offensive began last October 17, and has the goal of capturing Mosul and the other lands controlled by the radical group that began its dominion by taking over Ninive province in mid 2014.

It had been also called Malvinas Argentinas and Radio Phoenix, when it was originally established in the 1920s.24-hour news stations are successful in various countries, but so far, in Argentina, there’s nothing like that.In Brazil, for instance, the prestigious CBN, Brazilian News Central, is third in ratings in the South American giant.The oldest broadcaster of this kind is New York’s AM1010 WIns, that marked 50 years broadcasting only news in 2015.CORTINA MUSICALWe have now very sad news, that will be a blow to everybody linked to the world of shortwaves.Reverend José Holowaty died last March 26, as Swedish DXer Henrik Klemetz reports to us.Holowaty’s characteristic voice was transmitted via the now defunct KGEI Short Wave station in San Francisco, US.AUDIO No. 6Holowaty had been living in Paraguay, where he created Radio Broadcasting America.On the remarkable site: programasdx.com, there’s a file by Rubén Margenent from KGEI.On July 31, 1994, KGEI, the Voice of Friendship was coming off the air for good.But a little earlier, in 1991, they had broadcast programs tailored for DXers. The segments were only five minutes long, but they were aired several times a day. On 1305, 0335, 0705 on 9615 kHz and 0005 on 15280 kHz, produced and hosted by Samuel A. Ramírez and Benito J. Quintana, with talk about topics picked up from a book called “Shortwave Radio Listening with the experts”.On this edition you’ll hear makes reference to the QSL card. It’s hosted by the late José Holowaty, who introduces the show and informs listeners they are tuned in on KGEI.CORTINA MUSICALLet’s move on now to Short Wave news of international broadcasters.France’s RFI launched the third edtion of the prize “RFI Interview in Spanish”, for Latin American and Caribbean students of journalism.This contest is open between March 22 and May 21 2017, aimed at journalism students below the age of 30.The winner will be announced on Wednesday, June 7, in the context of the Latin American and Caribbean week in France.Journalism schools are invited to present a candidate via email to : premio.reportaje@rfi.fr.Until May 21, they can submit a radio interview of up to 20 minutes, as well as a proposal for an interview to carry out in Paris.A jury integrated by RFI journalists will analyze candidates’ work and chose the winner, that will be announced at the Paris America show of June 7, 2017.The prize is a paid internship at the Spanish-language newsroom of RFI in Paris, during 2017, with all expenses covered.This comest few months before France 24 launches its Spanish-language version next September.RFI and France 24, lets’ recall, are both part of State-ran media conglomerate France Médias Monde.Last year, the winner...
