To listen to either of our stations on a shortwave radio, see the schedules below. Our shortwave antennas are in Anchor Point, Alaska, and in Madagascar off the coast of Africa. Between the two of these, our programming can be heard in virtually every corner of the earth.
To pick up our programming over your shortwave radio, see the charts below. Shortwave schedules are based on Universal Time (UTC), otherwise known as Greenwich Mean Time, or the time in London. To simplify the time conversion, we have included a reference chart for four time zones for our United States friends.
Note: These times do not reflect the use of Daylight Savings Time. To learn more about the world clock, visit http://www.timeticker.com.
