Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Dan Greenall, who shares the following recordings and notes:Broadcaster: Radio Prague: 1970 and 1999Frequency: 7.345 MHzReception location: Ancaster and Thamesford, Ontario, CanadaReceiver and antenna: Hallicrafters S-52 and Drake SW-8 using a longwire antennaNotes: Here is a brief recording of Radio Prague in Czechoslovakia circa 1970. They are heard with their interval signal and announcement in English. The frequency was 7345 kHz. The second recording was made June 22, 1999 at 1727 hours UTC on 21745 kHz, with their interval signal and multi-lingual ID's, as the external service of Czech Radio. In 1970, I received a beautiful cloth bookmark from Radio Prague, and I gave it to my mother as she liked to read, and I felt it would be a way to include her in my newfound hobby of shortwave listening. She used it for the next 46 years, and I recovered it in 2016 after her passing, still in amazingly good condition.

Misadventures in Music with Ian Prowse & Mick Ord

There aren't too many bands from the 70's and 80''s who're still producing compelling new music and not just replaying their biggest hits, but then Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark have always ignored the prevailing musical trends and ploughed their own furrow, which is why the Wirral band's blend of classic Synthpop and contemporary Electronic Dance Music is still wowing audiences.They're smack bang  in the middle of a European tour and their last album The Punishment of Luxury was greeted with widespread critical acclaim, but Andy McCluskey says OMD's next release, Bauhaus Staircase, will be their last.   No, really.  He's our special guest in this month's Misadventures in Music podcast, with Ian Prowse and Mick Ord.Andy talks candidly about OMD's history, their musical influences and looks to the future with optimism as fans await the release of Bauhaus Staircase, their 14th studio album. A big thanks to Roy and Clare from the Podcafe in Liverpool for use of their recording studios.

On January 4, 1993, independent Slovak Republic launched the radio foreign service. On this occasion, the then general director of public Slovak Radio speaks about the idea behind keeping foreign service going also after the split of Czechoslovakia. The first section to start broadcasting abroad was the Slovak language one. Its editor Elena Seeber talks about its roots in the history of foreign broadcast of Czechoslovak radio that started in 1936. Speaking to colleagues from the English section of Radio Prague, we recall memories of joint projects that were run after the "velvet divorce".

One year after the fall of the Berlin Wall, radio colleague Kim Andrew Elliott jumped in my car and we toured some of the famous Eastern European radio stations. We went to Budapest, Prague and Berlin sending faxes in advance in the hope of getting the station tour. In Prague we were given a grand tour of Radio Prague and heard from several people what it was like to work in the English section. We also went to see Radio Free Europe (photo) operating from the old Czech parliament building. Studios were inside mobile vans on the floor of the building because permanent changes to the building were not allowed. I thought this edition of the programme was lost because the tape went missing. Luckily a CD copy has survived. Nice to hear the voice of the late Olrich Chip (Peter Skala) once again.
