Daniel Sampson Prime Time Shortwave schedules include information about shortwave broadcasts in English. Initially the schedules were compiled by Daniel Sampson. Currently they are maintained by Ernest Riley in cooperation with Daniel. The schedules are available free at the Prime Time Shortwave home page at www.primetimeshortwave.com. On the home page, you can also subscribe to the e‑mail newsletter and receive notice of schedule updates. Radio Explorer reads Prime Time Shortwave schedules in the time‐ordered text format (time.txt files).
SWBC English‐language broadcast and program schedulesSWBC schedules used to include information about shortwave, mediumwave, and longwave broadcasts in English, as well as information about the programs being broadcast. The schedules were compiled by Mark J. Fine. Previously you could get free copies of SWBC schedules at the English Language Schedules Download page. Regrettably, SWBC schedules are no longer maintained. If you have SWBC schedules for previous seasons, here is how you can view them in Radio Explorer. The schedules were published as two zip archives, SW_DATA.ZIP and DX_ALT.ZIP. Extract files from the archives. You will get two files: SW_UPD.DBF, which is the broadcast schedule, and DX_UPD.DBF, which is the program schedule. To view the schedules, first open the broadcast schedule, and then open the program schedule. The program schedule data will be displayed along with the broadcast schedule data, as shown on this large screenshot. |
