Delta on ollut useita viikkoja pois radioaalloilta. Perjantai-iltana 8.4 ja lauantaina 9.4 myös illalla Radio Delta International on ollut lähetyspuuhissa taajuudella 6020 khz. Lauantaina olikin sitten kaksi tuntia kestänyt Suomi kattaus. Äänitys löytyy täältä:

Vinkkasin eilen kiireessä WOR/Nordx-jäseniä nopsaa siitä että DRI oli nyt äänessä! Muua radioamatööri ei tietysti ymmärtänyt koko viestiä eli kehotusta avata radio DRI-taajuudelta 6005 kHz. Se synnytti jo hieman lisäviestintää, mutta nyt asiaa kommentoi itse tohtori Hansjörg Biener!
"I do not see the WoR-group as a short message service and do not hurry to follow up on an "alert". Still in employment for some more years, listening to the radio and collecting information for the news columns of Radio-Kurier is not my full time activity. In fact, I very often lag behind quite a number of messages. To make best use of the group, I expect contributors to be as informative and precise as possible.

I understand Kari Kallio is a very enthusiastic supporter of Delta Radio International who has even organized some programming on the station. But even then his "clear message to open the radio on 6005 kHz after an absence of 6 months!" makes me wonder whether he meant "6 weeks"
My file on Delta Radio International contains these earlier messages:
220625 Delta Radio Int. made a short testing transmission at 18:30 UTC on 6005 kHz - nice S9 signal here in the North. DRI has been off the air for over a month! Let's wish for a prompt but smooth revival for this wonderful radio station. Kari Kallio
220703 so 11:39 We hear nonstop music on 6020 kHz - no announcements - no IDs. Maybe they are testing today a new transmitter or a new antenna or both. The signal has been in the SDXF Southern remote test Kiwi SDR receiver between S7-9 but here in Finland much weaker. We believe this is Delta Radio International. Its transmitter was also in use yesterday evening on 6005 kHz when Radio Monique was there on air then. They co-operate nowadays more or less. Kari Kallio
220717 so What happened to Radio Delta, 6020 kHz?  Radio Delta International has been out the air for several weeks, their operator has been ill, and is not responding to Whatsapp, does anyone know anything about him? Manuel Méndez
No. DRI radio silence has been total. WA-messages go to the studio mobile phone which has not been opened in several weeks. As far as we know it concerns sc hard covid. We Finns are of course worried for a reason. DRI has become a good friend of the several Finnish listeners. Kari Kallio
220812 DRI on air on 6005 kHz just now (ca 1645) Aart been very sick in many months -- now recovering! Great! Kari Kallio
220812 6005, Delta Radio International, Elburg, 1834-2010, pop songs in English, id. "Radio Delta", English comments, from 1900-1930 strong QRM from Radio Taiwan International via Kostinbrod with French program, but Radio Delta heard weak in the background with songs and identification. Strong QRM again at 2000 from Radio Taiwan with Russian program. 32433. Manuel Méndez ES
now at 1900 an half of hours break but DRI DRI returns after that - stay on line then Kari Kallio
Unscheduled broadcasts of Radio Delta International: 6005 kHz via Elburg, August 12
from 1955: 6005 ELB 001 kW, non-dir to WeEu English. Good signal via SDR Heimiswil, Switzerland
Probably Radio Delta International is on air from 1600UT.

..johon sitten vastasin 23.10.22 -Thanks to Hansjörg for the thorough analysis that included also DRI's tests that we didn't have even information about. You are really in the know about everything that is happening in the DX world! DRI's charm is crystallized in its central character Aart, who radiates kindness towards each of his listeners all over the world! Many of us listeners in Finland have also been able to feel this warmth, for which DRI even organized its own program Finnish Hour, mainly for the music made in Finland as well the German Hour for the German music. There is a demonstrably large group of DRI listeners just in Germany! According to my own notes, the last real DRI radio program before yesterday was on 12.8. at 16:30 on 6005 kHz. Although it was not the so-called Finland- program, AB sent numerous greetings then just to Finland. What has worried us, the main means of communication, the WA-studio mobile phone, has been closed since almost spring, when the main character of the story fell ill. Against that backdrop, yesterday's surprise return of DRI was like a firework rocket for the show's fans elsewhere in the world. That's why I was in a hurry to tell the whole world about it also through WOR. A little before midnight, AB had sent me another message " Thanks for your report: We´ll meet again!". Maybe now there is enough strength to implement the big future plans for DRI that he already told me about in the spring. I am sure that DRI's loyal listener base will continue to support the station in the future, whatever it will be. I've often said about DRI that it often feels too good to be true! It is true! mfg Kari

Yllätys oli aikamoinen lauantaina 22.10.2022 kun Delta ilmestyi illalla taajuudelle 6005 khz. Edellisestä kerrasta onkin jo aikaa, joka oli 12.08. Kyseessä oli Aartin mukaan testilähetys ja sitä herkkua riitti pari, kolme tuntia.
Lähetyksessä tuli tervehdyksiä puolin ja toisin, kuuntelijoilta itse Mr. Deltalle ja päinvastoin. Kaikin puolin ilmeisen mieluinen tapaaminen pitkästä aikaa radioaalloilla. Toivottavasti seuraava kerta koittaa mieluummin ennemmin kuin myöhemmin. Ainakkin Aartin oma näkemys jatkosta oli lupauksia antava.
Illan ohjelmasta on tehty lyhyitä äänityksiä suomalaisten tervehdyksistä. Ne löytyvät GoogleDrivestä oheisesta linkistä. Klippien pitäisi avautua suoraan linkeistä, myöskään mitään kirjautumista pilvipalveluun ei tarvita. Mikäli linkkien avaamisessa on ongelmia, kannattaa kokeilla kopioida linkki leikepöydälle ja liittää se suoraan selaimen osoiteriville. Selaimien välillä näyttää olevan eroja. Microsoft Edgessä linkit avautuivat minulla suoraan, kun taas Safarissa voi joutua painamaan ensin Lataa nappia ja sen jälkeen Näytä. Myös eri käyttöjärjestelmien välillä voi olla eroja. Linkki avautuu näkymään, missä ovat sekä vuoden 2021 että 2022 äänitykset. Uusimmat äänitykset ovat 2022 -kansiossa lokakuun alla (10).

Without any prior notice, DRI tested 29.October on 6020 kHz by playing Dutch music and renewed station ID-jingles.
The Finnish "dart team" was however awake as always and began to report about the hearings to DRI's WA studio mobile phone and very soon it was answered.
Dj Aart said being then very busy and that he was working in the sc. engine room. He asked us to stay by the radios, because during the day they
were going to do tests with the new transmitter on two new frequences as well - "I´ll app you a message when we start to test!" The question was to make a short carrier wave test with a low power of 25 watts on the frequencies 11660 and 9710 kHz. The tests were quick and quiet. In Finland the signal strengths were S5-7 but DRI`s own observations via Irish and Italian remote receivers were better S7-9. Aart reported being very satisfied with the outcome of the transmitter testings!

PS. The question is whether DRI plans to start broadcasting now on the 25 meter band as well. Namely. DRI's previous intentions to start broadcasting
on 41 meters were never materialized.

Tänään 11. Joulukuuta oli Deltalla testilähetys, joka kesti n. 1,5 h. Vakiotaajuuden 6020 khz lisäksi testattiin taajuutta 11730 khz. Se kuuluikin hyvin läpi koko Suomen aina Lapin perukoille saakka. Tehoja Aartin mukaan 400 w.
Deltalta on luvassa joulun aikaan "Christmas Show" ja "Finnish Hour". Hyvää kannattaa siis odottaa!
Aartilla piteli testauksessa kiireitä, mutta terkkuja tuli Suomeen KKX:lle ja JMN:lle. Klippi-linkki tallennukseen:

Hi Kari,
It takes for us some time to recover, but we are back and will startup the transmission. I am very pleased with your reception report!!
It gives us a good impression.
Some extra details:
- 6020 kHz is still running with Christmas (25.12 and 26.12) from the early morning!
- 11730 kHz will be also on air with Christmas from the early morning!
Maybe we will also test 9760, but that's not for sure. We are looking for a good covering of Europe with our transmitters.
At this moment I prefer 11730, but that's not for sure...........
 
I hope to meet you guys with Christmas on the airwaves.....maybe the WA gang from Finland can make some nice teasers with greetings for our DRI Xmas show?"
Regards,
Delta Radio International, NL

Dear Kari,
After a period of sickness and struggling with Covid we are back on the airwaves. If the answer from a QSL has taken a little longer, we are sorry.
We will start up with a new format and new transmitters. Coming periode you can find more details on our website. We enclosed our eQSL, thanks for listening and your nice reception report!
To develop our weekly DX show on Sunday morning, we would like to ask if you can create a personal message for all the DX'ers and listeners (in your own language is also fine for us). This can simply be done with a telephone or another device, create a MP3 and sent it to our email. Together we can create a Radio Delta Shortwave community, i hope you will be a part of our free radio show.
Subscribe yourself to our YouTube channel, you will immediately see all new videos.
On our website you can post your reception report, it will be published on the world map.
Stay tuned!
Regards,
Aart
