SW Radiogram for 29-30 July

From Kim Andrew Elliott:

Hello friends,

More broadcasters are making use of the 9400 kHz frequency from Space Line in Bulgaria. If you have ever considered producing your own radio program, either digital text or traditional voice, contact Space Line via spaceline.bg (I think Saturday 1630-1700 UTC is available!), or Radio Miami International via wrmi.net. (I do not work for or derive income from either transmission company.) 

This weekend, most of Shortwave Radiogram is in our usual MFSK32 mode, with five images. If reception is difficult, there is also one brief item from Radio Prague in Olivia 64-2000.

Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram, program 6, 29-30 July 2017, all in MFSK32 except where noted:

 1:31  Program preview
 2:44  China steps up efforts against unauthorized VPNs*
 8:25  Iran tests rocket capable of launching satellites*
13:01  Daimler CEO touts diesel car engines*
19:33  Olivia 64-2000: Czech Republic car production increases
23:57  MFSK32: Image* and closing announcements*

* with image
