Dear listener,
Encore’s usual broadcast on 6070 kHz at 19:00 UTC Friday will continue to be simulcast on 3955 kHz.
It is, of course, the final repeat of the previous Saturday’s show.
We are also trying 3955 at 21:00 UTC on Sundays – when it will be mostly dusk or dark and so good propagation is expected.

Our email is [email protected]. Informal reception reports as well as those requesting eQSL welcome.
The website is www.tumbril.co.uk where we show transmission times and frequencies, the playlist for the most recent programme, more information about Radio Tumbril, and the email link.
This week the programme contains the usual mix of old and new. We have some Haydn; Le Matin, Elgar; first symphony, Brahms; piano Quintet, and Poulenc; two motets.
Contemporary compositions by Beth Anderson; Piano and strings, and Matthew Embleton: solo lute, add to the mix. There is even some organ music by Vidor which might bring back a few memories.
I hope you can join me to enjoy beautiful sounds being bounced off the sky.
