eQSL Radio Harmony

 Nice eQSL has arrived yesterday from the new free radio station Radio Harmony. This station is now broadcasting on the frequency of 6375 kHz. Quality oldies, jazz and opera music are in their shows. Initially Harmony was using 5775 kHz, but there also CW navigational warnings from RCV utility station of Sevastopil, temporarily occupied by russia, were making QRM sometimes. So, this frequency change is a good solution, in my opinion.
