External Services on Medium Wave British DX Club External Services of the World on Mediumwave includes schedules and information, and a frequency order list of external services May 2021 DX Guide External Services of the World on Mediumwave Contents updated: 12 May 2021 2 Introduction 3-30 External services on mediumwave by continent and country: 3-7 Europe 8-12 Africa 13-17 Middle East, East Mediterranean and the Caucasus 17-26 Asia 27-29 Americas 30-57 Frequency order list of external services on mediumwave Introduction This is a guide to external services broadcasting on mediumwave in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Caucasus, Asia and the Americas. It is compiled with the intention of highlighting some of the more interesting services and programmes for the DXer and mediumwave listener. Many external services originate from high-power transmitters and offer a good opportunity to hear and identify more distant stations on mediumwave, especially as the use of clear ID's and familiar interval signal tunes often makes it easier to pick them out on a crowded channel. This guide will be regularly updated and more will be added in future. If you have any corrections, additions, comments or suggestions that will help inprove things, then they are more than welcome. There may be some unintentional errors that have crept in whilst compiling this first edition, so any help in getting these put right would also be greatly appreciated.

BELARUS: RELIGIOUS FREEDOM SURVEY, OCTOBER 20201 By Olga Glace, Forum 18 Belarus correspondent Before the UN Human Rights Council Universal Periodic Review (UPR) of Belarus on 2 November, Forum 18 notes continuing violations of freedom of religion and belief and of interlinked freedoms of expression, association, and assembly. These have worsened amid widespread continuing protests against falsified results of the August 2020 presidential election, and against the regime's other serious violations of the human rights of the people it rules. After the regime's falsification of the August 2020 presidential election results and violence against people taking part in the ongoing protests, public events to pray for Belarus and for violence by the regime to end have increased. The regime has increasingly used Administrative Code Article 23.34 ("Violation of the procedure for organizing or conducting a mass event or demonstration") against those taking part in public prayer events.
