Hi everybody,
I have a little Grundig short wave radio, YB 400PE type. I was wondering how to get Finnish radio stations on it. At the moment I can't get much of anything :? Talk radio would be good, like news programs, Finnish music would be nice or maybe even that 10 minute learn Finnish program. Thanks very much. -Luther

I have managed to pick up a station out of Stockholm before (from Kansas) so I am sure there is some way. I am not too good with my radio either :? so I would like to know also!

The listener in Massachusetts can hear Finland in the mornings 08.00-09.00 am EDT/EST on 15400 and (from Oct 31st) 17840 kHz. 17840 continues until 10 am. You may also try 11.00-12.00 am EDT/EST on 15400 (until Oct 30), on 13665 kHz (from Oct 31st). - The broadcasts are all in Finnish and (some) Swedish. English broadcasts were taken off the air in 2002.

If you can't listen finnish channels on FM, try searching MW, there is Radio Finland.
