Cue Kuwait...



Another station to tune for is Radio Kuwait's English language service. They produce a programme we can hear in Europe and North America on 15540kHz from 1800 to 2100 UTC. 

A whole three hour segment in English from an international broadcaster is always a rare treat, and programmes include news and thoughts on Islam. Most interesting for me are the Today in History features, The Press Today and the various music the station plays.

Richard Cooke tells me he got a huge bundle of items from Radio Kuwait including an impressive looking QSL card resplendent with logos, buildings and some important looking Arab gentlemen wearing their traditional headdress. The email address given on their current programme schedule is kwtfreq@media.gov.kw or if you prefer snail mail the postal address is Radio Kuwait, PO Box 967, Safat, 13010, Kuwait.
