A farewell to Kol Israel

After 65 years of broadcasting, the station suspended its last shortwave broadcasts in Farsi to Iran at the beginning of July: http://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2013/07/a-farewell-to-kol-israel.html The longtime shortwave listeners may remember they used to broadcast overseas programs in English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Georgian, Persian, Hungarian, Romanian, Russian, as well as a home service program in Hebrew and external service in other Jewish languages: Yiddish, Bucharian, Ladino, Mograbit. They also had a DX-Program in English, hosted by Ben Dalfen, aired on Sundays. Their broadcasts in Russian, Hungarian and Georgian were a subject to jamming.
