How to Listen to ktwr.org Radio Programs After the Frequency Changes

To keep listening after the frequency update, use the station's latest 《电台节目时间表》 (Radio Program Schedule) as your single source of truth. ktwr.org states that starting October 25, 2026, the broadcast frequencies and times of some programs will be adjusted, and it directs listeners to the newest schedule to make sure they can still catch their preferred shows. Before that date, current listings (for example, the Yunnan-dialect program Luke the Doctor on shortwave 25 meters, 11925 kHz, Mondays at 8:30 p.m.) still apply, but you should confirm each program against the updated table rather than relying on an old bookmark or printed list.

Step 1: Open the current schedule on ktwr.org

Go to ktwr.org and look for the schedule link labeled 《电台节目时间表》, which appears alongside the notice about the frequency adjustment. This page is where the station publishes the revised times and shortwave frequencies. If you previously saved a direct link to a program or an older schedule, reopen it from the site so you are reading the post-adjustment version.

Expected result: you have the updated table open and can see which programs have moved.

Step 2: Identify your program by language and title

ktwr.org organizes its offerings by language and program name, so match both before you tune in. The site's "今日好节目" (Today's Good Programs) section lists Mandarin-language shows such as:

• 天路导向
• 妇女之光
• 诗情画意
• 今日灵粮
• 渔歌晚唱
• 神记得他们
• 勇士兴起
• 从绝望到盼望

Other languages are listed separately. For example, Luke the Doctor (《路加医生》) is described as broadcast in the Yunnan dialect, and there is also a Uyghur-language program. Because the adjustment affects only "some programs," check your specific show's row rather than assuming everything shifted.

Expected result: you know the exact program title and language you are looking for.

Step 3: Read the frequency and time from the updated row

In the schedule, note two values for your program: the shortwave meter band and kilohertz (for example, "25米 11925千赫") and the day and local time (for example, "每周一傍晚8点30分"). The meter band is a label for a range; the kilohertz figure is the precise frequency you enter on your radio. Times on the site are given in the station's listed format, so confirm whether the schedule notes a time zone before you set an alarm.

Expected result: you have a specific frequency in kHz and a specific day/time to try.

Step 4: Tune a shortwave radio and verify reception

Set your receiver to the listed kHz value (or select the meter band and fine-tune to the stated frequency), point an external antenna if you have one, and listen at the scheduled time. Shortwave reception varies with distance, time of day, and atmospheric conditions, so if the signal is weak on the first attempt, try again on another scheduled airing or adjust your antenna position. The site also offers "点击收听" (click to listen) links on some program items, which is the simpler option when a program is available online.

Expected result: you hear the program, or you confirm the frequency is correct but conditions are poor and plan a retry.

Common sticking points

• Using an old schedule. The October 25, 2026 notice means pre-adjustment frequencies may no longer work for affected programs. Always re-check the current table.
• Confusing meter band with frequency. "25米" tells you the band; "11925千赫" is what you tune. Enter the kHz number.
• Assuming all programs moved. The notice says only some programs are adjusted, so verify your own show instead of changing everything.
• Missing the language variant. A program name alone may not be enough—Luke the Doctor, for instance, is identified as Yunnan-dialect, so confirm you are looking at the right language row.
• Ignoring time zone. If the schedule does not state a zone, cross-check with the program page or a known airing before relying on the time.

If you want more than listening

The site also lists a 每日祷告 (Daily Prayer) section, described as a prayer group of more than 60,000 intercessors praying for different countries' women and for men's needs, plus a 代祷园地 (Intercession Corner) where visitors can submit prayer requests. These are separate from the broadcast schedule but are part of what ktwr.org offers alongside its radio programs.
