Sound of Hope or Xi Wang Zhi Sheng from Falun Gong
The broadcasts began in 2004 by broadcasting uncensored news to the People's Republic of China.
Who is Sound of Hope?
According to the official version, the Sound of Hope radio station or "Xi Wang Zhi Sheng" in Chinese (Sound, or voice, of hope) is an international radio station broadcasting in Chinese. The station has an AM and FM radio network that has storefronts and officially licensed or leased time slots on legal transmitters in cities across North America.
This activity is the tip of the iceberg. “Sound of Hope” is the radio arm of Falun Gong, a sect in San Francisco that wants to conquer communist China through clandestine shortwave transmitters.

According to its leaders, "Sound of Hope" provides the latest international news, enriches various cultures, creates a wonderful entertainment platform, and brings you new ideas for a better future. ".

The programs are broken down into 5 channels

A major tenant of Radio Taiwan International.
In its early days, "Sound of Hope" used RTI's transmitter center in Huwei: Facilities that had been built in the 1970s, under the direction of the Ministry of Defense which then owned CBS and with the help and funding of the American army. Aid granted as part of a strategy to provide the Chinese with information uncensored by the Communist Party.
The transmitters and antennas, directed towards mainland China, were used under a rental contract for 4 to 5 hours a day on a multitude of frequencies to escape jamming.
Voice of America and Radio Free Asia did the same.
"Sound of Hope" and hiding.
Radio Taiwan International's equipment was aging and RTI needed to cut costs. This cost reduction involved a reorganization of its fleet of transmitters.
In May 2013, Sound of Hope learned that the transmitter centers in Tannai and Huwei will be closed and the antennas will be destroyed.
SOH suspects the sudden decision could portend political pressure from mainland China.
On the side of the authorities in Huwei, the dismantling of the historic site is justified by the imminent creation of a new station for the TGV whose line already runs along the site.
On the side of RTI have announced that the transmitter of Danshui sees its capacities increased in compensation.
The diplomatic battles and pressure on Taiwan by the US, where Falungung has strong political support, went unheeded. Especially since RTI is an independent association.
A resort in nature.
In the absence of an agreement with RTI, Sound of Hope stated that "without RTI, the airwaves will still go to China via our own equipment"
Since that date, Sound of Hope has officially gone underground and no longer reveals its location(s).
One thing is certain, the transmitters are numerous, but of low power. They can be dispersed in several places since the reception of the signal can be achieved by the satellite link.
The transmission power is very low, the transmitters are as big as an amateur radio station. Some speak of a 100 watt transmitter, a big banana box. The antenna cannot be located.
Everything confirms that the station is still broadcasting from the island of Taiwan. Officially, we don't know anything.
Charges in Thailand.
A procedure was launched in 2018, in Thailand against the office of correspondents of Sound of Hope. According to the lawyer for the defendants, the case is based on the testimony of a mysterious witness who claims to have seen a 30-meter antenna being erected.
SOH insists that such an antenna has never been installed, as it is not needed for shortwave broadcasting. SOH also denied any involvement in "illegal broadcasting".
The Beijing jamming.
The broadcasts are regularly jammed by transmitters from the People's Republic of China. The jamming commonly used, is a continuous crash and detonation noise, also known as "Firedragon" or "Firedrake". It is also traditional or folk Chinese music that is looped and played continuously during the broadcast.
Sound of Hope varies its frequency slightly to reduce its effects.
