Radio Jordan on 11960 kHz -- they use an ABB Infocom (aka Thales) HRS 8/4/1
two tower curtain array!

The site is capable of 1000 kw carrier power, but 2 x 500 kw transmitters
are typically fed into the antenna.
If you live in Maui, Hawaii USA -- Jordan comes in fine too.

Your receiver in Finland probably should have its attenuator turned on to
keep the innards of the set from being fried!
