[HCDX] Radio Luxembourg & Germany callsigns
Hi Noel,
This site:
http://www.dxinfocentre.com/lw.htm
shows LXAA as the callsign for the LW frequency.
None of these calls (LXA, LXAA) seems to be correct,
at least in 1958!. The ITU registered calls for
broadcasting are LXRA, LXRE, LXRF & LXRG.
The ITU register in 1958 offers other interesting
callsigns for broadcasting stations as these from
Germany (Federal Rep.):
DMR20, DMR25, 27, 28, 30 (bc & fixed sce.), 31, 32,
33,35,36,40,41,45,46,50,51,52,55,56,60 & 61 from
Nordenosterloog. DMR26 Muehlacker, DMR27 N.D.R &
W.D.R,
DMR29 Muenchen, DMR32 Bad Duerrheim, DMR251 Frankfurt
Main. All short wave, or some MW??
