Re: [HCDX] NRK 1314 currently off the air

[Jorma Mantyla <jmantyla@xxxxxxxxxx>]

NRK website www.nrk.no says: 

"Europakanalen legges ned 1. juli 2006. 
En ny Været til sjøs-kanal kan høres via radio og Thor 2-
satellitten."

This means that the Europakanal-service was discontinued
on July 1.  The NRK web-site indicates that 1314 kHz is not any more 
listed.  The only active AM-stations in Norway are now Troms/Ingöy 153
kHz, Vigra 630 kHz, Röst 675 kHz and Svalbard 1485 kHz.

The Norwegian dx-listeners' club confirms the discontinuation
of Europakanalen on 1314 kHz:
