Re: [IRCA] Greenland-720

["Donald K. Kaskey" <kaskeyfamily@xxxxxxxxx>]

Reading the thread on KOLD-1425 with interest.  I'm probably one of the 
few NA dxers who have heard this station nightly.  In 1955-56 while 
stationed at Keflavik AFB, Iceland KOLD was almost always there with a 
decent signal.  Also heard another AFRTS station on 1594 from French 
Morocco with regularity.  From California in the 1976-78 period I 
remember I had a good het on 1425 a few nights when others on the WC 
were hearing the station but I never had audio.  We had a 250 watt AFRTS 
station at Keflavik, called TFK operating on 1484.  Don't remember 
seeing anyone reporting that one.
