[IRCA] Daytime Band Scan-- Songtan, South Korea

[d1028gary@xxxxxxxxxxx]

For those interested, here is a very detailed AM Band Scan from Chris Kadlec in Songtan, South Korea (from Facebook): 
Songtan, Korea Daytime Bandscan 


Here's an AM daytime bandscan at my FM site in Songtan, Korea, about 30 miles south of my main AM site here in Seoul. While there are 61 stations heard at my FM site, my inner-city AM site isn't as lucky and has only half that number (though a few more than 200 regular stations at night). My local 972 causes some silent noise across the band at this site, though the station doesn't turn on til mid-afternoon while its sister station 1170 turns off about the same time. Others are also part-time, including a few jammers and Pyongyang stations. 

The attached map is for location purposes only and shows the local FM stations. I have yet to make time for an AM station map in the future, but it's not so impressive.
