Re: [IRCA] 1st TAs with new radio



Hi Stan, it is good that your QTH is quiet enough for LW.  Here's a link to
what likely still is on LW from Europe. http://emwg.info/

I'd expect your 153 to be Algeria. Look for them also on 252 with Ireland.
I don't DX LW so my appologies if the Algerians are no longer.
