Re: [Swprograms] 15565 WYFR/UK etc.

Robyn,

This still does not mean BBC on 15565 is relayed by WYFR. One simply follows
the other, as in many other cases of SW frequency usage. There is probably a
break in carriers between them, or they overlap. IHS Sheila either does not
know what is going on, or is not being specific, resulting in a misleading
answer. Here are all the current listing for 15565 in the HFCC B-04 schedule:

15565 1830 1930 47,48                          JUL  100 145             14     
031104 101104 D                  D   DTK DTK 18194
15565 1800 1945 27,28                          YFR  100 44              1234567
311004 270305 D                  USA YFR FCC  3902
15565 2100 2245 37,46                          YFR  100 87              1234567
311004 270305 D                  USA YFR FCC 15044
15565 0500 0700 19,29,39NW                     CYP  300 359             1234567
311004 270305 D                  G   BBC MER 18302
15565 0700 1800 28,29S,38E,39,40W              RMP  500 62              1234567
311004 270305 D                  G   BBC MER 18303

Note the last entry: RMP means the Rampisham, UK site is in use for BBC until
1800.

Regards, Glenn Hauser
