After four unsuccessful attempts over the last couple of months today
Radio208 finally began broadcasting on shortwave on 5805 kHz. The American
built 250 Watts transmitter for 5805 kHz blew up three times in the process.
Then a new British built 250 Watt transmitter was purchased, but it turned
out that the maximum power it could radiate was 164 Watt. However it’s a
fine transmitter, so this transmitter has now successfully been put into
operation – running about 75 Watts at present; will be increased to 150
Watts later.
The transmitter site is Hvidovre, a suburb of Copenhagen and the aerial is a
dipole.
This is the first time for more than 30 years that shortwave broadcasting is
being carried out from Copenhagen. Radio Denmark ceased broadcasting from
its Herstedvester site on in February 1990.Radio208 still continuous broadcasting on 1440 kHz (500 W) from Ishøj, also
a suburb of Copenhagen.Both transmitters (1440 and 5805 kHz) are running 24/7.
