Re: [IRCA] 774kHz Fiji
Hi Patrick,
The transmitter is on Kadavu Island, near the city of Namara, per
information I found on the Web this weekend. There's quite a bit of
high-rez satellite photography available, too, through Google Earth for
this particular part of Fiji. However, I didn't spot any transmitter towers
(perhaps it's a wire strung between two coconut trees :^)
I can see how the signal would be attenuated to the north-northeast though,
as it would travel across some mountainous terrain before reaching open
ocean.

Nick,
Thanks for the info. 2.5 KW? I should be hearing it here. I wonder where
the TX site is. The 2.5 KW does not seem to get out this way all that
well. I will check 774 a bit later tonight. With the solar numbers
higher, maybe it will knock JOUB out.
73,
Patrick
