[IRCA] 828 MW Netherlands/ atmospheric conditions

[bill kral <jwkral@xxxxxxxx>]

 1.Dutch Website (All Legal Broadcasters in the Netherlands-titled in Dutch) 
reports that as of 10 -23-10 the frequency 828 MW has changed formats to old 
rock/pop and has resumed the handle and program format of the previous 1008 Khz 
station called Radio 10 
Gold.                                                                 2.On 
10-10-10 (coincidence?) a report was issued on atmospheric high pressure 
conditions around Western Europe causing unusual skip of distant radio signals 
from several countries to be reported in Holland. It does not specify if on AM 
or FM but does mention a reception report of a TV signal from the Faroeh Islands 
in the Atlantic. I must assume it was FM to go with the TV report but with the 
many (about 500) FM Transmitters in an area 2/3 the size of Vancouver 
Island,there isn't much open FM frequency for incoming skip to be received. If 
the skip was on AM then it has a strange parallel to the 1130 weather phenomenon 
which occured here in south west BC. LOL . Bill in BC
