Another very successful evening into Europe |
|
Tuesday, April 18 2023
Very nice report. Thanks for taking an interest in the low powered, shortwave stations in Europe, which otherwise are neglected by some.
World Music Radio on 5930 kHz is currently running 160 Watts. Radio Piepzender and Sunlite are broadcasting from Zwolle and Westdorpe which are not in neither the province of North Holland nor the province South Holland - but in the province Overijssel and in the province Zeeland - in the country called The Netherlands ... :-) Sunlite is running 200 Watts (perhaps 250 Watts) as far as I know. And from a very good transmitter site with excellent ground conductivity. Radio208 is not broadcasting from "Holland" - but from Hvidovre, Copenhagen - which is in Denmark. The power was recently increased from 75 Watts to 200 Watts. Plans are to improve the antenna, and so power will be increased to 300 Watts. Best 73s Stig Hartvig Nielsen, Denmark -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: Hard-Core-DX [mailto:hard-core-dx-bounces@hard-core-dx.com] På vegne af Volodya S Sendt: 18. april 2023 07:34 Til: wor; DXplorer@groups.io; odxa yg; Hard-Core-DX Emne: [HCDX] Another very successful evening into Europe Once again, I was very pleased to hear many low powered European hobby stations tonight, as well as some DRM transmissions not often heard from Masset, BC. My 450' Beverage, aimed due north once again produced great results! 73, Walt CHINA 17830, 0504-, CNR Apr 18 Some copy with frequent dropouts. // 17770 with near 100% copy. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC) DENMARK 5930, 0518-, World Music Radio Apr 18 Well, here they are with pop music, and a lot of splatter, of course, from 5935 WWCR. Fair otherwise.I need to check the power level again. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC) GERMANY 5920, 0515-, HCJB Apr 18 Poor to fair reception in German. I suspect it would have been a bit stronger earlier in the evening for me. Not clear whether they are using 1 or 10 kW. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC) HOLLAND 5939.97, 0521-, Radio Peipzender Apr 18 I'm not 100% certain this is the Dutch low powered station, or actually Radio Voz Missionaria. Perhaps the later. Non-stop vocals, and sounding rather religious, so quite possibly the later. Fair/good except for WWCR splatter. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC) HOLLAND 5955, 0511-, Sunlite Radio Apr 18 Even better tonight, especially at and just before 05:00 UTC with Adele's Skyfall, then numerous ads in Dutch at 04:59. Really impressive for 1 kW or less!. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC) HOLLAND 5970, 0528-, Radio 208 Apr 18 Very weak, but in the clear hear, and seemingly // to an Icelandic KiwiSDR with EZL music. Fair amount of static crashes. Playing a Whiter Shade of Pale by Procol Harum. Not clear on the power either. Overall a most productive evening!. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC) ROMANIA 11740, 0509-, Radio Romania International Apr 18 A really powerful signal. I'm stymied that I can quite get any audio. French is listed at this time. Pure red on my KiwiSDR waterfall in Masset. S9 + 10 to 20 as well! So close!. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC) UNITED KINGDOM 5875, 0502-, BBCWS Apr 18 100% copy with BBCWS news in English. This is rare to have such perfect copy!.

Radio Romaina International Reception |
|
Monday, April 17 2023
ROMANIA 15170 kHz Fq change of RRI Tiganesti, Spanish to Iberia / SoAM ARG/CHL/URG target at 247 degrees
13650 2100 2200 14 TIG 90 247 0 288 1234567 260323 291023 N = DRM mode Spa ROU RRO ROU 3809 Instead of 15130 kHz noted yesterday April 16 on 15170 kHz channel 15130 2100 2200 14 TIG 300 247 0 288 1234567 260323 291023 D Spa ROU RRO ROU 3812 Checked all 15 MHz channels at this hour, but the reason for the change to 15170 kHz is not clear to me. 73 wb df5sx From: Richard Langley Sent: Sunday, April 16, 2023 11:10 PM Subject: [WOR] Radio Romaina International Reception Excellent reception yesterday (15 April) for both the western European directed transmission at 22:00 UTC on 9740 and 11800 kHz and the eastern North American transmission at 00:00 UTC (technically, 16 April) on 9550 and 11620 kHz here in NB. Using a Belka-DX receiver in pseudo-synchronous mode, the recorded audio was very good with minimal selective fading. These hour-long broadcasts include some music selections, including "All That Jazz" today (Saturdays). The audio was almost as good as the DRM half-hour broadcasts, which typically don't feature music. The Saturday (Sunday UTC for North America) broadcasts supposedly include DX Mailbag/Listeners Letterbox but there wasn't one on 15/16 April. Is it only once per month? According to reports I have seen, there was one on 1/2 April. -- Richard Langley _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/
