Introducing: Hard-Core-DX Slack Chat  View Printable Version 
Thursday, June 17 2021

HCDX
Hi all,

Hard-Core-DX has been a pioneer in connecting shortwave listeners for
nearly 30 years now. In its core it has been emailing lists and web sites
and some other experiments which have either spun to become popular on
their own (e.g. various ham related spotting sites or Online Log which is
very popular in Finland) or not. Today we wanted to try to branch out into
chat using Slack.

This is not the only chat there is... IRC, Facebook, Whatsapp etc have
small circles for shortwave listeners but they have all been closed systems
and not enabling an environment that can be used across devices and have
conversations about any topics we choose. In the corporate world Slack has
revolutionized communications amongst colleagues and partners in different
companies. Much of work in U.S.A. small companies happens nowadays in Slack
and not so much in emails.

*Hard-Core-DX has signed up and created it's very own Slack service*.

If you want to join the HCDX Slack, please click this link and create your
own HCDX Slack account:

https://join.slack.com/t/hard-core-dx/shared_invite/zt-rn83gamf-_UCfo9LYUVmoIBhb0~3cSg

Some basic rules of the Slack service:

1. When you join it, you will see some channels that have been created
already. You can join them or if you can't find the topic you'd like to
chat about, please create your own.
2. HCDX will not be in the business of moderating what people are
creating or discussing. If you create a channel, you will choose the
policies of the discussion.
3. This can naturally invite some abuse. We will deal with it with
Slack's policies as time comes.
4. You are welcome to invite your DX friends to the HCDX Slack and grow
the community. Invite happens from menu in upper left corner and link
"Invite people to Hard-Core-DX"
5. Let's keep subjects within shortwave radio, broadcast, utility,
pirate DXing & ham radio if possible to keep the service relevant to us
6. This is an experiment... if it doesn't gain popularity or becomes a
burden, we will shut it down. But for now, if you want to experiment and
see if this is where you want to chat with your DX friends, join the fun.

World Music Radio on four frequencies - 15790 on air on now  View Printable Version 
Thursday, June 17 2021

HCDX
World Music Radio (WMR) is now broadcasting on four AM frequencies:

The new frequency 25800 kHz in the 11 metre band went on the air June 14th
2021 at 11 UTC. The power is 100 Watts ? or some 250 Watts ERP ? and the
transmitter site is on top of a 110 m tall aerial tower in Mårslet in the
southern outskirts of Aarhus, Denmark. The transmitter will be on the air
24 hours a day, seven days a week, providing very good coverage to Aarhus,
the second largest city in Denmark. Occasionally the signal can also be
heard much further afield via E skip or F2 propagation when conditions are
good. As the sunspot number is increasing ? until the maximum is reached
(probably) in the Summer of 2025 ? long distance reception on 25800 kHz will
improve.

15790 kHz is on the air with 200 Watts into a three element yagi beamed
south. The transmitter site is north of Randers, and this transmitter is on
the air regularly every Saturday and Sunday at 0700-2000 UTC. During the
summer period the transmitter is often kept on the air continuously from
Saturday morning at 0700 until Sunday at 2100 or 2200 UTC.

This weekend will also see a extended schedule: WMR will be on the air on
15790 kHz from today June 17th at 0700 UTC - continuously until June 21st at
2200 UTC. Good opportunities for a great DX catch - in particular when the
19 metre band is open after sunset (around 20 UTC).

WMR continues broadcasting on 5930 kHz with 200 Watts from Bramming in SW
Denmark using a horizontal dipole. Future plans: 500 Watts

After four years of struggle, WMR finally began broadcasting on MW 927 kHz
from Hvidovre, Copenhagen, on April 14th 2021. Initially with 50 Watts only;
power was gradually increased, and is now 250 Watts. Within the next few
weeks the power will be increased to 500 Watts. The aerial is a coil aerial.
The transmitter provides excellent reception in the larger Copenhagen area
and in parts of Zealand and SW Sweden during daytime. Unfortunately a very
powerful, Italian pirate station (supposedly from around Milan) began using
927 kHz a short while after WMR was launched on 927, making reception of WMR
impossible in most parts of Europe, and even causing severe interference to
WMR on 927 kHz in Denmark during evenings and night time.

Reception reports are welcome. A printed full detail QSL card is available
for correct reports by mail to World Music Radio, PO Box 112, DK-8960
Randers SØ, Denmark ? if possible please enclose return postage (two duly
stamped International Reply Coupons or a five euro note). A printed full
detail QSL card is also available if you send your report by email, and at
the same time make a donation of at least 50 DKK via PayPal to
paypal.me/worldmusicradio

A non detailed eQSL is available for reports to wmr@wmr.dk

Kindly note that reports using remote receivers are not QSLed.

Hi all
we're hearing HM-01 here 1820 Z on 11635, but with audio so low as to be
barely heard. and a fluttery sound on the channel like a jammer or
woodpecker-like OTHR radar signal.
