[HCDX] Transmitter sites and Google Earth

["Jonathan Marks" <jonathan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Happy New Year,

 

I wonder if anyone is aware of an on-line directory of international
broadcaster transmitter site coordinates plotted on Google Earth?

 

I see that such a list exists for VLF sites here
http://sidstation.lionelloudet.homedns.org/stations-list-en.xhtml 

 

And the UK has several sites which list just about everything with a
transmission tower. e.g.
http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/973305/page/0/vc/1.
It is fascinating to see that Orfordness still shows the fan shape of the
old over the horizon radar station 

 

It is interesting that if you type Wertachtal into Google Earth it takes you
to the front door of the HF transmitter site.

 

I have been manually putting a few into Google Earth pro as part of a video
documentary sequence I am making, but just wondered if anyone else shares
the fascination. I know ITU and WRTH have listed Lat/Long locations for
decades. 

 

73's
