MW closedown - CBA Moncton, the 50 kW station serving New Brunswick on 1070 kHz, closes its MW channel at 0700 Atlantic time tomorrow morning ... 1000 UTC. There will be a special short duration "DX Test" at around 0100 Atlantic time, 0400 UTC which *should* be audible across the Atlantic.

Friday 4 April 2008

UK FM - Touch Radio began broadcasting at 7pm (1800 UTC) this evening serving Warwick, Leamington and Kenilworth. Noted their RDS TOUCH___ while driving up the M40/A43 towards Northampton. More details on the Touch Radio website.

Monday 31 March 2008

MW - RTE finally switched off their transmitter on 567 kHz (and the relay on 729 kHz).

aerials - relocated the feeders at home, and moved the SW beaming EWE to the back garden which means it's slightly further anti-clockwise than previously. It picks up the Gurkha station from Sandhurst on 1134 kHz very nicely, whereas the NW and NNW aerials yield L&D Hospital Radio.

Sunday 30 March 2008

MW - TWR Benin have a slightly revised programme schedule for their new transmitter in Benin on 1566 kHz. In the mornings they're on 0200-0435 UTC, and in the evening 1600-2030 (or 2045).

MW - VRT closed most of their Flemish language outlets on mediumwave today. So 540 and 1512 are now silent. 927 kHz continues to broadcast the Radio 1 service. 1188 kHz was supposed to close down too, but appears to still be on the air.

Saturday 29 March 2008

Friday 15 February 2008

MW - Vatican Radio on 1530 kHz noted much earlier than their normally scheduled 0330 start with Spanish at 0100, then French at 0230. Not shown on their website schedule. As I was recording that channel overnight, trying to hear Celtic Music Radio, it didn't help.

Red Sands Radio - is testing on 1278 kHz prior to their RSL this month. Apparently good reception in Essex, but checking here at 2200 UTC the only English station was Pulse Classic Gold from Bradford. You can listen too on the Red Sands website.

EWE vs ALA 1530 - did a quick comparison of the two aerials this morning. 1134 kHz on the loop had L&D Radio (north) dominant with Gurkha Radio in the background (southwest). However on the SW beaming EWE aerial, Gurkha Radio was loud and clear.

It's off-air from 1900-2200 BST during Albania's agreed use of the channel. There are some photos of the transmitter site on the Big L Forum. Sure enough they signed back on with London Calling at 2200 BST - good signal.

August 28, 2006

RSL - Heard over the past week on 87.7 MHz, Siemens Championships Radio covering the World Rowing Championship held at Dorney Lake, Eton. Overnight (all night) they had a short repeating voice ID loop which made IDing easy. Couldn't detect any RDS, probably due to the close attention of SKFM also still on 87.7 MHz from South Kilburn. Website World Rowing Championships

August 27, 2006

RSL - One of the other stations on 87.7 MHz in the past couple of weeks was "Radio Verulam" from Hemel Hempstead ... playing mostly oldies music (presumably automated overnight). Website Radio Verulam. So that's four stations on 87.7 all audible here. No wonder R Wimbledon barely got out of SW19.

June 25, 2006

RSL - WIMBLEDN RSL on 87.7 MHz. Fantastic bit of frequency planning going on this year ... Just about hear them east of Hangar Lane on the A40. But anywhere west of that, they're either smothered by a station in Hayes/Southall, and further out near the M25 by RADIOWEY. RDS is WIMBLEDN. Mind you 87.9 isn't exactly very usable either.

Station News - The authorities in Holland are re-organising their AM and FM bands on June 1, 2003. It's a "Zerobase" operation, designed as a one-off event to allow more commercial stations on FM. Some current stations will lose their channels, eg Radio 10 FM lose 675 kHz and all their FM channels. Radio 1 will go FM only, with 1008 kHz being allocated to Radlon Media Ltd - an Essex based company. They hope to use the full 400 kW power non-directional to broadcast Wonderful Radio London to SE England.

Here is a listing of the new channel allocations by Frequency

1008 and 891 kHz currently have a tape loop advising listeners to re-tune.

Propagation - Just one RDS log today, and no lunchtime fade-in of the mystery 87.8 MHz station.

Propagation - Brief E's mid-morning to Tunisia. Then early afternoon weak E's to Spain ... and again the English station on 87.8 MHz for about 15 minutes. Then a gap until a few minutes of E's to Portugal. Another gap, and a good opening to Greece, then Italy, then Tunisia.

Propagation - Very frustrating day today, with Sporadic E just reaching FM several times, but then disappearing again. Especially frustrating was hearing an English language station on 87.8, maybe from Spain or Portugal, but fades happened at exactly the wrong moments ... several times.
