Hi All
When Mongolia ran English on 990 kHz back in the early 90s their signal was
very strong in Beijing but was not heard in Guangzhou (Canton). This test
may also be very directional.

Distance to Pyongyang KRE 1400 kilometers in 133 degrees.
These USSR sidefire antennas are slewable at +/- 30 degress, I guess,
like in Bolshakovo Kaliningrad Oblast.
Former 1350 kHz frequency can be adjust easily to new 1431 kHz channel ?

I hope those of you with foreign contacts (or even in the States), can
help spread the word about this DX test for me. I'm not part of those MW
and SW groups like many of you - or else I wouldn't be posting this on
this list here - so any help would be appreciated. This station is
targeting Korea from Mongolia; anyone in DXer-heavy Japan would be most
helpful, though my contacts are rather limited there ---
*** DX TEST ALERT / Please share with other groups ***
I want to spread the info about a MW DX test this week that I am helping
with (especially those with Asian contacts, please re-post). The
engineers need any help they can get, primarily recordings to see how the
station is getting out. The guidelines for the test are below:
* Date/Time: May 25-28 1300-1700 UT
* Frequency: 1431 (power will likely be between 100-500 kW)
* Location: Mongolia with a target audience of South Korea
* Send recordings to c0000...@aol.com or upload to
https://www.dropbox.com/request/gXQDEsPBCtGiuXn4UcIb
* Recording preferences: MP3 format, mono, no less than 32kbps, and no
longer than 30 minutes
* File name should be the sender's initials (example: mine would be
"CK" ) - day - time.mp3 (for May 24 at 1am: "ck-24- 0100.mp3). If
uploading to the Dropbox, please send an e-mail to the above address
stating your listening location as well.
* If possible, do not set the receiver bandwidth to be narrow, but wide
AM (at least 6 kHz for example).
I hope we can get some help for these engineers who made the journey
halfway around the world to set up this test (Chris Kadlec, South Korea,
May 23, WTFDA gg via DXLD)
Very interesting, but a few details are missing, like WHO is behind this?
Probably religious, Mormon? Or USG? Mongolia is already a secret relay
site on SW for Radio Free Asia. Is this really for North Korea? 1431
looks like a good choice in the region, with no hi-power stations on it
per WRTH, nothing greater than 10 kW in east Asia, 40 kW in Kyrgyzstan.
And WHERE in Mongolia is it? A big country. Here`s another introduxion to
it: (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
Good afternoon! This is a copy and paste from a Facebook group mostly of
broadcast engineers. I was one. Tom / Doc.
I hope you guys will grant me an exception for a post void of transmitter
photos - we're trying to get some help in a DX test here in Asia (high
enough power that it may be heard on the west coast) and frankly, a group
of avid radio fans and engineers most likely to help fellow engineers
test their transmitter(s) tends to get the word out best.
