[HCDX] Radio Sweden Intl ceases with transmissions on short and mediumwave
Radio Sweden Internationall will cease with its transmissions on short- and mediumwave at 31:st October 2010. The reason is short- and mediumwave seems a bit old fashioned and the listeners prefers internet according to Radio Sweden Internationall. Instead Radio Sweden will continue its transmissions on the internet. Several foreign languages broadcasts will also cease after 31:st October 2010. Radio Sweden hoped that DRM would have had a larger break-through on the shortwave.

Re: [HCDX] Logs
the signal point of ORIGIN is what I think is important on a signal report, not the politics of the producer of the signal CONTENT I don't consider a CRI signal from Havana as significant as a CRI signal from Beijing Just My opinion on things, but I am new at this Yodar Words MEAN things. AS do the words in our constitution, they are not meant to be nuanced, but READ AS writ! --- On Thu, 3/18/10, John Kecskes jkecs...@internode.on.net wrote: From: John Kecskes jkecs...@internode.on.net Subject: Re: [HCDX] Logs To: Glenn Hauser wghau...@yahoo.com Cc: hard-core-dx@hard-core-dx.com Date: Thursday, March 18, 2010, 11:15 PM On Thu, 18 Mar 2010 15:34:04 -0700 (PDT), you wrote: Some of us care where signals actually come from (out of SW transmitting antennas in a certain country). Really. This directly affects how well you will hear them or hear them at all. Observing how propagation works is part of the game. In this case it might also be significant that Taiwan does not keep its transmitters on-frequency. If you do not care about any of this, that`s fine and your privilege. I will try to remember to avoid clarifying your logs in this way. Personally I find YFR programming useless and of no interest whatsoever, so looking into the more technical aspects keeps hearing it from being a total waste. 73, Glenn Very true, but what confused me is that I never specify the transmitter location, when I used to keep a log book I would have put the transmitting country as Taiwan or what ever for my country count, but not now days. I am on other hand enjoy what the programme content is, like to hear both side of the argument so to speak. I have no objection to you or any one else correct my logs cheers, John Once you've accumulated sufficient knowledge to get by, you're too old to remember it. ---[Start Commercial]- Order your WRTH 2009: http://www.hard-core-dx.com/redirect2.php?id=wrth2009 ---[End Commercial]--- 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/ ___ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
