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 Jonathan Marks ___________________________________ This e-mail originates from: Jonathan Marks Director Critical Distance BV Stam 69 1275CG Huizen The Netherlands Newsblog: <http://criticaldistance.blogspot.com/> http://criticaldistance.blogspot.com Broadcast & Podcast Gadgets: <http://whatcaughtmyeye.blogspot.com/> http://whatcaughtmyeye.blogspot.com/ Media Lab in Benin <http://www.mediaprofessional.org> http://www.mediaprofessional.org Company Website: <http://www.criticaldistance.nl> http://www.criticaldistance.nl ------------------------------ Message: 6 Date: Fri, 2 Jan 2009 10:44:23 +0200 From: "Markku Jussila" <markku.t.juss...@gmail.com> Subject: [HCDX] R Nederland on 940 kHz?????

It's so sad to the these 200m high antennas fall down to a pile a steel crap.

After the huge success of the PK's Magnetic LW loop antenna, I wonder what aerial should I use for a forray into the SW tropical bands of 90 and 60 meters. I was alwas fascinated by broadcast bands used only in some parts of the world such as LW, OIRT-FM, the tropical bands, the X-band, the Japanese FM band, etc. because is like being born again into another world. I receive very few exotic signals on 60m using my Sangean CST-818 connected to a random wire in our yard of roughly 10 - 20 meters of length... An antenna dedicated to the tropical bands would be the best gift for me 22nd year of birthday (with the possible exception of an OIRT-FM tuner since the F2 may exceptionally reach these frequencies and OIRT-FM F2 skip is much more likely than Japanese FM F2 skip, let alone CCIR-FM F2 skip) which takes place the next 16th of July, more than 6 months away, but we can even celebrate our non-birthday according to Charles Lutwidge Dodgson / Lewis Carroll's caracters. May the good DX comeback, as condx aren't even half-decent right now !

RA, 7240, Jan 3 at 1505:30 after news, reverting to ``Overnight on ABC Local Radio``. We are hearing a lot of this instead of the usual RA/ABC feature programs before and after this hour. That`s because RA gives up for several weeks each summer and just plugs into a misnamed ABC network, which even without this SW relay, is still a national, not local service, i.e. originating at each local station as you would be entitled to expect (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CANADA. CBC NQ, 9625 remained in whack, Jan 4 at 1415, but NHK relay on 11705 was again splattering 11685-11725, especially during music, which is the Sunday subject (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. The day before, Firedrake vs Sound of Hope was on 8400, but Jan 3 at 1426 check it was back on 9000 instead. Firedrake back on 8400, Jan 4 at 1406 check, ex-9000 the day before, ex-8400 the day before that, no doubt mimicking the saults of Sound of Hope (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. Still no Al?, Presidente relay of RN Venezuela, Sunday Jan 4; however, one of the frequencies which had been used for that on Sundays only, strong 13750, was on the air with extended RHC programming. At 1520 with weekly Esperanto service supposedly on 11760 only, where // but much weaker and an echo ahead of 13750 feed. 1551 check, 13750 still on with El Mundo de la Filatelia; audio cuts down but not completely out, periodically: wiggle that patchcord! Shortly followed by Por Una Vida Mejor medical show about living to age 120 or more, as if anyone would really want to do that in a police state full of privation; kept running past 1600 but did not pay attention to content; 1701 check, starting replay of Cuba Campesina, which originally airs at 1230. Perhaps they are keeping one transmitter warm for a return of the Cold One. Still on with more music at last check 1800 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** GUAM. 9975, Sat Jan 3 at 1420, sounds like a vintage Billy Graham sermon, with his peculiar accent, over a PA system. Trouble is, EiBi and Aoki say KTWR uses 9975 after 1400 on M-F only, but nothing else scheduled. WWCR 9980 was still weak before daily buildup to super-strength. 9975 again with English preaching after hymn, Sunday Jan 4 at 1411, sounded like Rev. Victor Bornay (sp?), something Gospel Hour, ref. Isaiah 55, about immigration. Like Sat, presumably KTWR extended to daily from M-F only at this hour, and once again, ACI from WWCR 9980 weak at first, but then building steadily (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** LAOS [non]. 11785, WHRI, Sat Jan 3 at 1459 after rustic music from Hmong Lao Radio, no break, no legal ID, and right into next program, Hmong World Christian Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. Looking for XEQM, 6104.8, no trace of even a het Jan 3 before 1500 with strong VOA Chinese on 6105, but after that went off at 1503, could barely detect het against remaining pileup. Het was doing better Jan 4 after 1400. Juli?n Santiago says XEQM had been off for more than a dekaday, but since Jan 3 he is hearing it in the daytime (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. KEOR, Catoosa/Sperry/Tulsa OK, 1120, had kept on with nothing but music tests for weeks and weeks, but missing Jan 3 at 1937 check, allowing KMOX to just barely be heard as its skywave was starting to build. We shall see if KEOR be off for good again. Still off at 1750 UT check Jan 4 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SPAIN. REE, 17595, Sunday Jan 4 at 1435 ending one episode of Solo Canciones from Radio Cl?sica network, with French interpretations of music about Spain, e.g. by Saint-Sa?ns; and into another episode of same show, this with songs from Cabo Verde, and later Niger. 1459 just started something by Ladysmith Black Mambazo, only to be interrupted at 1500 for time signal and immediate joining of live(?) Tablero [Deportivo] show. Most unprofessional and disrespectful of the music show. I figured this was going to happen as they were starting a half-hour program at :35! Should have skipped the news at 1400 and started part 1 then (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. Marion`s Attic on WBCQ, 7415, Sat Jan 3 at 2200 featured music boxes, and I believe she said there would be more of that next week. I really enjoy their tinkles, but at 2258 something went very wrong as show was upwrapping, bits of audio of Marion looping over and over, but progressing syllable by syllable. Fortunately, it was almost over anyway, unlike a few weeks ago when this happened for some 15 minutes (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 1680, UT Sun Jan 4 at 0740, found Tom Leykis show in progress discussing the merits of women as sports reporters, not a topic of interest to me, but what station could that be? Talk format does not match any of the 1680 listings in the NRC AM Log 2008-2009, all of which are either Spanish or religion or nostalgia. Closest might be what is now WPRR Ada MI, except that is non-commercial, or is it? And their website linked from Wikipedia goes nowhere: http://www.publicrealityradio.org/ and official(?) show site http://www.blowmeuptom.com/ unseems to have a station list (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 6074, another log of 8GAL V/CQ marker, this time, Jan 3, it started to early before Russia 6075 quite modulated. In fact, it was just ending when I tuned in at 1359:30. Did not hear anything on Jan 4 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. OTH radar pulses hang around 11000 but exact range varies; Jan 4 at 1413, roughly 10990 to 11020 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ### ------------------------------ Message: 20 Date: Sun, 4 Jan 2009 19:13:14 +0000 (GMT) From: JOSE MIGUEL ROMERO ROMERO <jmromero782...@yahoo.es> Subject: [HCDX] 5790 BBC, ruso??, nuevo??

While Software Defined Radios brought visualisation as a new dimension to DXing (You can see the signals you receive, over a broad spectrum), now the next step of visualisation can be explored: Near realtime displays of logs on a world map. See what others hear. Let others see what you are receiving. The Perseus Databases logging function acts as support for creating online logs with a few mouseclicks. You'll find further advice on page 1 of the databases. 2) TBL is alive again! While the last edition of the Tropical Band List was published more than 2 years ago, I think that with the help of many "online loggers" the content could be updated quickly. So take part in the MWList online logging project, supported by TBL and MWList, covering MW, the tropical bands and domestic services on shortwave - the real DX. TBL will be solely distributed as part of the Perseus Databases, and it is free. 3) The Nagoya sheet of the Perseus Databases now also contains calculation of sunrise and sunset times for tx locations, as well as distance and azimut values. Users of the reduced version of the Perseus Databases (which keeps the file size below 140 MB for Excel 2000) can variably add the functions mentioned above to certain entries of the Nagoya list. Please refer to "Read-first" document supplied with the databases. vy 73, Willi Passmann, DJ6JZ http://www.4shared.com/dir/5567845/166a39bd/sharing.html Perseus Databases http://www.radio-portal.org/sdr.html SDR-Special http://www.mwlist.org/mw_logmap.php?la=en Visual Logbook of MWList & TBL ------------------------------ Message: 24 Date: Mon, 5 Jan 2009 04:36:04 +0430 From: "Albert Muick" <radioresearch_field_operati...@yahoo.com> Subject: [HCDX] Logs for Al Muick for 04 January To: <hard-core-dx@hard-core-dx.com> Message-ID: <005201c96ec9$6ceddea0$46c99b...@com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" QTH: Kabul, Afghanistan RX: WinRadio G303e ANT: 200m Longwire/Randomwire ACC: Palstar MW-550P Mediumwave Preselector 6250.4 KOREA (NORTH), R.
