RTE Ireland via Woooferton, UK (??) logged 15
September on 17860 from 1300 onward with the
All-Ireland Football finals. Signal fair on peaks,
with long, deep fades. None of the other four
frequencies heard, not even the other 16 meter
frequency. Were these all from the same transmitter
site? (
RTE Ireland : its historic lack of presence on SW has always been puzzling
to me ...
RTE, by my view of the way history should have happened -- would have had
the following transmission systems:
1. 2 x HRS 8 / 4 / 1
-- aimed at the US and 'Southern' Canada and Latin America
-- installed mid 1980s
Dear Friends,
Today December 7, 2003 on 15280 at 1025 I heard RTE Ireland announcement several
times that they are rethinking about their SW broadcasts now that they are on
internet and satellite.
They are asking for feedback at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
