Foley, 49 Winnebago Way, Mason City, Iowa 50401-1635, USA 1473 Mario Puccetti, Via Nazionale 67, I-40038 Vergato (BO), Italy 3570 Dominic J.Murdock, 50 Stream Str., Newry, Co.Down BT34 lHJ, N.Ireland Dear friends, members and readers, Welcome to the April issue of SWN, which should be in our members hands in due time before our AGM - if the Danish Postal service permits! I wrote in my last editorial, that our bulletin was delayed here in Denmark because of a mistake by tbe above mentioned authorities. And the very same thing happened also last month, despite I have made some big labels, in which I wrote “A Prioritaire” and put those in the boxes with the Danish letters. Now, this month I’ll speak with the postmaster himself, telling him that our bulletin must be send as first class letter, hoping this will help. I will keep you informed next month. This April issue can however be delayed a little due to the Easter holidays. And already now, 1 can tell you, that also the May issue will be delayed a little because of our AGM which will held on the very same week-end as I use to edit and compile the bulletin. about our AGM (Annual General Meeting for those who are not familar with this abbreviation), it will, as you know, be held during the week-end April 30-th to May 2nd, at the West coast of Jutland. On page 13 you can read more detailed information, and on page 14 a detailed map can be found. If you have further questions, you are welcome to contact our treasurer, Bent Nielsen. His addres Speaking cm be found on page 2. But already now, we can tell you - that as usual - we will see some of our welknown members, such as Andy Schmid, Harald Kuhl and Dario Monferrini. And we know that more on it’s way. But of course we also want very much to see= at this annual event. It is not just an AGM, but also a friendly get-to-gether, where we enjoy each others company. So, let us also see you at Vejrs Strand, but please make your reservationsfast - very fast, so to say! Again I’m happy to say, that an almost complete SWN containing 32 pages is ready for you. The Utility shack is also included this month, contrary to last month, where I received Joachim’s pages five days after the deadline, despite that Joachim had send his pages in due time. Again it must be the Danish Postal service - or the German? we can claim. The only section that is missing is the Unofficial Radio! I think that the rest of the contents speaks for itself, namely worth reading. With those words, I wish you all the very Best of 73’s, hoping to see many of you at the end of April. The front page picture does not shows the DSWCI chairman and Editor-in-chief on their way to the next AGM. But it could well be!

The broadcast of 5-92 include several English news segments. Around 12 stations elsewhere in Serbia are also broadcasting the statlon’s output.

A structure soon to qualify as the tallest in the Islands \\ ill in the near future mean local radio will return to mediumwave, and on increased power. KMZ Electronics are prescntl? installing a 132 metre high mast at the west end of Mount William which will radiate a 15 kW signal Island wide. The transmitter was purchased in Santiago, Chile, and a team of four professional riggers from Santiago are now assisting Mario Zuvic of KMZ Electronics to erect the mast and mstall the t.ransmittcr. FIBS were taken off the present medium wave transmitter in December 97 and replaced totally by BFBS 2 which will continue to broadcast. It will bc approximately one month before the transmitter IS ‘up and working’ and some time after that before transmissrons on the new frcqucncy will begin.

Earlier Delta Radio tried to get permission to build antennatowers in the Netherlands near the town of Apeldoom. this pemlission was not gi%-en due to mam protests of people living in the neighbourhood but also’due to em’ironmental reasons because tho antennatowers will be 400 (!) meters in height. The government has no possibilities to stop the building of the towers in the North Sea. even the dcalife will suffer from the electromagnetic currents and the birds from the towers.

(SHN in Medi DX News it 50) UNITED KINGDOM: Things are moving fast on the Low Power AM stations here in the UK. 4s many as several dozen stations arc likclg to appear soon on a limited number of channels so catching stations will gel increasingly more difficult as stations activate. For instance 1350 kHz is now used bv Radio Cave11 but shortly Hospital Radio Yare at the James Paget Hospital, gorleston, great Yarmouth will join them on the same channel. I am reliably advised that Hospital Radio Crawley nil1 appear on 1287 kHz. My sources also indicate that the most widely assign& LPAM channels will bc 1287, 1350 and 1386 kHz. From a DXcrs point of view the latter two channels will make inleresting listening overnight provided stations produce their own programmes and don’t just rclg a sustaining service. Keep your cars open for this ne\\ uavc of stations (SW) I can add to Steve’s report that. in addition to a number of hospital radio stations. 1 watt LPAM freely-radiating transmitters arc also being licensed by Radio Authority at several colleges/universities and also possibly at a number of UK army bases and even churches. Do particularly cheek 1278. 1350 and 1386 kHz over the coming weeks and let us know if you hear anything as official information is hard to come by and station operators are being told not to publicise their broadcasts outside the hospital/college etc. for fear of upsetting the local commercial stations...!

The antenna is a dipole with the axis of maximum radiation on a bearing of approx 065” - 245”. We broadcast 24 hrs a day simulcasting Oldies 96 CHNS (960 MW). Although not stated by Wayne S. Harvey, Chief Engineer, the transmitter is using USB only. CFRX 6070 Toronto began broadcasting in 1937. The present transmitter of 1 kW power was commissioned on Dec.31 1983 and uses one 50’ vertical tower antenna radiating omni-directionally and is installed at Clarkson-ONT, co,sited with CFRB 1010 MW. The programming is a simulcast of CFRB’s, except for a CFRX ID that runs twice an hour. Thanks to the’ Ontario DX Association who issue QSL’s.

The day before, it suddenly expanded most of its language services for the Balkans. Overnight, Albanian broadcasts went up from nine hours a week to 17, Serbian from IO to 15, Greek from L I to 14, Bulgarian from 14 to 16 and Macedonian from four to fike. hot for the first time, the BBC World Service - external v,ing of what is often regarded as a lumbering monolith - reacted speedily to an international emergency. It did so in the Falklands, the Gu!f and RLvanda, and has again nobi Just as firings are more dramatic than hirings, job losses more emotional than job creation, so the BBC gets bigger headlines when it axes language services than when it creates them. Over the past decade it has killed off its Finnish, German, Japanese, French for Europe, and Portuguese for Europe services, but also launched Azeri. Kinyarwanda (for central africa), Macedonian and Ljzbek, and, following the break-up of the former Yugoslavia at-ound I99 1, replaced its former Serbo-Croat sel-\/ice with a Serbian one and a Croatian one So births and deaths are about equal. llore significant is the fact that the BBC’s list of the languages in which it broadcasts (which tends to be drawn up with Foreign Oflice guidance) is usually the most reliable guide to which countries are currently regarded as actually or potentially important and volatile Also thanks to these contributing non-members, 51) Years of SW broadcasting Alok Dasyupta, India Arnaldo L.

Besides recordings from the speech of the King in 1948, Erik also played recordings from the DSWCI programme “DX-Window” produced in 1967-7 I by the late Christian Flagstad and DX-ers from Copenhagen.

I tuned to 6.940 kHz without much thought and enjoyed the thin reed and string music and gentle chanting. Yes, you’re ahead of me. At 1930 I heard an identification, Radio Fana. A first for me. Which logically leads me to think of my antennas. I have had a couple of requests to say something about my Don Phillips set-up here in Bridlington. It is nothing spectacular. Never do 1 get a wild elk wandering into my lengthy beverages, It was 8* March at about 20.00 as I sat at my computer. only perhaps a sea gull observing me condescendingly as it listening to 15475.8 kHz. First there was some accordion lands on my antenna pole. music. then some heavy pops. then some soulful romantic As 1 explained when I moved here a couple of years songs. It was Antarctica with their new transmitter. coming ago. I put a lot of effort into finding the best compromise in so well that I spared a thought for some of our fraternity for antennas. For, in the domestic environment, an antenna who will no longer listen to it. as it is “no longer DX.” I am has to be a compromise, and its design a bit of a black art. aware that Radio New Zealand has never been regarded Antenna theory is simple in perfect conditions, but in real with the same enthusiasm by Dxers since it upgraded from gardens near real telephone wires with irregular ground its old 7.5 kW transmitters. planes, water pipes, local interference sources. (and it must be said) aesthetic demands of wives or loved ones. you But this logging brought back to me the same thrill have to cope with what is acceptable. that my first adventures in Short Wave Listening gave me. I 1 have reproduced a picture of our house. and turned to my computer and loaded C&clock - a programme retouched my antenna wires. I use two antennas. Antenna which provided a world map to allow me to look at the B is about 35 metres and runs through a plastic hoop fixed signal path. It was wonderful that on this winter evening in to the top of an aluminium pole mounted on the side of the the northern hemisphere that I could eaves drop on activity house. It then goes to another pole further down the garden at the south pole. Although my audio quality was roomand is secured near to the ground. Antenna A can be seen to listening-good, it was nothing compared with modem also use the rnain pole. It makes its way to the ground at the possibilities. If, God forbid, there were to be a natural entrance to the front garden, which is approached from the disaster or a small war on the south pole. CNN would send right hand side of the picture. In all antenna A is about 25 metres in length. from my kitchen I Both antennas would be able to are buffered by see live pictures of using long wire the undauntable baluns.

It is important to do this. or much ofthe screening effect of the coax will be lost. In the house, in the listening room. I have connected both antenna wires, by using normal phono plugs ‘and sockets into an aluminium switching box. I use cheap miniature toggle switches to enable each of two antennas to be connected to either of my receivers. Of course, if I were designing to a high specification, I would have used BNC plugs and sockets and coaxial relays. The cheap components I have used do not waste any appreciable amount of signal. From the switching box, I again use coax to connect to the 50 Ohm input sockets on my receivers. Which is why, I believe, I am able to pick up Radio Fana while tapping away at my computer. Only when my daughter plays her electronic organ can I hear electrical noise from this house. There is a certain amount of television interference from some of my neighbours, but this is where I find the two antennas so useful. In many respects they perform identically. Switching from one to the other regularly gets me away from noise problems. The longer one is generally better on medium wave while the other seems quieter for Latin American tropical bands signals. There has been much written about the use of long wire baluns. The word balun is simply a joining together of the first syllables of the words “balanced” and “unbalanced”: used to describe an item which attempts to convert a high unspecified impedance of a simple long wire into a lower. more manageabie. impedance suitable fol feeding into coaxial (screened) cable. There are long arguments to sumest that the baluns sold to Dxers are crude devices which could only theoretically do their job at on particular frequency. Fans of the balun say that as they utilise an electromagnetic transformer action. the electrostatic component of the signal is reduced. (blast “static” is electrostatic by definition). Others point to the fact that the) are a good way of discharging high voltages f&n long wire antenna to reduce the risks in stormy weather. This may all be true. I have always noticed an insertion loss when using a balun, the S meter always cuts the signal down a little from what it would have been by simply connecting the long wire straight to the receiver. If you would like to contribute anythins to this discussion about useful antennas for the domestic environment. do please let me know. Or if you are a member of the sizeable proportion of the world’s population who know more than 1 do about baluns, do share your views. You will notice that I have changed my Internet provider.

Don Phillips, 197 Queensgate, Bridlington, East Yorks Y016 6QU United Kingdom Comments to the EDXC Land List From DSWCI member, Roberto PavaneIIo, Italy. I have received the following comment: “The 1998 Edition of the EDXC Radio Countries List 1998, a review by Henk van der Laan and Maarten van Deli?. on page 24 of the March issue of SWN. Henk and Maarten wrote: “but is there any such activity in Busingen and Campione?“. Yes, in Campione there is radio activity. The private radiostation International Classic has in Campione one transmitter operating on 102.800 Mhz and the Italian public television RAI has three television transmitters in Campione: One for RAI 1 on the channel E2, one for RAI 2 on channel 4 1 and one for RAT 3 on channel 64. “ From Anker Petersen. the following comment: At the NorDX contest, I had the opportunity to compare the 1998 edition against the 1992 edition of the EDXC Land List. Besides those remarks made by Olle Alm in the beginning of the list. I found that Transkei is now a p‘art of South Africa. and that Guantanamo Bay is now a part of Cuba. (.annoying. because I have heard the latter with AFRTS!). Furthermore Kyrgyzistan has been added (forgotten 1992 edition?). in the 141~personal score is now 239 countries heard, and 198 countries verified.
