Welcome to the Skywaves DX forum

Here are a few that I have in my collection, some you have heard before and a few you may not have heard and may never want to hear again. :lol: Joyce Hahn + CQ Serenade https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lOqe0oouN2s Connie Smith + Tiny Blue Transistor Radio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGqd2brJx5k ...

I heard the test tones during the week here in London with with an s9+ signal.
There are two 100w and one planned 50w low power Dutch stations on 891 kHz, so I don't think that they are going to be very happy.

I don't think it's intermod it's just that you are receiving other Classic FM and Radio 2 transmitters, the receiver is reported as having good sensitivity and selectivity on FM but not so hot on Long wave. Radio 2 on 89.7 is from the high power Tacolneston transmitter which is your local transmitte...

LPAM - I am hearing the 100 Watt Dutch station 'Studio Denakker' with a good signal on 819, it's moved to 819 from 675 >> https://www.studiodenakker.nl/webplayerPopup.php .
There is another station due to use 819 called Buurtradio.

when i used to dx low power relays i never received anything lower than about 16 watts so i don't have first hand experience on the range of half a watt or 2 watt i'm pretty sure this site used to run 1 or 2 watts analogue and apparently covered 2 villages http://tx.mb21.co.uk/gallery/gallerypage.p...

I had to check on the Carlow Ireland SDR >> http://emeraldsdr1.ddns.net:8073/ to see if RTE1 was back. Here in London it is non existent under the border blaster from Algeria.

Good bit of detective work there John, thanks for sorting out the problem and your time spent in getting the forum up and running again.

KT.

Bloody hell me old pommy mate, throw another shrimp on the barbie - I put your recording through my bhi noise cancelling speaker and to my 70 year old ears, the jingly bit of the start of the TOTH ident sounds the same as in your recording. John, I would say that it's a Yes. http://emoticons.dataham...

well it was mainly a southern affair

Tropo 15.09.19 0914 88.60 G UNID Blank Carrier S England? 0 0 fading in forgotten pirate tx?

Could be the North London pirate Back2Back FM on 88.60, sometimes they just have a carrier running on Sunday mornings - only a guess mind you.

Extra AM on 1332 will be good, we had the religious station Premier Christian Radio on 1332 serving central London, but it looks like the transmitter has been switched off... it was crazy having 5 transmitters carrying the same programme just to serve London. I often listen on 1395, Radio Seabreeze ...

It's still hot, hot, hot here in London, my radio shack thermometer is still reading 30°C here at 23:55.

"Andy, I don't know what the station is that you are receiving but it's not RAW 87.5 from London" "I'm not saying it's not Rawinnocence that Andy is receiving" confused.com of N London......... Raw Innocence is being reported on 87.5 on the pirate boards - seems to be getting out well. You may have...

It is Raw Innocence 87.5 https://www.rawinnocenceuk.com/ I'm not saying it's not Rawinnocence that Andy is receiving - all I am saying is that here in N London the station on 87.5 is Live FM UK according to the RDS. The audio on the station that I am getting is not the same as your link, also it's ...

Wonder if Eagle FM or Mercury 96.6 will give it any trouble? I am line of sight to Greenwich and here in North London Maritime Radio (Greenwich) on 96.5, is sandwiched between Eagle (Guildford) on 96.4 and Heart (Pimlico St Albans/Watford) on 96.6 (Mercury does not exist it is now Heart) - Eagle by...

Another station to look out for during lift conditions. A new community station called Maritime Radio is testing here in London on 96.5, well with a name like that it could only be located in Greenwich, it is due on air Saturday 20th April 2019. It's playing some good music - and with the increasing...

Just checked 1431 on the Twenty SDR and the jamming is much stronger than I get it .. http://websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901/

Edit 00.00 LT: It's strong on the Sardinia SDR.. http://sibamanna.duckdns.org:8073/

Thanks for the replies, it looks like the skip is short tonight so I am getting Smooth from Essex at s9 and no sign of the jammer.

I was hoping that it was from China or Korea which would have been a first for me given my noise level - ah well maybe one day.

It's not often that I hear much in the way of DX on MW due to my local noise level, but here in London we have had a lot of rain tonight, so it's quietened my noise level somewhat. I'm hearing some jamming on 1431 kHz but I don't know who is jamming who. It takes me back to the 1970's when the Briti...

Many radios from China are badged under different names, the one that you listed doesn't get much of a rating on eham.net >> https://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/6430

Take a look at the reviews and ratings for General coverage receivers before you decide >> https://www.eham.net/reviews/products/8

You think you have problems!!! Listen to this short recording of my interference on MW, the noise level is s9+20dB and you can hear the difference when I switch the aerial in and out. At the end of the recording is BBC 3CR on 630 and it is s9+30dB, but it's only 10dB above my noise level. I'd give m...
