[oh]

Moin, Moin!

Auch in Nordwest-BRD ist das Piepsen leicht zu hören, um 16:11UTC.

Hallo A-DXer,

hier eine Weiterleitung von der MW-/LW Afu Liste.
Ich kann den Piepser hier im Moment relativ gut hören.
ca 185km Distanz.

------------------------------------
After the sad demise of all LW and MW broadcasts in Germany, a handful of
pioneers came up who are operating legal low-powered medium wave stations in
the context of a radio museum or for educational purposes. One of them is
Ralph (DL2NDO, one of the participants in the legendary Donebach 137 kHz
activation in 2002). He has obtained a transmitting license for 1476 kHz
(former frequency of Vienna Bisamberg), built a 3 Watt AM transmitter, and
with the help of a small team raised a quarterwave antenna on the Fraunhofer
premises south of Erlangen (JN59MN21HF). 

Yesterday they got on air for the first time, running a preliminary test
transmission consisting of a switched 1000 Hz beeps (one second on, one
second off, audio frequency locked to the RF carrier). This pattern will be
continued for a few days, before they will eventually.take over the audio
from the local DAB student radio "funklust".

The current test pattern is relatively easy to make out in the noise so it
may be a good chance for some DX detections.  At night we've actually heard
the beeps on Twente SDR and a couple of German Kiwi-SDRs. But I guess using
narrowband signal processing techniques, the carrier and coherent tones coud
make it much further. The carrier frequency is derived from an OCXO and is
currently at 1476000.411 Hz.
