An SDR in Northern Sweden, near the Finnish border, is offering great DX windows into East Asia and Western North America, especially on AM. I know this is cheating, not my rx or my antennas. But it does give an indication of what can be done from Northern Europe with the right setup.
The SDR is run by sm2byc . Its greatest strengths? 1. Excellent Medium Wave antennas that can be switched by the users, some along a north-south and some on an east-west orientation, and 2. a VERY quiet site with only occasional noise.#
To give some examples:
Today, December 17, 2018, 0815-0915 UTC
New Zealand: 6 MHz ATC from Auckland
Canada: AM from Vancouver in Chinese on 1320, near local quality
Newfoundland on HF 6160 with old Media Network replays (presumed Newfoundland)
United States: KBOI 670 AM from Idaho
KOMO Seattle on 1000 kHz AM
San Francisco ATC on 6655 and, new for me, 5547.
WWV on 2500 kHz and female WWVH on 5000 kHz.
Japan: NHK domestics on 594 and 747 AM, the latter very good
Radio Nikkei on usual 6055 but also on much rarer 3925.
NHK on 9750, near local.
Korea: KBS presumed in Japanese on 6155. KBS on 7275, booming in
KBS Korean on 15160
Maintained by This was my second blog and has been online for many years. It is primarily devoted to radiocommunications monitoring rather than international broadcasting policy. Unless otherwise stated, times are UTC, all frequencies are kHz. Associated theme pages ordered by theme/country have been taken down for updating at the moment. Enjoy!
