On June 30, 2019 the traditional summer transmission took place with the old Alexanderson alternator SAQ at World Heritage Grimeton Radio Station on 17,2 kHz CW. For this broadcast, I used a simple long wire antenna of 30 meters long, without a Balun. This time I sent my reception report via the form on their website https://alexander.n.se/receptionreport/
Special Event Station Radio Space will be on air in the 49 m-band on 6070 kHz on Saturday, September 07, 2019 between 12.00 and 14.00 UTC.
Radio Space was in the early 80s a popular Free Radio Station on FM in the region ‘Westhoek’ in Belgium. The station finished forced the broadcast in November 1984.
This year they are having a reunion from the same location in Hoogstade, in the Western part of Belgium, with a 3 day broadcast on the FM 94.9 MHz for the region but also a 2 hour broadcast for Europe on 6070 kHz.
During these 2 hours you will hear the program “The European Top 40 of the 80s”. Admits, more European is not possible via this short wave frequency!
Reception reports are very welcome and are 100% answered with a special Radio Space E-QSL card!
