Work has commenced on schedule. So an opportunity to dx Algeria. The Tipaza Longwave transmitter broadcasts the French-speaking station Alger Chaîne 3 on the longwave frequency of 252 kHz. It is situated near Tipaza at 36°33’58” N and 2°28’50” E, and reportedly has a transmission power of 1500 kW during the day and 750 kW at night. The antenna is a 355-meter tall guyed mast, which is the second-tallest structure of Algeria.
