Ukraine

Ukrainian MW transmitters on 657, 873, 1278, 1404 kHz have been off air since January 1. It seems that somebody decided to switch them on only upon improvement of the situation with power supply. Or at least allocation of some funds….

In addition, the transmitter in Kurisove (1278 kHz) has some technical malfunction according to a recent interview given by an ex-Vice-Director of the National Radio Company of Ukraine.

Low-power station Radio Z100 (0,2 kW acc. to MWlist) from Milano has been heard quite often during the last week.
In the Loggings-section are two reports of the station, one from United Kingdom and one from Denmark.

The philippine AM stations or most of them give all details at sign on and sign off including licence number etc and a list of technical personal – The exception is the networked stations who just drop carrier on or off at sign on and sign off.

Many of the stations sign off well before midnight local time and also some of them dont come on the air until 6am or later.
The big stations sign on at 4am local time and sign off either 11pm or midnight.

There are one or two that run 24/7 down the lower end of the AM band.

Greece

Greek UNID 1260 kHz / 1233 kHz,
think those ‘grey’ stations are not your focus but have reported both tonight in A-DX. my sources to the Greek scene very limited, also I had asked lately Zacharias without response. Who is keen on this? I am quite curious as I see and hear here in Eastern Austria many surprises, of course also on X-Band 1602+, also there I heard today 4 Serbian stations in the evening.

Paul de Haan reports on the Free Radio Forum:

22 January 2023
It looks as if Radio Seagull is no longer broadcasting on Medium Wave in Holland. The 747Khz frequency they were sharing with Radio Emmeloord is no longer listed. Can anyone in the North of Holland confirm if Radio Emmelord/Seagull is still on 747 Khz or not? I have also noticed that the programme schedule on the Radio Seagull web site has changed from Central European Time to UK time.

Radio Seagull is on 1476Khz from Coalville in the UK (2000 to 0800)

In response its others commented that it is off air, low power 747 is on again from TX site Pietersbierum at LPAM 100 watts. Dutch GPO will connect the site to internet again so Seagull can be on air on 747 again. At the moment its non stop music.

Radio Z100 Milano.
I’m away from home and I can’t do it but try to compare the signal on 1206 khz with the streaming of Radio Z100 Milano.
They tell me they are in parallel (google translated).
