Gothenburg special-event station observed on 981kHz.
On the occasion of the Gothenburg Classic Car Weekend (24-25 May) a broadcast from the city’s radio museum was observed on 981kHz mediumwave from 0830UT tune-in on 24 May. Programming was 1930s British popular music such as “The Lambeth Walk” and Swedish versions of old UK/US pop hits such as “Leva Livet” (Lesley Gore’s “It’s My Party”). Announcements were few and far between and of course in Swedish but eventually there was something resembling an ID – not the name of the station as such but identification as “a broadcast from the radio museum in Gothenburg” followed by the frequency. This low-powered (10W) weak and noisy signal was only traceable via a remote webSDR situated in Grötö, an island in the Gothenburg archipeligo. I was expecting the station to also be on air today (Sunday 25 May), the second day of the car event, but there’s no trace as of 0800UT.
