Romania

Status of Antena Satelor Romania in 153 kHz?.
Since 1 August 2025, all medium wave and long wave transmitters of the Romanian Broadcasting Corporation (SRR) have closed down from 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM Romanian local time. In the morning, however, the MW transmitters appear to be switched on as early as 5:50 AM; the LW already around 5:30 AM. I will investigate this more closely and also monitor when the program sound actually switches on in the morning. Medium wave is the only way to cover the vast, partly mountainous country to every corner. Furthermore, there is a need to serve the Romanian minorities in neighboring countries. At night, the domestic program has been (at least so far) easily received in large parts of Europe.
