We are currently on air with our standby 10watt TX due to a fault in the 100watt TX HT supply, can anyone hear this broadcast? any reports would be very interesting with such low power!!! we shall close down around 10am asking you to join us on 9770khz with the mighty KBC and FRS Holland through to 1530utc.

Hi Iann
Thanks for the report, yes the whole broadcast from 8am UK time until approx 10.10am today is via the 10watt TX! we have no choice I am afraid due to main TX being out of action!!! I am pleased with the sinpo which you gave, also I think ukdxer reported hearing us for a short while, but it will be impossible for us to battle with the higher power stations if they are near to our channel, but thanks for letting us know.
We should have no problems being heard on 9770khz at 12 noon!!!!

At 10H23 UTC your signal on 6254 kHz is back here, 43333, signal 7-8.
That's good for 10 watts.

Hi Iann/Michel
Thanks for the signal updates, I must say I am very pleased with our little 10watt TX today!! having not been used for at least 2 years with no tests.. I just flicked the HT switch on and away it went like a dream!! however the MOD seem very loud on this rig which helps to compensate for the low power.
The 9770khz broadcast was received very well on both days, several reports have already filtered through, which we will deal with after Xmas.
All the best for 2009
Roger.
