Zenith Classic Rock on AM Stereo

Trick of the Tail

Waterford-based temp station Zenith Classic Rock is unique in many ways, but one of the most interesting items of uniquity is the AM Stereo transmission.

Its on 1584kHz, with 1kW of power.

Standard radios will receive the signal in mono of course, but for any enthusiasts who have an AM-Stereo compatible radio, the sound is amazing!

Here's a link to a webstream which is relaying the AM Stereo off-air:
