Best of luck to them ! They have a very long history.

Shame the transmitter is only about 1 Kw.

Its the Manx transmitter. 20 KW if running full power.

Deadly , I thought they had a license for 1 Kw transmitter ?

Should be heard here with a decent radio here then.

The 1KW is for their own Community Licence in Suffolk (due to be on 648khz) Mad_Lad. The relay via Manx on 1368 is on whatever power that the TX is running at these days. It was 20kw but I think it has been lower recently, although still around the 15kw mark.

Yet another superb week end of radio from Radio Caroline North via Manx Radio .
Roll on the next one 28/29 October !!

Yeah, I could only listen to maybe 10 mins unfortunately. 1368 Khz, signal was decent at that time of the day, it was afternoon, forget what time, some fading but ok.

I hope to be able to hear more on my Websdr from Work next week.

Signal now from 1368 Khz is almost 20 db over with an interfering station on the same frequency.

You can hear my Web Sdr here.

Yes I remember reading of the closures to those AM stations, might be less interference at night to Manx, there's no interference to Manx during the day though but the signal is weaker.

Oscarziggy

Nice web sdr -- another one for my list !

Thanks, the future plan is to have multiple antennas and antenna switcher but I don't have much time to figure out how the antenna switcher communicates with the SDR.

Away from the weather there is a treat again in store for the week end 28/29th October when Radio Caroline North team up with Manx Radio to use the Manx Radio MW AM frequency of 1368khz.
Starting at 10:30am on Saturday until 9pm on Sunday.
Happy listening once again to radio as it should be .

pity ofcom gave them 648khz,its a crap channel at nighttime they hardly get 5 miles on that channel after dark.

Oscarziggy

Interesting comments at the end of the transmission -- a bit of back tracking regarding 1368khz and Manx Radio to what was mentioned in one programme by a presenter !
And no solid news about 648khz .
2018 looks like great fun

It was very good on your SDR this afternoon about 15:30 to 16:00 - also on a portable for me out in the garden .
Try again tomorrow as the 648khz test signal is meant to be running still.

[Deleted User]

I probably won't be able to listen tomorrow as we're in Galway for the weekend but I'll try log into my SDR if I can at some point.

Oscarziggy

Reasonable signal on your SDR this afternoon with some fading if you haven't managed to listen .

Not getting 648am in Dublin

[Deleted User]

I can just about pick it up on my WebSdr, with an interfering Spanish station on 639 Khz and another Spanish station at 657 Khz, Now I can't rotate my external antenna but I doubt it would make a difference.

http://emeraldsdr.ddns.net:8073/

Radio Caroline has little hope against these strong stations at 1 Kw, it's sandwiched in between these two strong stations.
