ARLA/CLUSTER: Programa 'Radio DARC' estreou-se no passado fim de semana em 6070 kHz

'Radio DARC' debuts on ham-operated shortwave outlet

ARRL report the inaugural transmission of the '*Radio DARC*' Amateur Radio
program aired over the March 21-22 weekend on 6070 kHz

The German-language program was produced in cooperation with Germany’s
national Amateur Radio society — the Deutscher Amateur Radio Club (DARC). A
group of amateurs in Germany obtained a license to broadcast on the 49
meter shortwave broadcast channel after German national broadcaster the
Deutsche Welle closed down a 500 kW shortwave broadcast transmitter near
Munich. Using parts scavenged from the Deutsche Welle site, the ham group
built up a 10 kW transmitter.

“The response was overwhelming,� said Rainer Englert, DF2NU.
“Our dreams were exceeded many times over. The team got over 1500 reception
reports from 11 European countries.� These even included S-9 reports from
Russia and Iceland. Englert said the station puts in a signal that’s often
60 dB over S-9 within Germany, adding that it will take weeks to answer all
QSL requests and comments. The signal has been heard in North America, but
it has competition on that channel.
