Hi.
I know you can pick up RTE Radio 1 in 252 on the ADF box, but it's not that exciting alot of the time. Anyone know any others?

In the days when 252 was a music station I once listened to it on the way into Dakar. Sounded great too, weird things skywaves.

How is this done?
675 - Arrow Classic Rock, Brilliant!
198 - News Radio / Live broadcasting bigger sport matches
891 - Radio 538
1215 - Virgin Radio
648 - BBC World Service
Now if you look at these frequencies, you`ll find that all of them add up to either 9 or 18. For instance 6+7+5 = 18 or 1+2+1+5 = 9 If you`re stuck in a part of the world where you don`t know any frequencies try that little formula and you`ll soon find something to listen to :ok:

Remember, All the frequencys you can listen to have to be able to divide with 9.

the divisor by 9 rule does not apply in the US. 660, 710, 560, etc.

hi guys,
why do all the frequencies have to divide by 9?

Different frequency plans in different parts of the globe, Europe adopted a 9kHz channel spacing for AM broadcast, the US uses a 10kHz spacing. That's why the BBC long wave transmitter moved from 200kHz to 198kHz many years ago.
