ADF
I heard it was possible the hear some radio station using the ADF. Does someone knows if it is true and if yes what are the frequency's!!! :)

LW - MW reception
Using your ADF - BBC Droitwich is 198 kHz - Luxembourg is 236 kHz
Brussels RTBF (Wavre antennas) is 621 kHz. xxx Bon amusement :ok: Happy contrails |
In Africa/Southern Europe
Music on the following frequencies, all times GMT/UTC 1287 0100-0200 873 2300 810 0100-0200 (Jazz from 0300) 855 2200 756 all night 927 from 0000 1431 most times from 1800 1422 most times after 2200 //// 1413 BBC 1323 BBC 639 BBC 1593 VOA |
Any stations xmitting USB HF music?

xxx Yes - you can get music on HF, but AM is better than USB for music. BBC World Service has music at times - Get frequencies on their website. Maybe better for music would be Radio Netherlands Wereld Omroep. My tastes for music are likely to be different than yours. I used to listen to Classical... Radio Moscow was good for that. xxx Sorry, retired, my notebook with HF frequencies not handy...! Generally music stations can be found on 13, 16, 19, 25, 31, 41, 49 meters. See Google to get frequencies in mHz. Then proceed in these bands by steps of 5 kHz. Try as an example between 9700 and 9995 kHz for music. High frequencies good during day, lower good at night. xxx :ok: Happy contrails |
If you tune the ADF correctly it will point towards the singer's current location...
|
5 live 909 or 693 is good to while away the weekend jaunts listening to the footy.
|
Any stations xmitting USB HF music? Try these... 6055 from 1600 UTC 9720 from 0000 UTC 11,730 liklewise as above 15,825 country music 7295 Air China Many others, switch around to find to your satisfaction. |
Well what I heard is back in the day... Pilots would tune an AM station to find there way home:) Prety cool.
|
Back in the day? As in yesterday for me? (Yankee FPL, handy local AM station at destination's VRP in unfamiliar aerea)

Using a radio station ADF signal for navigation is a big no no. That' s probably why I am still alive after 40 years flying. Anyway, you'll only get good reception in the TMA, and there are more important issues. I recall a Brazillian B737 crashing in the eighties, because the pilots were listening to a football match and ran out of fuel. Listen to the radio at home or in your car. Better still, become a DJ and leave flying to the professionals.

"If you tune the ADF correctly it will point towards the singer's current location..."
At last, a way of finding if Elvis really has left the building:) Yep, as already stated 909 and 693 for BBC Radio 5 ( and you can sometimes get that out to 30 West on the North Atlantic, gives you UK sport and the state of the M25 carpark, and makes a pleasant change from listening to the Baseball scores :E) and 198 for Radio 4 and the Test Cricket...oh hang on, perhaps not :ugh: |
Frequency
Amplitude Modulation uses a range of frequencies 530 to 1710 kilocycles. You can find stations within that range. Make no mistake that broadcast radio stations must not be used for navigation.

AM...? - Call it MW please...
Hola cubaclagan -
xxx Remember many Ppruners are from the rest of the world, where a frequency "band" is not expressed (like in North America) by its modulation type. AM is a mode of radio transmission and not a "band". In the USA, they call the MW Medium Waves the "AM Band", and there is no LW "Long Waves" in use by the people to "listen to music" on their transistor radios. xxx Would it confuse people to mention that aviation VHF R/T is... using AM...? And that HF sets often have a selector for AM, USB or LSB... I listened to truckers CB "Good Buddies" on my HF when I was flying in USA...! xxx Sure - as you and others mention "do not use radio broadcast stations" for navigation, it remains though, that in North America, the FCC requires radio station identitifications "so many times per hour"... to confirm their location. With little airplanes in California, I often made a "KGIL" approach on 1260 kHz to land in Van Nuys, and listen to news on KCBS between Honolulu and Los Angeles on 1070... with the ADF pointing to the way I was going to... That is the way Lindbergh and Doolittle did it flying the mail in their days... xxx Not for navigation use, never meant to prevent you from getting a general idea of directions. At 30š West on the Atlantic, I always tuned BBC on 198 kHz on the ADF. If we lost our Doppler, our Loran-A and Consol, we could still get a QDM towards Ireland and UK thanks to... the BBC...! xxx What is your 10-4 by the way...? :} Happy contrails |
Don't waste your time with all the other dross mentioned in other posts, tune in to 1053 or 1089 and listen to TalkSport radio, the only place to get all the latest sports goss..............(proper sport - not baseball (rounders) etc.)

Listening to the cricket \ footie on the HF used to be a favourite passtime of many an engineer on board the ships I once worked on
Quite alarming initially but over time it's just accepted...beats the other stuff thats out there!! |
If you tune the ADF correctly it will point towards the singer's current location... |
If you like classic rock:
1053 for Canberra ACT Australia 1080 for Perth, WA Australia Lots of other stations...each and every one except the two above...CRAP!:} HP |
