[QUOTE="deeptho, post: 1151852, member: 215446"] Long wave may be disappearing but it is not dead yet. In recent weeks, I could receive Iceland (189 will close down in 2024?), bbc four (198 easy), Polsky radio (225) and chaine 3 (252). It is a pity that it will eventually close down. It is pretty cool to cover thousands of kilometers with a single transmitter and with pretty stable reception. Of course, it is not easy to find radios that can receive it. Medium wave seems to quite crowded with many low power stations (including pirates) coming in. I use a magnetic loop antenna made from central heating tube, a cross country wireless amplifier, a spyverter, an airspy and a computer to get sound. This gives me coverage between 60khz (or probably lower) and 30MHz with one antenna and pretty clear signals (except for fading) once I found a good location for the antenna. [/QUOTE]
