Re: [HCDX] [dxld] Re: Radio Öömrang, Sunday 1600?
GERMANY Radio Öömrang 15245 kHz Wertachtal 500 kW at 1557-1700 UT on Feb 21
only.
At 1557 UT sender signed on at Wertachtal. My location is situated like in
the main lobe direction of 300 degrees towards zones 4,8,9 via Stuttgart,
Brussels, London, Edinburgh, and then Nova Scotia, into US Washington etc.
A smidgen fluttery which is not surpring in the 19 meterband, some 120
kilometers away of Wertachtal transmission site, S=9+20dB which is 55555
localy. At 16.00:04 UT anncmt in English, BUT STILL old details of last year
like February 21, 2009, mentioned 15230 kHz and Juelich 100 kW.
Then started in Friesian (lower German) language, which is similar to Dutch
West Frisian language spoken in North Western Netherlands. The Kiel student
Anna read the (local?) news and also a weather report of North Sea area
could be traced.
Powerful Wertachtal 500 Kilowatt Signal should "twist the spoons" in North
America ?

It`s loud S9+22 and clear on 15245; must be aimed toward us (or New York,
whose local time is mentioned.) There was a brief English ID at the start,
rest in strange dialect of German. What is it? Claimed to be using Juelich.
With a once-a-year broadcast, guess it`s hard to keep up with the latest
demolitions. Talking about megabits per second, etc. Just what is the
purpose of this?
My questions are conveniently answered briefly in English at 1619: ``The
free voice of Frisian people, welcome to our broadcast...,`` on 15230
k-H-zed. Yeeech, once a year and they get the frequency wrong. Will they
have it corrected by 2011y??
Next plugs their Facebook site. http://www.facebook.com/oomrang
Without the umlauts? Have not tried yet.
Glenn, OK
