Subject: [HCDX]: RAI 846
I have received information from Rome that RAI
846kHz has been shut down.
Apparently, the electric field generated in the
area around the TX site was
well above permitted levels and excided
60V/m. I have heard that local
legislation permits a maximum
level of 12V/m around inhabited areas. As of
now, there is no MW
coverage for RAI channel 1 in much of the country.
Could any of the Italian participants on HCDX
comment on this, whether 846 is still silent or, if on air, anything has
happened to their signal levels?
