|   The most interesting part of this, which I forgot 
to include in my first message, was that it is apparantly the Italian 
authorities that have ordered the tx to be shut down, and that the reason for 
this was that they emitted an electric field much higher than the permitted 
level.  Perhaps the RAI 846 isn't the only high-powered tx in Europe with 
this problem.    Regards,---From the world's northernmost

  Sendt: 20. april 2000 08:23 Emne: [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?   Regards, ---From the world's northernmost
