Good listening
(Fabrizio Magrone, Forli-ITA, mwdx Sept 2)
I can give more info on the 1503 kHz.
In the next few months the 600 watt transmitter will move to 1503 kHz. A
1200 watt transmitter will be used for 1512 kHz, probably with a new
vertical 1/4 antenna. And according to the station owner, they are on the
air 24hrs and not 0700-2330 LT. But that is something I cannot verify from
here of course.
