Panic on MW yesterday Saturday ...

[OZNRH]

Hi here

Never before have I at once (1600 - 1700 kHz) heard so many Dutchmen active at once. Many of them lying on top of each other, with some few kHz spacing. So it was a nightmare of interference tones to listen MW up here in Denmark .

I only got hold of a few station names at the low end .. Black Panther on 1611 with powerful 20 kHz. sideband, Baroness was around 1613 with a fine signal, 1614 a new station, in 1619 and 1620, new stations. I stopped my transmitter on 1616 when a friend of mine (800 meters away) called me and said he would not listen to me more because of interference . Higher up on 1700 kHz. again wild battle between stations.

So what is this happening on 'good old MW' ?

Hi Oene.

For example, to delete it? or what do you mean. I only describe what I experienced up here in Denmark on Saturday night, but it may be hard to hear / read, or what?
Remember the problem is also, this spread out to must of Europa, not only to me Denmark. Therefore I will just tell about it here.

You only understand this, if you life here in the The Netherlands..and you know as an ole pirat that groundwaves are about 80-100km, so they can not hear each other..or live to close to each other to hear stations what we called "afstand amateurs"

Good idea to switch off the power button of your radioset and go to bed

Hi Again here

Yeah, Yeah, I have understand the signal, close the 'abscess' and stick you to your own business.. You are going into Dutch property .

But I am sure that we all want to 'live' a little longer (in the 'Authorities attention') if there was a bit more 'self band culture'.

About to be able to hear each other (also in Holland). Use the Dutch Web SDR, it can hear the most of what happening also in the Netherlands:

Here you can see the most, also the size of your sideband.

Remember. We / I wish to be a delight for the listeners, not play an 'Interference concert'.

No more about it, remember I just make a small report of what I have experienced..
