QSL BR6 Bodegraven Reeuwijk 107.8 MHz

Another nice QSL from a local radio station in The Netherlands. This time from BR6, the local station for Bodegraven & Reeuwijk. John Bekker was so kind to confirm my reception report. He wrote that they have no QSLs, but in thThey have been heard as far as Wolfsburg, Germany, which isn’t bad given their power of only 50 Watts.

BR6 is also part of the RTV Midden Holland group (see my post on RTV Krimpenerwaard). Their antenna is located on an advertising column in an industrial park in the south of Bodegraven. Just over 10 kms from my QTH!

I hate these ugly advertising columns, but if you put a radio antenna on it, I can live with it😉

By the way… did you know that Bodegraven, like my own QTH Woerden is situated along the old river Rhine? Which was once the northern frontier, the “Limes” of the Roman Empire…

    That leaves the question, on which side of the Rhine?
    Did you qualify as civilized, or only as useless barbarians (like all places that couldn’t be conquered)?
