QSL Radio Babylona 1008 kHz

April 8, 2023 / / 0 Comments

Earlier this year I received an e-QSL for my reception of Radio Babylona. This station from the province of Groningen in NE part of the Netherlands can be heard at my home QTH, but I made my reception during a stay in nearby Exloo, over a distance of only some 10 kilometers. This explains the excellent SINPO rating.
Originally Radio Babylona was on air all week, but this was a bit too much work, so now you can listen to the station in the weekend only. You can read more about this station on their website.

QSL Neverland Radio 1035 AM

I received a polite email QSL Neverland Radio 1035 AM. With 100 Watt this LPAM (Low Power AM) station broadcasts from the city of Venlo, in the province of Limburg in The Netherlands. That is about 120 km SE from my location, and during day time their signal strength was low but without interference.
I couldn’t find a website for this station, but I found a YouTube channel on which they seem to run a live video when they are on the air. I received them between 14:21 – 15:00 h Dutch local time. According to MWLIST they are on air Saturdays only between 10 – 14 h UTC.

Kilrock is installing a new antenna

Kilrock is installing an new antenna. The previous one went down in a storm. I’m a fan of this station because of their choice of music. They also have one of the nicest e-QSL cards you can get! The You-Tube video gives you a pretty good idea about the LPAM (low power AM) scene in the Netherlands… I’m told they hope that their antenna is up and running by Easter. All is “weather prevailing”. And as a cyclist I can tell you weather hasn’t been much in the last weeks even though it is supposed to be spring.
Anyway for you radio enthusiasts in Europe, you should have better opportunities to receive this nice station from ‘s Gravendeel on 1287 AM!

QSL 1134AM Ooijen

March 25, 2023 / / 0 Comments

1134 AM is another LPAM (low power AM) station that you can hear from the Netherlands. It operates from the village of Ooijen, about 51 kilometers SW of my QTH. Their beautiful e-QSL gives a good impression of the pretty scenery in and around Ooijen.
As they say themselves on their website www.1134am.nl :
“Of course Am is no longer of this time, but what could be more fun to receive your favorite music on your own radio instead of your telephone or fm and dab. Am brings that little bit more atmosphere for real enthusiasts and can be received from great distances“
I couldn’t agree more!

QSL Kilrock 1287 kHz

Kilrock is a low power medium wave station (LPAM) operating from the village of ‘s Gravendeel, southwest of the city of Dordrecht, the Netherlands. The village is located on the banks of the tidal river “Dordtsche Kil”. So now you know where the station name comes from.
But Kilrock also sounds like Kilroy. “Kilroy was here” was graffiti drawn by American troops in World War II. The text was often accompanied by a man looking over a wall… as in the Kilrock QSL, which is one of my favourites.

A QSL Radio Paradijs, 1476 kHz. This LPAM station with 100 Watts is located at 16 kilometers distance from my QTH in Utrecht, the Netherlands. And indeed, as stated on the QSL email I received today I can receive this station on a pocket radio as well.
