I show Radio Ukraine as having a 100,000 watt transmitter. I haven't
yet heard of a station with a mil output wattage (not that one might not
exist). "Voice of Russia" is an 800,000 watt powerhouse, though. FWIW,
I have yet to pull Radio Ukraine, either.


Nope, the info is correct. They have not one but 3 transmitters at
1000 KW.

Here is the link I used to confirm it: http://www.tdp.info/ukr.html


Whoops, I mean they have six (6) at 1000KW. Got some birdy sounding
interference too, he,he.

That's what it says, all right, but I'm still wondering about the
possibility that the reporter for that info on the site has one too many
zeros. I can't help but wonder about one country - and not a terribly
rich one at all - with six one million watt transmitters. Maybe - but
it doesn't seem likely, to me.
I'm getting it this evening clearly, with some interference, on 9810,
too. But it's no stronger than most stations from that part of the
world that beam broadcasts to the west, and not nearly as strong as
Voice of Russia usually is (though I know that doesn't prove anything
with all the variables involved).
