Radio St Helena Day is set for Saturday 15 November and will be
broadcast on 11092.5 kHz USB on Saturday, 15 November 2008.
Transmissions to Europe will be between 2100 and 2230UTC.

Altlantica Del-sol' that was on 11 Mhz and was beaming home sick music
to the new occupants of the Falkland islands , back in 1982 ish ?

It was Radio Atlantico del Sur and it broadcast via Ascension Island, I think
only on 9710.

Drake R7, R8, R8A and R8B
70' and 200' wires
I swear by, not at, Drake receivers.

And, as always, don't do business with The Huntington Investment Company.
