Default Greenland-Interval Signal

This item of interest in the latest DXLD. Greenland used to be on
shortwave on 3999 kHz, but have not operated on shortwave for a good
number of years.

I highly recommend the interval signal site noted at the bottom of the
post.

** GREENLAND. Whatever became of the KNR low-power relay on the 75 m
band? If it could ever be DXed, now is (was) the time. Anyhow, there`s
this: (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

"Sunnia Kalippoq" or "The whaleboat Sonja drags whale" is the title of
the interval signal used by Radio Greenland, according to WRTH. This
elusive melody, now that this remote station is only now available on
low-powered mediumwave and FM, can be heard in a good-quality audio
clip just uploaded to the Interval Signals Online website. In full,
what you'll hear is: a brief announcement in Danish - news jingle -
time check, ID and sign-off announcement in Greenlandic - national
anthem. All this on Interval Signals Online at

Thanks for the link. It's been a while, but I did hear KNR years
ago fairly often on 650kHz. Have promised myself to resurrect the old
mediumwave tuned loop antenna with positive feedback (Q-multiplier)
this year. Worked a treat, that did. Logged many stations from your
side of the pond too. If I remember correctly, always seemed to have
rather weak modulation on their carrier. Perhaps they used a cheap/old
transmitter. Either that or Greenlanders don't like too much noise and
hype on their radio. ;-)

Over here, we have separate buttons for those special
numbers. Consequently, our phones are twice as big. ;-)
