Kalundborg transmitter 90th anniversary Aug 29


The Danmarks Radio (DR) transmitter site at Kalundborg is 90 years old on 29th August according to this DR article. It still operates a limited daily schedule on 243 kHz LW, at least until 2019.
Includes comments from Jen's Christian Seeberg who gave us a tour of the site when the final DSWCI meeting was held there in October last year (see Nov 2016 'Communication'). Also describes how the masts were saved from being blown up by German occupation troops in iWW2.
