The annual summertime broadcasts of RTI's German service beamed towards Europe will be on the air this year during the month of July instead of August.
Test transmissions will be conducted on Saturday June 25 as follows:
11995 17:00-17:10
11995 17:30-17:40
9545 19:00-19:10
7240 19:20-19:30
7250 19:40-19:50
One hour broadcasts will be aired on 11 MHz from 17:00-18:00 and on either 9 or 7 MHz from 19:00-20:00 on these dates:
July 8,9,10,15,16,17,22,23,24,29,30,31.
A special QSL will be issued. E-mail deutsch (at) rti.org.tw, or use the contact form on their Web site.
The announcement on RTI's Web page shows a photo of the two Ampegon 2 x 2 antennas. But these are fixed at 352 and 002 degrees, covering East Asia.
Rather the German service will use 315 and 325 degrees older fixed 4 x 4 curtain antennas as before.
