Domestic radio stations that can be heard from Adelaide during daylighthours.

The day readings (except where indicated) were originally taken at 13:00 on 17-Feb-2004 (GMT+1030) using a GrundigYacht Boy 400, indoors, and are typical of what can be heard during local daylight hours on any day. The day readingswere most recently reconfirmed on 30-Dec-2005.Link: Domestic radio stations that can be heard from Canberra.The next update to this page will be a clean-up involving a replacement of the location links below with Google Earth placemarks and the addition of links to eachstation website, as seen on the Canberra page.

The number quoted is in the direction of maximum gain. No details ofthe directional radiation pattern or orientation is given in the RTBSB.It seems during the day anything over 500km away cannot be heard at all. The RTBSB lists some very powerfulstations available just beyond that distance, but none are heard. Also, it is interesting that the 2BH signal is more steadyand clearly heard than the other very faint stations, despite it having a low transmit power and being almost the furthest away.One reason could be that groundwaves travel further at lower frequencies. 2BH transmits 500W on 567kHz. 3ML transmits 2kW on 1467kHz. 2BH is 130km furtherbut sounds a lot better. The stations with paths mostly over water also perform well for their power and distance, especially5LN.The receiver has selectivity issues with the powerful local stations. With the receiver in DX (high sensitivity) mode there issplatter in the adjacent channels of 5RN, 5AN, 5PB, 5DN and 5AA limiting observability of neighbouring distant stations.Of course, night reception pulls in many more MF stations (an additional 40+) from across Australia. Often two distant stations(or more) are heard on the same channel and one can only be discriminated by steering the antenna or waiting for the other station(s)to fade.

Tumby Bay is the likely one.* Which ABC transmitter is it? Perhaps Wudinna.Useful Links: SA Community Radio Stations hereand here.

* Technically 2300kHz-2495kHz is within the MF band.National (ABC) stationsThe ABC has a domestic shortwave service, withtransmitters in the Northern Territory. It provides ABC Local Radio on the following frequencies to remote and outback regions,including the Kimberley (remote North West).Frequency (kHz)StationLocationTx Power (W)ContentReception*Approx.

It would seem that theABC switches frequencies to suit environmental conditions (sunspots and seasons etc), keeping three more in reserve,just in case. So we should expect the day and night frequencies table to change from time to time.Privately-operated stationsIt could be argued that this section doesn't belong on this web page as none of the following stations can be heard. But domestic HFis an unusual class of broadcasting these days and the following makes for an interesting watch-list.Information from the ACMA Register of Radiocommunication Licencesshows that at least three such broadcasters exist. Some websites claim that these domestic HFbroadcast licenses may have been bought just as a low-cost path intodigital radio:"If you own a broadcast licence in Australia when digital radio is introduced, you'll automatically be granted alicence to broadcast Australia-wide in digital. That's a lot of data and new services, potentially lucrative, which will come on stream.You'll have much the same rights whether you've spent $25 million at auction for a metropolitan FM licence, or, a few hundred bucksfor a Domestic HF Licence." -- New Zealand DX Times, November 2002.I've since spoken with the operator of Station X (the primary subject of the above quote). The circumstantial and speculativereasoning in the DX Times article was way off. A grab for digital was not contemplated.Frequency (kHz)StationLocationTx Power (W)ContentReceptionApprox.
