ARC Newsflash: Radio Nord Revival back on Saturday, March 12!

The anniversary broadcasts from Radio Nord Revival have been a great success and the transmissions from the 10 kW SW transmitter on 6060 have been received with good quality over most of Europe. Even the small 60 W MW transmitter on 1512 kHz from Sala, Sweden was heard as far afield as Germany!

On Saturday, March 12, Radio Nord Revival will be on the air again. This time we are broadcasting from another location, Kvarnberget in Vallentuna, some 30 km from Stockholm City. The power is 1 kW using a 37 m. vertical antenna so this time you can expect a far better signal. The frequency is still 1512 kHz.

We just got the confirmation from The Swedish Post and Telecom Agency (PTS) that our application for MW 1512 kHz and SW 6060 kHz has been approved. On March 8 at 0848 UTC/GMT (0948 CET) we will start by broadcasting the opening of Radio Nord just as it was aired on this date in 1961. We will also make some short test transmissions on these frequencies before our regular programme starts. Power will be 1 kW on 1512 kHz and 10 kW on 6060 kHz. The MW tx is located at Kvarnberget, Vallentuna some 35 km from Stockholm city and the SW tx outside the town of Sala.
