Heard this station hear on USA east coast 6-25-2008 very nicely. Propogation was a bit off, but signal was loud and clear. Nice signal from a small republic of about 4,300,000 people and one of the poorer countries in Eastern Europe. Thanks for sharing this youtube with us!

Thanks for your comment and interest. Yes, Pridnestrovye still runs amok on the SW bands, it's difficult to track them anymore. The summer propagation in Spain is dreadful. Hopefully we will have improvement within two months. All the best.

Thanks... I recorded and posted it because I know that Radio PMR is a difficult catch in the USA. It comes in clear here at my QTH in Spain...

You know, I REALLY miss the 'good ol' days' of the Cold War; a battle of ideas and philosophies from all over the world in many different languages. Now it seems it's all religious broadcasting. Don't get me wrong, I am a Christian, but there really was something about dx in those days!!!

@vladimir88x7

If PMR means Personal Mobile Radio... I think you cant hear PMR on the SW bands, because the PMR radio broadcasting on 446Mhz...

@radu8989 555,000 approximately, and officially it's status is "breakaway".

I heard Radio PMR once before when I was messing about with my radio, it's a cheap little thing but...I haven't been able to get Radio PMR again. I'll keep trying. Although I wonder if a more powerful radio would help...

Wait...I can listen to PMR with a SW radio? I live in SC USA
