  • It closed down completely in 1992, came back a few years ago with a classic rock format using Digital Radio Mondiale format(digital radio over AM bands) on 7145kHz Shortwave from 9.00-15:45 UK time(10:00-16:45 CET) then 7295kHz Shortwave from 15:45-17:00 UK time

    (16:45-18:00CET) using various SW transmitters in Germany then withdrew the transmissions citing technical problems.

  • It's a shame nothing was made covering the final closedown on satellite and shortwave,after 1440kHz closed they continued for a further year in stereo across Europe via the Astra 1A satellite on channel 13 via 7.38/7.56Mhz PANDA1 stereo and internationally worldwide at various times via 15350kHz 10kW erp Shortwave and 6090kHz 50kW erp Shortwave from SW transmitters located at Junglinster Luxembourg Europe.
