Motala longwave update

Lennart Deimert of the Motala LW radio group informs us that the exciter of the transmitter is working well but the power amplifier is not working properly. Therefore it is not clear whether there wil be any broadcast on LW 189 kHz on the 2nd of May. Stay tuned for further updates.

Test transmission from Motala longwave, Sweden 191 kHz

Christian Stödberg writes in the Skywaves DX Facebook group:
"2nd May will there be test transmission from the old longwave transmitter in Motala, Sweden on 189 kHz. I will check power and time and reply later."
It's not the original 150kW transmitter though a new, smaller one with low power.
