the largest
amount of bilge imaginable.The content of these
missions range from discussions about radio,audio,computing and other related
subjects through to social techno babble. Actually most of it is very silly
and serves to modulate the carrier to comply with regulations.The program

TRANSMISSION TIMES, 2230 Saturday to 0130 or later Sunday and 2230 wed till 2400 Eastern Australian Time
VHF. 147.475 Mhz fm.
If you reside within about 100Km from Melbourne you should
be able to receive the VHF service on any scanner or two meter transceiver
using just an simple antenna or hand held equipment. For a gain antenna
or elevated installation the range will be much increased.
ONE SIXTY METERS. 1865 Khz am.
It's more fun to listen on one sixty but some people do have
trouble with television line buzz or mains ference not to mention computers
and electrical equipment. An out door antenna or better still a directional
loop can often solve the problem.
The
ground wave should extend over the metro area and beyond but there is a
zone between 50 to 150 Km where the signals are often very week due to
the fact that the ground wave has dissipated and the sky wave is non existent
or has heavy fading. Depending on conditions the skywave reception may
be quite good interstate.
EIGHTY METERS 3.670 Mhz AM.
This service for the inland and the islands should
have coverage over most of Australia and the near pacific if conditions
are good and fills in gaps that 160 misses like between the night time skywave and groundwave zones.
