252 kHz RTÉ Radio 1 received in Wexford, Ireland (7 Aug 2017)


My lovely wife and I took a well-earned vacation to Dublin, Ireland during 2-9 August 2017.


Of course, I brought along a portable AM/LW/SW/FM radio capable of receiving the Longwave broadcast band. Listening to Longwave in Europe is something I've always wanted to do...

We took a day-trip by train south to Wexford on 7 August 2017, and I had a few moments to try out the radio while sitting in the square, just in front of Wexford Train Station.

The first and strongest signal was local Irish RTE Radio 1 on 252 kHz.

I videoed about a minute of it for posterity.
