With or without echo, the problem is the same.
Here I cannot null UK networks like 1053 or 1089. And "local away" of my
SplatAway fails also

Remember the 70's? Spain had little tx and they were off during the night, same
with many other countries. No need for Perseus or other hi-tec rx, a simple
radio pulled them in.


BTW:
Hessicher Rundfunk will close down its two 594 Khz tx by the end of 2008, due
to high financial costs.
Money is the best tx killer :-)
