YLE's and NRK's regional stations

In the beginning of this year I have been especially interested in the stations located next to me. It has been a great pleasure to listen FM and MW bands with the Sangean. At first i want to inform that two Norskrikskringkasting's transmitter are catchable on MW. 630 kHz located in Vigra (100 kW) and 675 kHz located in Rost (20 kW). even though the DX-news were tolding that Vigra will close down permanently in the end of last year. The best of all is that NRK has local programs at least in the hours during the local morning time.

About the YLE, I have received 5 regional stations broadcasting on FM based in Oulu, Kokkola, Kuopio, Kajaani and Tampere. All of them has QSLed already with a full data QSL letters by e-mail. The biggest surprise was the telephone interview made by Kainuun Radio about the radio hobby and listening the distant broadcasts. It's always a pleasure to make the hobby better-known.

In fact Kainuun Radio, located in the northern part of Finland is one of the most difficult catches here, next morning I received an another YLE station Radio Extrem located in Esbo, South Finland on the same frequency so it's all about the conditions. I have reported also stations based in Mikkeli and Lahti in the year 2002 and they verified by the letter.
