Shortwave australia 4835 kHz

[jwt873]

So it seems a new short wave station has appeared recently on 4835 and 2130 kHz. I've searched and can't find any information on this station. (Location, power, operating schedule, target market).

From searching Google, it appears that 4835 kHz was used in the past, but the station using the frequency packed it in a while back and a new station has taken its place. All I can find are a few very recent YouTube posts of stations logging the transmission.

I haven't heard it at my location yet. Anyone have any more info on this one??

Listening there now.. Picking up WWCR out of Nashville as well. Looks like it will make it difficult to hear the Australian station. Especially if they broadcast at the same time.

Still very little on it. It's not even recognized by Short-Wave Radio Frequency Schedule for BBC in ENGLISH They don't have it in their database yet.

There's been a fairly extensive discussion on the Australian on the World of Radio reflector.

Yes, WWCR is going to make it tough to hear that station. Good test of dynamic range and selectivity
