We used to have an NDB at the local airport, COI, located about a mile from my house. Was useful for testing radios but it is gone now.
In my collection of "junque" I have a Blaupunct AM car radio that came out of a VW Superbug that had been imported from Germany. It has two bands, one the usual BCB and an LW band, about 150 KHZ to 290 KHZ, curiously enough labeled "1.5 to 2.9" I assume there are broadcast LW stations still in use in Europe?
