[CW] Grimeton Radio SAQ Transmission on 24. October 2021

[D.J.J. Ring, Jr.]

One of the first CW stations, SAQ - born in the days of "Ye Spark".


*NOTICE:*

For all CW enthusiasts who can receive 17.2 khz here I will forward the
message from Grimeton Radio SAQ, the last remaining machine transmitter
from 1924. The transmission can also be receive via web-sdr Twente,
Netherlands.

The sigs are strong, at least in Europe, but also readable overseas when
the conds are good. Necessary is an antenna far away from any man made
noise.
