Thanks - I have heard the big carrier at 138 odd but didnt know the station
name.
Alaska ? well if he is putting a crocodile clip onto the above ground
insulated overland pipe-line for a beverage antenna then no wonder ;-).
I wish Brighton had one.

Dear Brian,
Laurence is KL1X in Alaska - currently I think he has the distance
record
for reception of UK 136kHz stations.
DCF39 is a tele-switching station in Germany which transmits a carrier
on
138.83kHz, interspersed with FSK data bursts. It has about 40kW ERP,
so is
a convenient beacon for DX stations, although not so much if you are a
DL
station! There is extensive info on DK8KW's web pages at
http://www.qru.de/dcf39-beacon.html
