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
