Hi Mike,

Given your location, I'd wager that it was CBK, broadcasting from Saskatchewan on 540KHz. I regularly hear stations from the midwest when the broadcast band opens up after dark.

CBC plays programming from other countries national broadcasters between about 1am and 6am local.

Hello Paul,

I found out it is a CBC station in British Columbia re-broadcasting Radio Sweden and other stations. I didn't think the frequency was right being on a even number. I recall EU stations being 9kc spacing not the 10kc of NA.

tnx,

Hello Mike, LF

Radio Sweden normally broadcasts on 1179kHz.


Here is a fairly up-to-date list of European medium-wave stations:

Quoting Mike WE0H :

I am listening to 540kc on my 600m vertical to a station that ID'd as
Radio Sweden. It is all British accent people talking in the news. Is
this signal coming from Europe or is it a rebroadcast from North
America? The signal is 5/9 with hardly any fading. I know the band
conditions on 600 meters has been excellent all last week and still now,
but this seems weird hearing this station on 540kc.

tnx,
Mike
