Hello Petr and all OMs!
That is fine! Be lucky, you are 212km away :-)
I was briefly receiving
on the new band as well. I listened to signals from NDB "RP", "PT", "VIB",
"BIA" :
477kHz 1018/1030 RP Malacky/Kuchyna
SVK JN88NL
475kHz 1014/1018
PT Petrovskoye
RUS LO01CR
480kHz 1020/1025
VIB Viterbo
ITA JN62AK
474kHz 1031/1034
BIA Rzeszow/Jasionka POL
KO10BC
Well, despite my problem with huge "RP" signal I am sure, that the
band will be usable for me. I am going to build a new beam antenna on my
garden. Its minimum receiving must be direct to "RP", of course :-)

Hello all,
I am not so pesimistic, more exactly, I am a bit more lucky. I am abt 212
km away from RP.
I made a first reception test this Sunday. RP is the strongest signal on
the band but it doesn’t bother much. Besides it I heard two more beacons. The
band is more spacy and much calmer than 136kHz. Looking forward to the day it is
crowded by HAM sigs.
Listen to recordings at:

Hello OMs!
I read all your comments about new HAM band, they were written in the last
days. To tell the truth, to use this band will be a problem for me and all
HAMS in our region. There is a Slovak NDB beacon "RP" located right between 472
and 479kHz.
CALL : RP
FREQ: 477kHz
Modulation: +/- 1060Hz side bands
QTH: Malacky/Kuchyna
QRA: JN88NL
My QTH is only 37km far from the "RP". The beacon´s signal is
constantly at least +50dB up to noise (in fact +60dB in the modulation
gaps). The carrier is not problem, but the worst thing is the wide strong noise
during the transmission. It is about +25dB - see the picture. I made sure
myself, that it was not a problem of my RX. The situation is the same, when an
attenuator between antenna and RX is used.
I hope that "RP" will not be a problem for you as well!
