Réglement en Français

https://chinaradiosswl.blogspot.com/2024/11/concours-swl-2025-en-francais.html

No pirate radios or clandestine radio stations please. Only AM radios, no DRM, SSB, etc.

What is a clandestine radio station: https://www.dxing.com/clandest.htm

I receive this message on Facebook

"Make clear these points in your rules of the upcoming contest:- 1) Anybody can participate in only one category or two or three categories, if he/ she wishes.
My answer YES 2) A contestant will be allowed to use either normal radio receiver or SDR or both."
My answer YES

Its is not possible to use a real radio receiver and a Web or kiwi SDR


My answer is YES for 25

Another question from a listener
Entrer

"How about a station like WRMI on frequency 15770. It's obviously the same Okeechobee transmitter, but they relay other broadcasters. For example they broadcast RAE Argentina, and VOA, Radio Slovakia etc.? Can those be counted separately, or, because it's all WRMI it's ok" My answer YES its ok you for iRAE Argentina, and VOA, Radio Slovakia ovak

ia etc.? Alle ar O

Each station in the log is one point

Awards will be BRONZE one to forty-nine radios stations (1 to 49),

 SILVER fifty to ninety-nine radios stations (50 to 99),

GOLD one hundred to two hundred radios stations (100 to 200) 

and PLATINIUM more of two hundred radios station (200 and more)

DIAMOND for more or 250 radio stations

This SWL contest is open to beginners, just respect the rules please

It will be possible to listen with a real radio or with a WEB or KIWI SDR ( but not use also a real radio receiver )

If you listen with a Web or Kiwi SDR you can use only the same SDR during all the contest.

https://icomjapan.blogspot.com/2023/12/listen-world-for-free-on-your-computer.html

For the MW the place of the transmitter is not important

https://www.mwlist.org/mwlist_quick_and_easy.php?area=1&kHz=648&twente=1#kHz648

In fact i received a message because the rules were not clear for the medium wave.

"What I was wondering was, I hear tons of Medium Wave stations from Spain here in the evenings. Do I count every station that I am able to hear from there even though for example I can hear Radio Nacional on numerous different frequencies throughout the dial , just that they are broadcast from different transmitters. I guess what I mean to ask is do I count every station of Radio Nacional on each different frequency by different transmitters or do I only count say Radio Nacional or Onda Cero Radio from Spain one time or for that matter Spain itself only once. Thanks for any clarification regarding this. "

My answer:

So you can listen tons of MW radios stations

You can listen and log Radio Nacional on numerous different frequencies.

YES you can count every station of Radio Nacional on each different frequency by different transmitters. On Shortwave the rules are not the same.

Thank you.



Map of Short Wave transmiters in the world






For the shortwave SW the transmitter place is very important

It is not necessary to be registered to enter this contest 2025

The goal on SW it to listen maximum of SW transmitters in the world.

SW transmitter are sometimes used by different radios stations.

To identified the radio and SW transmitter you can use this free website

http://www.short-wave.info/



Broadcast database: 3,676 entries with the latest schedules of all clandestine, domestic and international broadcasting services on shortwave, compiled by top experts in this field.

A powerful concurrent full text word search is included as well. It runs under Windows .../XP/VISTA/7/8/10/11/... Whether you are an international radio listener, a businessman or a tourist travelling worldwide, a professional monitoring service, or a circumnavigator sailing around the globe: This is the way - just a few keystrokes and you have it all!

30 years after the spreading of PC technology all over the world, the publication of frequency lists by the medium of CD is considered to be a standard procedure among state-of-the-art companies in this field, and it is a must for leading publishers such as Klingenfuss Publications. We have been around for 57 years already. For decades, we have been the world leader in publications on digital data signals decoding on HF. The famous Guide to Utility Radio Stations is in its brandnew 33rd edition. We now offer more than 28,000 (twenty eight thousand!) digital data decoder screenshots on USB stick. Just for the record, other publishers have absolutely nothing to offer in this field, let alone something on USB stick.

Klingenfuss Publications:
the difference between jumping on the bandwagon - and driving it!

Says Frank Donovan W3LPL in ARRL's QST - October 2024:

most productive solar maximum for HF operators ..." And
Joe Lynch N6CL in The Spectrum Monitor - November 2024
under the title "Solar Cycle 25 Continues to Outperform its
Expectations": "The expected sunspot numbers, around 200
or more, and the solar flux index, between 220 and 240,
exceed previous predictions. These increased values will
influence the maximum usable frequency (MUF), making
high HF bands very active." By consequence, we'll enjoy
good to excellent shortwave long-distance propagation
conditions throughout 2025 and far beyond.
More than 800 (this Sunday morning: 857!) Kiwi-SDRs

are 260+ broadcast stations still active on shortwave ...

If a transmitter is used by different radio stations it is possible to list all the radio stations

Example if you listen RFI Radio France Int from transmitter in Issoudin France you can log only one time this radio station from this transmitter even you listen this station on different bands.

KBS World radio use also the transmitter of Issoudun so its valid to log KBS from this transmitter in France.

KBS World radio broadcast also from 3 other transmitters in the world so you can log this radio station on 4 different transmitters.

For China they are CRI, PBS and CNR. I wrote and article about these stations and transmitters

Language or band ( frequencie ) are not important
