Mediumwave transmitting Station ZADAR, Croatia [1134 kHz/600 kW]
Dear DXers,
Finally we have a chance to look at a photo with antenna towers of Zadar
MW station, which is relaying GLAS HRVATSKE (Voice of Croatia) to Europe
at 1300-0530. The high quality picture is at:
Also, during my websurfing, I found some interesting news about Zadar MW
station. You can find the story on:
but, unfortunately only in Croatian language.
And, of course I've just translated the most interesting parts of the
text:
"Srednjevalni odasiljač ZADAR SV lociran je u predjelu Rasinovac,
pored grada Nina, na udaljenosti od oko 20 kilometara od Zadra.
MW TRANSMITTER ZADAR IS LOCATED AT RASINOVAC (read Rashinovats) BY THE
CITY OF NIN, ABOUT 20 KILOMETERS FROM ZADAR.
Tijekom agresije na Republiku Hrvatsku, dana 16.09.1991., JNA je borbenim
zrakoplovima raketirala objekt, te time unistila antenski sustav. Raketama
su srusena dva antenska stupa, dok su druga dva antenska stupa i antenski
vod onesposobljeni za rad.
.... IN 1991 DURING A BOMBING, ROCKETS DESTROYED THE ANTENNA SYSTEM. THE
ROCKETS OVERTURNED (destroyed) TWO ANTENNA TOWERS, WHILE THE OTHER TWO
TOWERS AND A ANTENNA FEED LINE WERE DISABLED ...
Od rujna 2003. u suradnji s tvrkom RIZ-Odasiljači započeta je
rekonstrukcija antenskog sustava, koja je obuhvaćala podizanje dva
nova 132-metarska stupa, sanaciju antenskog voda i antenskih kućica.
Od 30.04.2004. u rad je pusten rekonstruirani antenski sustav, koji
osigurava dobru čujnost programa Glasa Hrvatske u većem dijelu
Europe i Bliskog Istoka.
FROM SEPTEMBER 2003 WITH A COMPANY "RIZ-TRANSMITTERS" BEGUN A
RECONSTRUCTION OF ANTENNA SYSTEM, WITH INSTALLING TWO NEW 132 METER
TOWERS, AND THE REPAIRS OF ANTENNA FEED LINE AND ANTENNA HOUSES. FROM
APRIL 30, 2004 THE NEW ANTENNA SYSTEM STARTED OPERATING, WHICH INSURES A
GOOD RECEPTION OF THE VOICE OF CROATIA (Glas Hrvatske) IN MOST PARTS OF
EUROPE AND THE NEAR EAST."
