To the left one of the four 100 kW transmitters from the sixties (I
understand that two ones were removed to make way for the new Thomson
units, as seen in the background righthand), to the right the Continental
10 kW transmitter from Aldrans, kept in operational condition as kind of
last resort back-up.
One of the two S4005 transmitters, run at full 500 kW when operating on
the rotatable HR only, otherwise at 300 kW when being connected to one of
the HQ's or the HRS.
Zum Thema Aldrans siehe hier (unter "Austria", ist in Deutsch):
Reveals that 6000 kHz from Aldrans was in fact not meant to serve just
"remote valleys", as ORF pretended, but instead aimed at listeners in
Southern Tyrol [to serve 310.000 Austrian-Tyrolian nationals on northern
Italy, wb.]. To stop these relays was a condition of creating
Rundfunkanstalt Suedtirol which relays ORF programming on FM in Southern
Tyrol, thus 6000 had been switched to foreign service programming but
could not be kept because the more than 300 km of separate audio circuit
from Vienna to the Aldrans site were too expensive, thus the transmitter
had been closed down, dismantled and put up at Moosbrunn "where it's of
course good for nothing anymore".
Und mit einem Teil der Studiotechnik von ROI duerfte heute Radio Kabul
senden:
Some studio equipment from ROI went to Radio Kabul and is reportedly
indeed in use for everyday broadcasting there. The remainder of this text
deals with the studio equipment of GDR radio, lots of it went away on
dubious ways, not long ago some remains of the original console from
studio K6 (= former DT64 continuation studio) appeared on eBay, one of the
studio mics had been picked up at a junk shop for a small fraction of its
actual value, the guy who got it is too ashamed to even tell the little
amount of money he paid for this goody and sent it to the Gefell factory
to get it refurbished to perfect condition.
