The Lakihegy site just south of Budapest has a 314 metres tall Blaw-Knox
mast, built in 1933, used for a 540 kHz stand-by transmitter and a utility
transmitter on 135.6, the latter one being apparently new? 810 and 873
have their own, smaller masts.

ICELAND Iceland still on SW? Thanks to tips on dxld, hearing RUV Iceland
on 13865 kHz USB at the moment - strong signal (SIO 444) with Nordic,
world news reports in Icelandic. Weather reports at 1245 UT, 13 Jan.
The reports of their death (on 1st January) are greatly exaggerated!
