Ein Stück Lebensgefühl weniger,in einer Zeit,wo das Leben einfacher als Heute.Ich vermisse den RTL Radiosender Marnach,hier bis Anfang der 90er Radio Luxemburg und bis 2015 RTL Radio.
The set up was three omnidirectional antennas linked to a passive reflector each - on the northern side, a single omnidirectional antenna was linked to a single triangular passive reflector mast which was slightly directional 324 degrees towards the UK but would get out to other parts of Europe as well via a reflected skywave signal at 1200 kW erp, and on the southern side, two omnidirectional antennas were linked to a single triangular passive reflector mast which was also slightly directional 45 degrees towards Germany usually at 600 kW. The reflectors could be turned off, as they were on the day aerial for the repeat broadcast of the final English Language transmission 30th December 2015, but most of the the time, they never were. If the reflectors were switched out, the transmissions would be 360 degrees omnidirectional zapping in all directions across the whole of Europe, the UK and way beyond that..........with equal levels of signal strength no matter where you listened.
Wie wahr. Aber wenigstens finanziert sich RTL selber und nicht aus zwangsweise auch von Nichtnutzern abgepressten Gebühren. Das Beste, was je aus den ÖR hervorgegangen ist, dürften ihre Masten sein...
Jeno Märchenwald ja das war das einzige"gute" an RTL aber trotzdem ist es der bekloppteste Sender,in den 90 er ging es ja noch weil da einige gute Kinderserien aber auch manchmal interessante Reportagen liefen oder auch Serien wie "Ripleys unglaubliche Welt" da ging es auch Mal um den Kletterer Alain Robert.
RTL Fernsehen hatte mit dieser in dem Video beschriebener Anlage überhaupt nichts zu tun - das sind zwei verschiedene paar Stiefel. Es geht um die Aussendungen auf Kurzwelle 1440 kHz.......Radio Luxemburg.
I feel sad this legendary wavelength has gone but it caused concerns for local residents, and possibly their health, nearby due to high powered emissions from the masts at 600 kW and formerly 1200 kW . It got reduced to 300 kW on the day aerial and would operate between 150 and 300 kW dependent on broadcast targeting. In the mornings it would start up 03.50 UK / 04.50 CET at 150 kW for RTL Radio, go up to 300 kW for MS Heukelbach around 04.15 UK / 05.15 CET and drop to 150 kW towards the end of the religeous programme just before 04.45 UK / 05.45 CET (it would be noticeable on the outro music as a drop in power), and CRI German would use the full 300 kW power for it's transmissions. I noticed on the 30th December 2015 at midnight UK / 1am CET, that the passive reflector on the German day aerial were turned off at 300 kW for the edited repeat broadcast of the final English broadcast that Mike Knight had forwarded to RTL, it was a nice tribute to the legendary mighty 1440 kHz but the reception wasn't perfect in some corners of the UK due to the transmitted 300 kW power, it faded out badly in Lancashire England because I listened to it as I recorded this in 2 x Maxell UR90 cassettes on a Sony CD Radio Cassette recorder), and towards the end of Marian Montgomery's Maybe The Morning, the passive reflectors kicked back in with a click on 1440 kHz, and the Luxembourg National Anthem and cheeky burst of RTL Radio at the end of it closed the transmission.
There were concerns about the effect of the high power radiation of the transmitter on nearby houses, that is why the transmitter power of 1440 kHz / 208 metres was reduced to 300 kW.
I would have done an experiment with 1440 kHz MW. I would have turned off the three directional reflectors and transmitted in DRM mode via the UK omnidirectional antenna mast at 120 kW overnight and during the day on the Germany omnidirectional antenna mast at 240 kW during the day to test the effectiveness of a Pan European DRM transmission day and night.
