If
you listen for radio stations in the the USA or
Canada then you will surely know that many of them
broadcast with directional antennas. This of
course can help or hinder your chance of reception
so you need to know what stations are doing. Many
years ago one could buy an excellent book that
showed all the radiation patterns but of course
nowadays computers can do this job more accurately
and be kept up to date with the most recent data
changes.
We are pleased to
launch a software tool by Bill Scott WE7W that
will map the radiation pattern of all MW
transmitters in North America. Radio Data
Medium Wave (RDMW) will do this for
daytime, nighttime and even critical hours. And
the radiation pattern is superimposed on Google
Maps so you can scroll around the globe and zoom
in to even see the transmitter masts!
Not only that but
RDMW will ray trace from the transmitter to your
receiver, calculating the exact path a signal will
take and its great circle distance. You can even
see how much signal is being radiated in your
direction and whether you are likely to hear a
particular station.
RDMW has been
adapted by the Circle into six regional editions,
based upon where you might be listening, but of
course you can set your receiver anywhere you wish
in the software. You can download RDMW for a small
admin charge from the Circle's website. Find out
more here:
We hope this will
serve as a useful DXing tool.
