6190 is the BBC but in a
language that is German or Germanic, such as Dutch or a Scandinavian
tongue.


The BBC closed its german service 1999.

On 6190 kHz is 24 hours the german "Deutschlandfunk" It is a domestic program
with more information than music,

If you want to see all shortwave frequencies of the BBC, you can use the web
site of the german radio club ADDX onwww.addx.de.

On http://www.addx.de/cgi-bin/hfp.cgi?language=Eis the english listening
guide.

With greetings from Germany

Oh. It's so strong here in the Western US that I thought for a second
it was Deutsche Welle's pointless 24hr all German service to North
America, back from the dead. Then I thought it was the BBC, since
they're on then, but apparently these Germans are wiping out
everything on that freq. I would guess that "Deutschlandfunk" would be
a private station not connected to DW or the German government?
