Greenland (Kalaalit Nunaata Radioa) now on 3815kHz USB. Coming in weak,
noisy, but recognisable here tonight in Scotland. 200 watts scheduled
2100-2215z according to WRTH, but not listed in Passport.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned by someone else on r.r.s.

Kind regards and good DX.

Have heard that they are operating on that freq., and that is good.

Unheard here though, and not heard since they operated on 3999 many years ago
and were on in our early mornings here.

QSL'd (veried, for those in Glendale) back in 1984.

The QSL (verie, for those in Glendale) looked like this, back in the day:

Interesting stuff; Greenland is a fascinating place, maybe because of its
remoteness or extreme climate. The only other Greenland frequency
received here was on AM 650kHz many moons ago. I haven't QSL'd or even
DX'd much in years. Made a tunable HF loop from a piece of stiff coax
just there in January, and have rekindled the interest with a few
catches. No room for a longwire at this apartment, but surprising
performance from the loop. I plan on making a more sturdy version from
copper pipe soon.

Have also been enjoying a few South Americans on 60 metres late at night
here, some with low power. China comes through quite well, including
Tibet, but still trying to catch those Australian domestics; they are as
elusive as ever for me.

You can have all the Australian domestic MW stations I can listen to.
The fact that there is a station on just about 9Khz medium wave
frequency makes it virtually impossible to pick up any overseas
stations.

I considered attaching a long wave antenna to my receiver but that
would only make the domestic stations louder.

If only I could live in your part of the world. :-)

I have had the same problem on MW when trying to catch the North American
AM stations. Perhaps you need some kind of LW or MW loop antenna. They
are ideal for pre-selecting the wanted frequency and directional nulling
of the one you don't want.
