They say #AMradio in soooo inefficient & unfriendly to environment... so they destroyed a lot of greenery just to destroy some AM towers 🤡 www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJtG... #mediumwave #DeathOfAMRadio

This AM Radio Station Was Torn...

1017 kHz: Amica Radio Veneta 🇮🇹 doing well this morning 🙂 Saw them active well into the evening as well - which rarely happens. More of a hobby station; expect such operations to really be the only thing keeping #mediumwave alive in Europe soon if not now. #DeathOfAMRadio

Three US AM stations have shut down this New Year's Eve only, bringing the 2025 total to some 50 (that is really give or take, but it was a lot). 1280 WNAM Neenah-Menasha, WI 1280 WGBF Evansville, IN 1510 KTTT Columbus, NE At least Cesky Impuls haven't gone dark on 981 -- yet. #DeathOfAMRadio

With #NewYear2026 approaching to Spain, I think it's time to recheck the last RNE frequencies still active this morning, via Castlebar Co Mayo #KiwiSDR 558 Punjab Radio and prob. IRIB R.Iran 612 crackling noise😮 774 dead air 1125 dear air here & 1124.95 Seems this is it #mediumwave #DeathOfAMRadio

Welp, Moldova is off on 873 & 1494 too 😱 They used to have extended broadcasts on New Year's Eve. Not this year. So with Romania off too, this leaves us with 576 Bulgaria, 729 Greece, and 1278 Ukraine in the UTC+2 timezone 😕 #mediumwave #NewYear2026 #DeathOfAMRadio

AND it appears I just missed the last broadcast of Deutsche Welle... 😢 #shortwave #DeathOfAMRadio #DeathOfShortwaveRadio

558 kHz: RNE Radio 5 Euskadi still active, 50kW from San Sebastián/Biribilondo-Zubieta, and somewhat audible in daytime in Castlebar🇮🇪. Matching RNE R.Nacional service on 774 must be what we've been strongly hearing in the morning, just a weak carrier now in UK & Ireland #mediumwave #DeathOfAMRadio

I'm afraid I don't have a good recording of Madrid 585 kHz shutting down due to too much Iran, but I do for 657 kHz, which did go off @ 0200:24***z And I can say (audio) cut-off timings varied greatly between transmitters. @[email protected] @[email protected] #mediumwave #DeathOfAMRadio

Looking quickly through the other frequencies that still had RNE audio: 801 is in dead air now 612 mix of 2 weak audios, one Spanish, one presumed Moroccan 558 774 972 & 1125 still on #mediumwave #DeathOfAMRadio
