SW 11950kHz is my second shortwave frequency of Radio Romania Actualitati received in Malaysia after SW 15340kHz.

 

From 1300 hours to 1500 hours (UTC) daily, Radio Romania Actualitati broadcasts on SW 15340kHz and 11950kHz through Radio Romania International. 

 

In recent weeks, I successfully received Radio Romania Actualitati SW 15340kHz in Malaysia, meanwhile 11950kHz is always unsuccessful one because of China Radio International Malay and Indonesian broadcast services.

China Radio International operates on SW 11955kHz in Malay and Indonesian languages from 1230 hours to 1430 hours daily (UTC), this causes me unable to receive Radio Romania Actualitati SW 11950kHz from 1300 hours to 1430 hours (UTC). Hence, I have to wait until 1430 hours to receive Radio Romania Actualitati SW 11950kHz in Malaysia after China Radio International signed off.

 

After 1430 hours (UTC) or 2230 hours (UTC+8 Malaysia time), finally I can receive Radio Romania Actualitati SW 11950kHz successfully.

 

In fact, SW 11950kHz is my second shortwave frequency of Radio Romania Actualitati received in Malaysia after 15340kHz. Here is the footage:

 

In terms of receiving signal quality, 11950kHz is clearer than 15340kHz, despite both are beaming same direction to Europe at 285 DEG angle, and transmitted from Galbeni-Bacau, Romania at 300kW transmitter output power. Unfortunately, I could only listen to Radio Romania Actualitati on 11950kHz after 1430 hours (UTC) because of China Radio International SW 11955kHz. 

 

* Frequency: SW 11950kHz

* Power: 300kW

* Transmission site: Galbeni-Bacau, Romania

* Receiving site: Balakong, Selangor, Malaysia (20km from Kuala Lumpur)

* Distance: 8617km

* Receiving date/time: 25.09.2021 2238H (UTC+8)/1438H (UTC)

* SINPO: 45444 

 

By combining my videos of receiving Radio Romania International and Actualitati shortwave videos, majority are transmitted from Galbeni-Bacau, Romania, meanwhile there is only 1 frequency transmitted from Tiganesti, namely Radio Romania International SW 21550kHz.
