Jil FM Yet another interesting radio station but in this case is in medium waves . This station has some special music characteristics that make them not only interesting but also special . As it is located in Algeria, aimed at younger people , it mixes several distinctive music styles (as of start of 13 though I think the continue to use the same scheme now ) - the local Berber music . of the local tribe . this music highly reminds me the music from Horn of Africa ! - Arabic ,mostly pop . possibly the national music - French , as they are under French influence - Western , as with most stations do for international music So this makes them with a rather complex music style The station transmits on the frequency of 531 kHz East beam and 548 west beam and is part of the national radio network of Algeria . In Thessaloniki it can be heard from on late local night times ( ie 9 pm ) to ca 6 am in the morning local times (-3 for UTC )provided propagation conditions are good . With the help of external antenna or Am loops this can be extended to about 1 hour ,. Main signal levels are S9 to S9+20 making one of the strongest stations in the lower MW band 548kHz can be heard in the clear on local mornings (03 UTC )with nearly same signal as 531 kHZ ( abt S7 as for 3/9/13) Little internet research yielded the news that this station uses the program Radio-Assist from NETIA (a Globecast company ) for automated music scheduling (news on May 13 for the program upgrade ) Here is a link for listening Jil Fm via Facebook https://www.facebook.com/jilfm/app_190322544333196 and http://www.radioalgerie.dz/live/tab-chJil.html http://delicious.com/gr_greek1/zak (all my pages ) _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ _______________________________________________ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
