About Mediumwave Listening

Mediumwave broadcast stations (aka “AM Radio” in many parts of the world) have a special spot in my heart, because they were my first introduction to the world of DX radio, listening late at night as a child to clear channel stations in far-off locales like Chicago and New Orleans. Station spacing is at 10 khz in the Americas but at 9 khz in the rest of the world. MW transmissions travel much farther at night; consequently medium wave stations in North America are given licenses with different privileges, including lower power day-time only stations, higher power regional stations, and maximum power clear channel stations which can be heard for hundreds of miles.—Mediumwave broadcasting is declining in many parts of the world, however it still serves as the most economical form of long-distance radio broadcasting in many parts of the world. Many medium wave enthusiasts in North America attempt to log a station from each US state and Canadian province. A good way to start is to try to snag the powerful clear channel AM stations at night.

Mediumwave DX Radio Tools by KG5JST is a mobile website and app for use by Mediumwave DX'ers. It is a creation of James M. Branum, KG5JST.

This app can be accessed via any mobile device at App.JMB.mx/mwrt or can be downloaded as an android app from the Google Play store. This is a work in progress so check back often for updates.

Your comments are welcome. Please send them to me at kg5jst (at) gmail (dot) com.

Also, FYI, the free version of the app will have some small and hopefully inobtrusive ads, to help raise funds to pay for airtime for Broad Spectrum Radio. But if you don't like ads and/or want to show us some love, please consider buying the paid version of this app.
