The Aboriginal Resource and Development Services (ARDS), has reactived its
HF operation from its facility at Humpty Doo, near Darwin.
Upgraded transmission equipment is now in use, on 5050 kHz, running 24 hrs with test broadcasts.
Coverage is mainly for the Yolngu peoples of north-east Arnhem Land, ugmenting local coverage from Darwin on 1520 kHz, several VHF services in remote districts, and via Australia-wide free-to-air satellite.
Signal strength observed here in Melbourne is very good in the night-time period from around 0900 until 2200 UTC.
Regards from Melbourne!
