Danish Shortwave Club International, has recently released the 12th edition of Domestic Broadcast Survey. For the active and dedicated hobbyist it is a welcome annual publication from the excepts that monitor the bands from thirty-three countries.
The 12th edition, edited by DSWCI Chairman, Anker Petersen, is divided into four parts. Part 1 covers all active broadcasting stations on 2300-5700 kHz, including clandestine stations. Part 2 includes domestic stations on international shortwave bands above 5700 kHz broadcasting to a domestic audience. Deleted frequencies between 2 and 30 MHz which have not been reported during the past five years , but may appear, are listed in Part 3.
This edition is based upon official sources and radio hobby DX bulletins. When available prior to publication, A10 broadcast schedules are included. DXers across the globe actively monitor throughout May 2009 - March 2010, to comprise current broadcasting observations. Active stations are listed with an A (Regular), B (Irregular) or C (Sporadic) and D as Likely Inactive stations. All listings are in an easy to follow format, sorted by frequency, kW, country, station and operating schedules. Parallel frequencies and operating format.
To assist the radio listener, the right column list the Last Log, noting the last month and year the station was logged before the DBS publication deadline. To avoid inactive stations in the DBS, most frequencies that have not been heard during the past year, have been deleted or are listed in Part 3.
