KROS Heard in Finland

Every year there are a number of Radio enthusiasts who travel above the Arctic Circle in Finland to listen to American Radio and see how many stations they can pick up in a hobby known as DXing. Our station was picked up recently by a gentleman who summited the following email.

“My name is Tuomo Vesala a carpenter 59 years old and I was happy and lucky to hear your AM Radio station here in Finland. As you may have now guessed, I am also AM radio hobbyist. I use good receivers and long beverage antennas so that I can hear stations from far away. Wave propagation has always fascinated me and it is amazing that I could pick up your station so far away across the Atlantic in the other side of the world.”

Below is the audio of what he heard. Although the signal is very staticky, it is from across the world!

I Wish you all the best and Merry Christmas time !

Yours,
Tuomo Vesala
