Transmitter

The transmitter that the radio station used was a Pascal FM 50 on FM frequency 105.6 MHz.

On the Internet I found some pictures of a similar Pascal device (these pictures are thus not of Veronica Anders).

Pictures taken from Kapaza where an inventory buyer offers a second-hand such transmitter.

The below document describes the coverage area of the station (from an information package for advertising sales). These numbers now look a little highish:

  • 90 000 listeners per day in Belgium: Maaseik, Neeroeteren, Opoeteren, Dorne, Elen, Rotem, Dilsen, Lanklaar, Stokkem, As, Leut, Maasmechelen, Vucht, Eisden, Boorsem, Ophoven, Geistingen, Kessenich, Kinrooi, Molenbeersel, Bree, Opitter, Tongerlo, Meeuwen, Gruitrode, Bocholt

Later a transmission limiter was chained in front of the transmitter with the purpose of using the available bandwidth as optimal and loudly as possible.
