  • AFN, Europe History to 1999
    AFN History The American Forces Network Europe began broadcasting from London during World War II, using equipment and studio facilities borrowed from the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC Our first transmission to U.S. troops began at 5:45 p.m. on July 4, 1943 and included less than five hours of recorded shows, a BBC news and sports broadcast. Our signal was sent from London via telephone lines to five regional transmitters to reach US troops in the United Kingdom. Nazi bombing raids over England kept knocking the station off the air. In May 1944, AFN London moved from its original BBC studios at 11 Carlos Place to 80 Portland Place. As D-day approached, the network joined with the BBC and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to develop programs especially for the Allied Expeditionary Forces. When the actual invasion began, AFN programs were beamed to the war fronts via long-wave transmitters from the BBC and re-transmitted by AFRS (Armed Forces Radio Service) mobile vans that were attached to the various U.S. Army units attacking the European mainland. Mobile stations, complete with personnel, broadcasting equipment, and a record library were deployed to broadcast music and news to troops in the field. The mobile stations reported on front line activities and fed the news reports back to studio locations in London. Although the network's administrative headquarters remained in London, its operational headquarters soon moved to AFN Paris. In November 1944, AFN Paris was located in the Herald Tribune building on the Rue de Berri broadcasting on a 15kw transmitter given to the U.S.

    domestic broadcasting survey 7th Edition, April 2005 ISSN 1399-8218 Edited by Anker Petersen Saotomean radiolisteners in a cocoa plantation. (Photo taken by the Editor) Domestic Broadcasting Survey April 2005 Seventh Edition (including Tropical Bands Survey 33rd Edition). An exclusive publication from the worldwide Danish ShortWave Club International DENMARK www.dswci.org Compiled by Anker Petersen, April 20, 2005. DSWCI Copyright. Once again the now 48 years old DSWCI is publishing its annual, completely updated Domestic Broadcasting Survey (DBS) covering the whole shortwave spectrum, including the tropical bands. Part 1 (page 4) is also the 33rd edition of the Tropical Bands Survey covering all active broadcasting stations in the range 2300-5700 kHz. Part 2 (page 14) covers the Domestic stations on international bands above 5700 kHz broadcasting to a domestic audience or relaying such broadcasts to compatriots abroad. In Part 3 (page37) the active Clandestine stations are listed in a new lay out. This survey is based upon many official sources and DX-bulletins. In order to make the DBS reliable, each station frequency has been confirmed on the air by our own monitors around the world. Depending on this worldwide monitoring effort throughout the period May 2004 – April 2005, each entry is classified in the left column using the following codes for their appearance on the particular frequencies: A: Regular. B: Irregular. C: Sporadic. D: Likely inactive. To make this DBS up-to-date and user-friendly, frequencies which have not been reported heard during the past year are deleted and moved to Part 4 (page 42). Another useful feature is the column called ”Last log” which shows the last month and year before the DBS deadline when the particular station was reported logged by a DX-er somewhere in the world.This is another way of indicating the audibility of the station.
