About Europasender Waldheim
Europasender Waldheim (ESW) is a not-for-profit minded Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) broadcast station based in Waldheim, Germany – from Germany, for Europe, across Europe.
The station broadcasts relayed programming via DRM on shortwave and provides space for diverse programmes, relays and innovative content formats that highlight the rich DRM feature set. ESW operates on 6195 kHz with a transmission power of approximately 200 W ERP.
ESW uses a halfwave angled dipole antenna in inverted vee configuration, built by SAT-Service Schneider, with final feed and current node at the tower top. The antenna is tuned using an L-section in high-pass configuration, achieving antenna impedance matching with reflection better than -25dB under all weather conditions.
Broadcasts use DRM with xHE-AAC audio, Journaline and Fraunhofer DRM ContentServer technology to deliver best possible quality, resilient services and further features over long distances.
The station is supported by SAT-Service Schneider, the DRM Consortium and Fraunhofer IIS.
