- NEW INFO. As of 31/01/17 the Short Wave transmissions have been closed down, see final Radio Australia short wave broadcast video on this channel. • Shutdown Of Last Short...
Antenna and transmitter maintenance and operation at an
international broadcasting site, includes a visit to the "valve"
room.
It makes me really sad seeing all these shortwave stations disappearing.
Radio Canada International & Radio Australia were among the very best with incredible professionalism and credibility. It's a shame that federal governments/cabinets in Canada & Australia were filled with ignorant people who did not understand the strategic value of using the ionosphere as a natural and durable satellite. It's sad when ignorance and down right stupidity win out.
I wish I could see this video while I was listening to Radio Australia back in 1970's. How I would appreciate the technicians to make the broadcast to be heard by thousands, even millions of Short Wave listeners.
Very nice and informative
Es realmente una lastima que desaparezcan estas emisoras! la onda corta es alucinante!
Really interesting video, real 'behind the scenes' stuff!!
This video was made in 2010.
You can see it from transmitter daily log at this video in time point 5:30.

Great video once again Dave - I imagine those TX valves don't come cheap.. What year was this video made?
i liked the video,thanks, shortwave alive!
looks good!!!
Awesome stuff!, wonder what's going to happen with all the remaining Analog TV transmitters now they've nearly all been turned off!
Very cool! Not sure why they tried to decode drm from an am signal ;)
@Catswhiskerdetector - have another look at the monitor receiver. Multimode box with AM mode engaged
whats happened to all the stuff down that way . please dont tell me its all been pulled down and torn apart.
All still in place. Carefully mothballed.
Would expect so! They have to find money from somewhere to pay the overpaid CEO Chairman etc!!

four Harris SW100A and three Continentals: 418E, 418F & the new one 418G (with DRM server!)
This can't be healthy working in so much RF radiation...
HF broadcast stations are pretty benign. Doesn't get absorbed in the eyes or body like microwaves and the signals are are beamed up at elevation angles 10°-90° so they clear the site quickly, unlike FM/TV transmissions beamed downwards.
