Hi Ian

 

I can send this information to you with the decimal lat/long figures.  Send me an email to my work address (andrew.dyke@...) with your email address and some details about the details you would like and the format you would like it in (Excel spreadsheet would be my suggestion).

 

Cheers

Andrew

Subject: [LPFM] FM Transmision site data

Hi folks,

 

There's lot's of knowledgeable & helpful folks in this group so I'll see how I go with this question.

 

I put together a FM station database of Aust & NZ stations (except the NZ micros, Graham Barclay does a far better job on this than I could ever acheive here).

 

Anyway I was wondering if any of you folk have knowledge of the latutude/longitude co-ordinates in degrees, minutes & seconds of "ANY" NZ FM (88-108MHz) txer sites (excluding the micro-broadcasters). This information is used in a program to calculate azimuth & distance data from a known location to any FM TXer site. It's used by FM DXers in our two countries.

 

Sure the Ministry of Communications website has those map reference numbers & supposedly accurate gride/numbers but the conversion to DMS doesn't add up (old maps by the Reg of radio freqs). So I'd be appreciative of any help.

 

Also any accurate (known or obversed data) for FM txion sites/stations per frequency & per transmitter site such as:

 

1. Antenna polarisation

2. Actaul erp of FM station.

3. Descriptive location of FM tx sites in townships or near townships (eg crn main & High st, Wanaka or hill name or eg Water Tower, Greymouth)

4. Lat/longitude in DMS

 

..would all be gratefully appreciated.

 

Good broadcasting to you all & thanks in advance for your time & assistance.

Didn't the previou regs (or 2 ago ) say "frequency range - 88.0 to 88.5" Meaning between...

 

If the new one doesn't specify range, then the obvious assumption would be they have specified usable freqs....

 

Confusion reigns at RFS?

I think you'll find the tawa station is on 88.4 now. sorry, I can't confirm that though.

 

Like I said before though, to remain consistent, if they say we can use between (but not including) 88.0 88.5, then surely the same will apply at the upper end, too? IE: use of only 106.8, 106.9, 107.0, 107.1, 107.2, 107.3. Will we now loose 106.7 too?

 

Cheers,

Bryan.

Yes I agree

 

Don't The Generator operate on 88.50 from the Radio Training School, as well as Radio Lakeland

in Tokaroa, also why are there still a lot of Tourist Info stations still on the 100 - 101 Mhz Band ?

 

Carefull answers would be appreciatted.

This is really quite interesting...

 

So, it could either mean the 88.0 + 88.5FM frequencies are now included, or (if I'm reading it right) that if the 88.0 + 88.5FM frequencies are excluded (as is currently the case, and was apparently always the case here in Wellington), to remain consistent that 106.7 is no longer available, but 107.4 is?

 

It seems as if 107.4 could either be used by a 300mW (LPFM), or 25mW(Real estate) device just by looking at the regs below... None of this seems to clear. It seems to be channel specific with 106.63, but all the other frequencies are rounded. So, maybe 106.7 isn't acceptable, but 106.75 might be (given the bandwidth, and channel spacings)? It's all a bit odd, really....

 

Maybe Andrew, our friend at RSM can help cast some light on this, if he's available to?

 

Cheers,

Bryan.

Try again..

 

Hi to you All

 

I noticed in the New Regs current till June 30th, 2003

 

that:

 

I note a couple of differences in the old freq Range for the Document issued May 2002

which says that the freq range shall be: 88.10 - 88.40

yet the new Doc issued Dec 2002 indicates 88.00 - 88.50

 

Is this correct ?
