Mystery Radio 21 letter 23 Jul 21

"Dear Edward,

thanks a lot for your nice reception report from UK this evening and from July 20th !


We are really surprised to learn how many people can listen to us all over Europe and from Siberia to the East Coast oft the United States. Inspite of the World Wide Web people still enjoy listening on shortwave, and like us they are fascinated by the myth of wave propagation. That explains the name of our station „Mystery21“.

We have been on air for many years, but we are newcomers on shortwave. We chose the 60m band because oft the variety of propagation conditions: short distance in Europe during the day and DX after sunset.

Our equipment is completely homemade and we are testing with 1,2 KW PEP from 8 relatively cheap mosfets and a simple inverted V dipole antenna installed at 25 meters above the soil.

We use sound processing with an optimod pc card and with stereo tool. Our bandwidth is a little bit higher than with most commercial stations.

We apologize for not having any printed QSL cards at the moment. Considering the high number of reception reports we are thinking about E-QSL.

You will find further information and pictures on our facebook site. There you will also find our webstream during the transmissions. If you like, you can join our facebook group.

Stay tuned and enjoy listening on shortwave, especially on the 60m band. (4870khz +/- QRM)

We are looking forward to hearing from you again. 73....


Thanks very much for listening.



Yours,  Mystery21 Team"
