In a reply from Ian Tinney of ABC Brisbane, Australia, Ian comments:
You might be interested to know that the two transmitters on
855 kHz (4QB and 4QO) operate in synchronous mode. Obviously
the program is identical, and the carriers are phase locked,
well ? most of the time anyway! This is not really a
satisfactory system from our point of view as there is a lot
of fading problems in the 'middle ground' between the two
transmitters. This may also explain some of the phasing
problems at your end. Actually, 4QB (Pialba) will be closed
at some time in the not too distant future, leaving the
frequency clear for 4QO (Eidsvold). The 4QB area is now
served by FM, and the AM transmitter sits on a few million
dollars worth of beach-front real estate.
