[HCDX] Switzerland - Special Event Station

["Mike Terry" <miketerry73@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Swiss Radio International broadcast station has stopped using short
waves and its transmitters and antennas are being decommissioned. Members of
the HB9MM  http://www.hb9mm.com/Index_e.htmclub  station in Lausanne have
been given permission to use the former broadcast station facilities and
antennas, including a 62-metre high curtain array weighing 135 tonnes. The
special callsign HE3RSI is on the air now until 3 December on bands from 40
to 10 metres. This is the first time the HE3 prefix has been used.
