In 89.7 MHz looking for a patience, or Malta


One of the listening goals this year was to catch Malta, 3000km, with FM. Almost all the summer there was radio monitoring what's going on 89.7 MHz.
89.7 has one Maltese station and it's almost clear here from domestic or abroad usage. 3000km range seems to be quite optimal for double hops, I've got few in previous summers; Barcelona, Annaba, Tripoli. So that part is within the limits.

In finnish language Malta could be translated as patience. Patience would be needed as 89.7 might not be the right candidate for this task. There are slight finnish interference if inland tropo is enhanced. But the double hop place lies within Italy, which brings aloud stations of that region. Patience was not rewarded this season, but maybe in the next?
