What you will need
The experiment we would like your help with does not require specialist
radio equipment. All you need is the following:-
- A radio/cassette recorder capable of receiving Medium Wave (MW) radio
(about 500 to 1600 kHz). The experiment is easier if you have a
digital radio
- A cassette (or more, if possible) at least 90 minutes long.
- A mains timer switch.
The experiment requires you to make recordings of the radio at dawn and dusk.
Although a timer switch is not essential, without one of these you'll have to
get up far too early!
The ideal apparatus is a digital radio/cassette player with a built-in timer.
