 transmitter, radio station
The Transmitter Solt is a radio transmission facility for 540 kHz MW serving as the primary transmitter site for Kossuth Rádió. With an output power of 2 MW, it is the most powerful radio transmitter in Europe and is among the most powerful radio transmitters in the world.
The original 1977 transmitter was made of two identical, Soviet-made vacuum tube based 1000 kW units, combined for the required 2000 kW output power. It was replaced in 2017 by a solid state Nautel NX2000 consisting of five DRM-enabled NX400 units combined for 2000 kW output. The original vacuum tube transmitter remains on site as a functional backup unit.
