Re Patrick Martin's unid French on 729... I contacted Vanuatu Island Media if this could be R Vanuatu and here's their reply:
---quote--- Hello Jari At the moment, Radio Vanuatu (Vanuatu Broadcasting & Television Corporation or VBTC for short) uses only one MW frequency, that is 1125 KHz, broadcasting with less than 1KW from Port Vila. Radio Vanuatu's second MW transmitter is out of order since a couple of years. It used to broadcast from Luganville, Santo Island on 1179 KHz. Both transmitters will be replaced within the next few months, broadcasting on the above mentioned frequencies. I am not sure who broadcasts on 729 KHz. Likely to be French Polynesia or New Caledonia, but there are also some stations in Australia and (I think) even Fiji broadcasting French programmes at times. Kind regards from Vanuatu Hendrik Kettner Island Media Ltd ...unquote--- Jari Savolainen Kuusankoski Finland ___________________________________________________________________________________ Tsekkaa HCDX:n uusi www sivu: http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------- DX mailing list [email protected] http://dallas.hard-core-dx.com/mailman/listinfo/dx _______________________________________________ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
