Hi Mick I have just phoned RNZI and the person who answered advised me that it is for the regular monthly maintenance. Apparently they normal go off air for approx 4-5 hours once a month, usually on a Thursday (NZ time) . But for reasons he is unaware of they have taken the transmitter off air today Friday (NZ time). The person also advised that the maintenance was usually during the Wayne Mowat show.
Hope that helps Regards Mark Nicholls Wellington.
