More live

Taiwan, 6085, Radio Taiwan International, 1030-1040 With Chinese music as
back-
ground, noted persons in Mandarin language comments. Family Radio is on the
freq
too in Spanish, so got a mixing of both stations here. Taiwan is bouncing
against itself
with "great circle" fading. Overall Taiwan was fair. (Chuck Bolland,
February 26, 2008)
Bolivia, 5996.30, Radio Loyola, 1037-1045, With a very weak signal, noted a
male in
Spanish language comments. Periodically splatter bleeds in make copy
difficult. (Chuck

Peru, 5039.23, Radio Libertad, 1043-1055, Signal was very tenuous by fading
in and out.
But details consisted of a male in Spanish language comments, supplemented
with music.
(Chuck Bolland, February 26, 2008)
Indonesia, 4750, RRI Makassar, 1100-1110 Noted a female presenting news in

Great. Thanks. I've saved HCDX digests for years for the reference value.
Fwiw...the link does indeed show the "digests". First listserver I've

Indian Government to Strengthen Radio-TV Network
16:4 IST
Lok Sabha
The Government has proposed to set up 93 AIR transmitters and 41 Doordarshan
transmitters in the country during 2007-2008 and 2008-2009. in addition, 100
Low Power Transmitters (LPTs) will also be set up in the North Eastern
States.
The total estimated cost in respect of All India Radio is Rupees 182 crores.
The same in respect of Doordarshan is Rupees 198.37 crores.
The criteria followed by the Government for establishment of Radio and TV
transmitters include factors such as extent of resultant coverage to urban
and rural population; provision of coverage to tribal, hilly, remote and
border areas; terrain conditions etc., and it has no linkage to the number
of cities.
This information was given by Minister of Information & Broadcasting and
Parliamentary Affairs, Shri P. R. Dasmunsi in written reply to a question in
parliament today.

TRT-Turkey to launch Kurdish broadcasts
TRT-Turkey is planning to set aside one of its five channels for broadcasts in
non-Turkish languages used by Turkish citizens, most notably Kurdish, reports
Today's Zaman.
The ruling Justice and Development Party (AK Party) has decided to go forward
with new efforts to expand broadcasts in Kurdish amid criticism that the
government's reform process has encountered a serious slowdown.
TRT General Manager Ibrahim Sahin said it had not yet been decided exactly
how the foreign language broadcasts would be carried out but that most likely
an entire channel would be devoted to Kurdish broadcasts.
Mr Sahin said: "This channel will start broadcasting as soon as possible. We
don't have an exact date yet, though."
He added that the TRT board was already at work on coming up with the content
of the Kurdish programming.
TRT, the national public broadcaster, is currently planning to either
dedicate one of its current channels to full day Kurdish language broadcasts,
or to have these broadcasts aired on a new TRT channel.

BBC ends shortwave service in Europe
BBC World Service shut down its remaining shortwave transmissions to Europe
today. The current closures affect the remaining transmissions heard in
southern Europe.
The broadcaster, on its website, said the change was made in line with
listener trends in radio.
Increasing numbers of people around the world are choosing to listen to radio
on a range of other platforms including FM, satellite and online, with fewer
listening on shortwave.
This is particularly the case in Europe, where the majority of shortwave
transmissions ceased in March 2007.
The BBC admitted that this was a loss to some listeners, but said there were
alternative ways of hearing its programmes.
