This frequency mainly used for Tamil Service. This particular service started on 1925. At present the only MW Tamil service from SLBC is on 855 KHz for the Sri Lankan Tamil listeners. Few years back they stopped the evening service on 873 KHz. From January 2008 they reduced the morning service. According to the SLBC officials, they didn't get advertisement for that service. They spend three lahks Rupees per day for transmitt the programme to South India. Here in Tamil Nadu so many private FM?s acquired the SLBC clients for the advertisement. This is also the one of the reason to stopped the well known historical service. History of the Organization in Brief The history of the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation dates back to year 1925, when its first pre-cursor, ?Colombo Radio?, was launched on 16th December 1925 using a Medium Wave radio transmitter of one kilowatt of output power from Welikada, Colombo. Commenced just 03 years after the launch of BBC, Colombo radio was the first ever radio station in Asia. This new medium of mass communication not only became increasingly popular in the years that followed, but also quickly evolved into a medium of national character, which led to the ?Radio Service? being organized as a separate department of the government of Ceylon (as country was then called) by the ?call sign? ?Radio Ceylon? in 1949. Subsequently in 1967, the Department of Broadcasting was transformed into its present statutory form of a state corporation by the Ceylon broadcasting corporation Act. No 37 of 1966 of the parliament of Ceylon, thereby assuring increased autonomy and flexibility in the operations of the new organization. The organization acquired its present name, Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation, with the transition of the state into the status of ?Republic of Sri Lanka? on 22nd May 1972. SLBC has since continued in the same legal status as a state corporation, and is currently listed under the scope of the ministry of Information and Media of the Government of Sri Lanka. Transition of Domestic Broadcasting from Medium Wave to FM As was the case with many national radio stations with the same standing several decades ago, SLBC was relying on medium wave as the primary mode of domestic broadcasting until the dawn of ?90s. Some sporadic FM broadcasts had nevertheless been already introduced at several transmitting stations more as a means of ?relaying? the broadcasts to medium wave transmitting stations. However, by late ?80s SLBC was acting in recognition of the strategic importance of switching from MW to FM as the primary mode of domestic broadcasting. Accordingly, in 1993, ?the FM Stereo Broadcasting Facility at Colombo? was commissioned with the technical assistance of the government of Japan. This was followed by the ?Isla
