SLBC Stopped the MW Tx 

>From 01-06-2008, Sri Lankan Broadcasting Corporation
(SLBC) stopped the MW Service on 873 KHz to Indian
Listeners. 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

In the log of R. Victoria, below at the note, i wrote wrongly "5 minutes", 
right is "5 seconds" as follows:

6020, Peru, R Victoria,Lima; June-01 SS  religious talks, 2227 instr. 
music, 2232 outside talks “...grupos del evangelización...”(*), 2236-2239 
return of religious studio talks, mentioned “Lima” and “Peru”. >From 2236, 
significant signal enhancement 22322 (LOB-B).

(*) In this outside presumed reportage, could be heard two male voices talking 
when sudenlly started, wich sounded like many hard coughs presumed from the two 
males maybe more there, by some 5 seconds. Then the announcer in the studio 
said something like “interrompemos la reportage por problemas tecnicos...”.
