Re: SOUTH AFRICA: Frequency change of IRIN Radio in Somali via VT
Communications:
1730-1745 NF9735 MEY 100 kW 020 deg, x9665 to avoid REE in Spanish
(R BULGARIA DX MIX News, Ivo Ivanov, via wwdxc BC-DX Apr 30)

The change to the 41 meter band should help their interference issues. I
guess we'll have to monitor this closely until they choose a final frequency

Subject: IRIN radio Somalia feedback

Dear Dan Henderson, Thank you for your feedback on our short wave service
for Somalia. Your report does appear to match what we broadcast that day!

> > From Monday 5 May 2008, we switched frequency to 7290 kHz on the 41m
band - as we have had zero feedback from Somali listeners (our target
audience) on the previous frequency. We will test for a further three
days and hope this one gets us where we want to be.

The service aims to provide humanitarian information and news to
Somalis, and to get more of their voices and views on air and into
circulation. Thanks and best wishes, Louise Tunbridge, IRIN Radio
Coordinator, Nairobi, Kenya (all via Büschel, DXLD)
