NEW ZEALAND Hi Glenn, Yes I am aware of co-channel on 13840. I have been
in the Cook Islands this past week and heard it for myself.

RNZI still on 13840 AM, May 21 at 0019 with news reports, no QRM audible,
tho the quake jarred China into occupying this frequency where it causes
QRM in the Pacific and surely Asia. We have been wondering if RNZI would
move as a result. 15715-15720-15725 DRM also in with strong buzz.

NIGERIA Developments at Nigeria's premier radio corporation, Federal
Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN), are fast transforming the staid image
of Africa's largest radio network. In the past one year, Radio Nigeria has
been quietly transforming itself with improved signals, captivating
programming, web audio streaming, and, the latest, brand new transmitters
at Kaduna and Enugu to be dedicated to the Educational Service.
When completely installed in December 2008, the 200 kW mediumwave
transmitter in Jaji, Kaduna, will be one of the most powerful radio
transmitters in Africa, and, in combination with the 100 kW transmitter
planned for Enugu in 2009, the whole country and much of Africa will
receive the signals. The transmitters, a grant from the Japanese
Government, will be digital ready.
The process of dismantling the gigantic, obsolete transmitter and its
antennae component and installing the new one will take six months. To
keep its Hausa language listeners during this transition, Radio Nigeria
Kaduna recently commissioned a new Hausa language FM station in Kaduna.
It also temporarily fixed its old shortwave channel [6090 kHz] on the 49
