VANUATU These new registrations in A-08 now
3945 0700-2000 56,51S PVL 10kW non-dir 400 Bislama VUT VBT RNZ
5055 0700-2000 56,51S PVL 10kW non-dir 400 Bislama VUT VBT RNZ
means PVL Port Vila VUT 17S44 168E33, according to ITU Geneve site list.
Antenna type 400 CHR(S)4/1/0.3 seems a little bit oversized ?
And Emten Lagoon acc mentioned in WRTH 2008, p413.
VTU Port Vila Emten lagoon 3945 / 5055 kHz 10 kW
Unfortunately half of the area is in in low resolution in Google Earth
around:
17 45 23.27 S 168 21 41.60 E
1.7 kilometers south of Montmartre village, 4.7 kilometers east of Port
Vila.
But much, much better visible on Yahoo Maps [at least 6 masts]
or lesser at Microsoft Virtual Earth
see also Emden Lagoon (lagoon Mumbato)
They are frequencies to be used by Vanuatu, along with 7260 kHz which is
to be the daytime frequency. 3945 & 5055 will be early morning and night
frequencies. Which one will be used will depend on propagation and sunspot
numbers. The new 10 kw transmitters are due on the air around October or
November, but it may be as late as December 2008.
The registrations are there in case the transmitters go to air before the
end of the A-08 season.
