Comment by NG: KWT is another station that seems to have a "wish list" of
registered frequencies that are never used.
(Noel R. Green-UK, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Apr 21)
Well, 7600 is probably a mixing product of 13650 and 6050 kHz. Kuwait
seems to be on both frequencies. The rather weak signal of 7600 points
also to that direction.

KYRGYZSTAN KTR-Kyrgyzstan appeals for help. Friday 16 Apr 2010.
The ABU's member in the Kyrgyz Republic - the National TV and Radio
Corporation (KTR) - has appealed for help after suffering significant
damage in the recent clashes in the country's capital, Bishkek.
In the violence that led up to the ousting of the country's former
President, Kurmanbek Bakiev, four of KTR's five studios were attacked and
suffered irreparable damage.
Only the Zamana studio - where morning entertainment programmes are
produced - escaped damage because it is located in a separate building
away from KTR's headquarters.
Currently all of KTR's output is being broadcast from the Zamana studio,
but according to Musaeva Janar of KTR's Foreign Affairs Department,
equipment there has not been updated for many years and "may lead to
overload and failure of the only available equipment of the corporation".
KTR is appealing to broadcasters in other parts of Asia for donations of
cash or equipment to help it stay on air.
The ABU's Technical Department will help coordinate any offers of
technical assistance for the station.
