SAO TOME E PRINCIPE Thanks to the kind assistance of Ben Dawson
involving several email communication interchanges, I pleased to announce
the following updates to the Current & Extinct Shortwave Transmitter Sites
within the respective Excel files.
- Extinct SW Station; Radio Nacional is/was located at the same VOA site
at Pinheira; in fact the SW transmitter [4806] is/was located within the
same building as the VOA transmitters.

SERBIA 6100 BIJ (Bijeljina-Jabanusa, Bosnia) 250 kW on small curtain
antenna with wider beam at 310 degrees, gain is 14,15 dB
7115 BIJ (Bijeljina-Jabanusa, Bosnia) 250 kW on big curtain antenna with
shorter beam at 310 degrees, gain is 18,19 dB
7240 BEO (Beograd[Belgrade]-Obrenovac-Stubline, Serbia) 10 kW on only one
non-directional dipole antenna, which is also on 310 degrees, but since it
has no reflector, it radiate also backwards at 130 degrees, so it is
approximately non-directional.
International R Serbia plans to buy a new non-directional antenna and a
double rhombic on a spring/summer 2008 for Stubline and Bijeljina. They're
also planning to move Stubline to 7200 kHz as of A08 season (12
hours/day). Bijeljina will stay on 6100 kHz because that is a longtime
used frequency of Intl R Serbia.
In Stubline currently they have only 1 dipole antenna, because the good
antenna was dismantled, and that is because all of copper has been stolen
by thieves. Their long-range plan is to buy a completely new transmitter
for Stubline station which would be broadcasting in AM and DRM mode.
