MALDIVE ISLS/GERMANY We've had a last-minute cancellation by Minivan
Radio, which will end its broadcasts on March 24, just before the A07
season begins and the frequency change [to 11725] would have taken place.
They say they expect to get a license from the Maldives government for an
FM station within the next month or so. We wish them all the best, but I
am very skeptical that the government will allow them to broadcast
locally, at least with any degree of freedom of expression.

The RN DST-shifted schedule for NAm which came from
and turned out to be wrong, has now been replaced at exactly the same URL
by Interim summer schedule: 11 March - 25 March 2007 (exclusive) which
strangely enough is still back-dated "23-10-2006" tho it must have been
modified in the last few days.
Now it shows the morning broadcast at 1200 UT on 11675, instead of summer
timing of 1100 I assumed but did not confirm, that they had really changed
that one, since they always do, and we are, after all, on DST here, like
it or not, already!
The evening broadcasts once again show correctly as 0000-0200 and 0500-
0600, and the weekend afternoons as 1900-2100 UT, where they are going to
stay, except 0500 will shift to 0400 UT.

The R. Netherlands A-07 technical schedule is also now on the Radio
Netherlands website in the usual Web format.
Please note that the text version doesn't include the new morning
broadcast of Voice of the People which, incidentally, uses a 250 kW
transmitter, so the field strength in Zimbabwe will hopefully make it more
difficult to jam effectively.
