1800-2200 UTC
702 kHz (Monte Carlo) for SW France, Central Europe
963 kHz (Finland) for NE Europe
1314 kHz (Norway) for NW Europe
6125 kHz (Flevo) for SW Europe
2000-2200 UTC
6040 kHz (Grigoriopol) for Europe
The use of 963 kHz via Pori, Finland was a late addition to the list of
frequencies published in the last Newsletter. Here in the Hilversum area,
it provided excellent reception. The transmitter was in use for YLE
programmes until 31 December 2006, when it was taken out of service, and
RNW is in fact the first foreign broadcaster to make use of relay
facilities in Finland.

PAKISTAN [c.f. bc-dx TopNews #801] There are some changes that I know
about Urdu (World Service to West Europe) 1700-1800 has replaced 9380 with
9375 due to PBS Manila using 9380 at 1730-1930. "Turkish" on 4835 at 1515-
1545 is actually Turki (spoken in parts of the ME and former CIS). Dari
shown at 1515- 1545 on 4835 (same time as above) is a "mistake". Actual
transmission time MIGHT be 1330-1400. [no, Turki is wrong: see further
