LATVIA Correction of BC-DX TopNews #763 issue:
RNI Shortwave Update. Since 2002 various radio sces have been relayed via
the SW facilities of the LRTVC at Ulbroka. These relays were arranged via
a Latvian Company (KREBS TV).
Please note that KREBS TV no longer holds a SW broadcasting licence in
Latvia. In late 2005 the Latvian Broadcasting Council invited Tenders for
the establishment of a full commercial SW broadcast radio station.
On Friday 27th January 2005, the Latvian Broadcasting Council announced
that RNI had been granted a FULL commercial SW broadcasting licence. The
RNI broadcasting licence is NOT a temporary relay licence, as used by
previous operator KREBS TV.
RNI is now the ONLY officially sanctioned SW broadcast radio station in
Latvia.

As so often, releases from within the "anorak scene" should be read with a
bit of salt. It is Raimonds Kreicbergs who is the exclusive license owner
for the SW freq 9290 in Latvia. Not RNI, but Kreichbergs in person
received this license. RNI is the idea of a relay sce project by Andrew
Yates, who in earlier years was sub-renting SW airtime of Krebs TV under
