PORTUGAL 1035 kHz 100 kW Belmonte & Canidelo 783 kHz 10 kW of R.
Comercial / R. Club (Portugues) finally dropped the temporary ID
"R.Portugal" on the 10th inst., as announced, because the f/ball world cup
ended on that date. However, instead of resuming RC(P) programming,
they're putting a diff. prgr... under the defunct ID of "Radio
Nacional"!... The good thing is that the VHF-FM network carried on with
RC(P) prgr during the World Cup, and still does, so I think "R.Nacional"
is something to be shortlived until September, when the stn is, as I
reported weeks ago, to become a news/talk radio.
As I feared, the name "Radio Portugal" was lauched by the group, and,
apparently, the RDP didn't succeed in putting an end to it before the
"panem et circenses" show in Germany ended meaning MCR managed to go ahead
with that name.
To this date, the new site of Avanca 783 kHz 100 kW is not operational
yet, though the antenna is already in place. It consists of a lattice
tower with several vertical elements around it. The hut housing the
coupling circuit is ready, but the txion line is not to be seen yet. At
any rate the estimated start of this new site is this Summer.
