The new B06 freq schedules for DW are now available on their website,
The English schedules have time adjustments for morning broadcasts to East
and South Asia, and the return of the evening broadcast to East Asia. And
note the different tx assignments relating to freqs from Wertachtal until
Dec. 31, then to other sites (including VT sites in the UK) after Jan.
1st; it's found in both the English and German schedules.
However, foreign lang sces only show their schedules until Dec. 31, so
>from Jan. 1st there may be changes or deletions to those broadcasts. Also
note the fact that the 0500, 0600 and 1900 UT broadcasts to Africa will
only be 30 mins in length, while the 0400, 2000 and 2100 releases remain
at 60 mins even when SW is still a necessity in parts of Africa DW feels
they have to cut some English broadcasts anyway!

GERMANY/CHILE DDR kontra Pinochet ? Mich fragt jemend aus Chile, ob es
von der DDR aus KW Sendungen 'gegen' Pinochet gegeben hat. Bitte schreibt
mir mal, was die DDR / RBI damals in Spanisch gesendet haben.
(Martin Schoech-D, A-DX Sept 24)
DDR kontra Pinochet ?
In der Tat sendete RBI nach dem Pinochet-Putsch in grossem Umfang fuer
Chile; es gibt Stimmen, die sagen, es waere zeitweise fast schon ein
reiner Chile-Sender gewesen. Fuer Einzelheiten muesste man Sendeplaene aus
den 70er Jahren ausgraben.
