TWR DRM Return to the Air

Hi everyone,

Most of you know that Typhoon Mawar damaged KTWR's antennas to the point that no broadcasts have gone out from that station for the past two weeks. Several factors have made it very difficult for the team on Guam to get the antennas back in operable condition. We are sorry that is has taken so long to resume broadcasting from this site.

In the meantime, TWR has been working diligently to find other broadcasters who can air our programs during KTWR's downtime. As of the time of writing this note, ~50% of the KTWR programs have been covered by other transmitter sites. This includes some of our DRM broadcasts.

As of Tuesday, 6 June, the following DRM broadcasts will resume. They will be transmitted from Tashkent.

Frequency (kHz)       Day      Time (UTC)     Coverage Area

15390                        Tu-F      1515-1545       South Asia

15390                        Su          1500-1545      South Asia

15205                        Su          1600-1630      South Asia

We will keep you posted on the progress in getting the rest of the DRM broadcasts back on the air.

73 and may the Lord bless you.
