Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] TWR Bonaire "Power Up Project"

Glenn, I thought you might have, but  I apparently missed it--should have done a search!  However, I don't recall seeing it specifically on the NRC or IRCA reflectors.  It did take me by surprise, though--I had just randomly surfed to the TWR website last night and there it was.  As Bob Galerstein asked on the NRC list, didn't they power down because the 500kW plant was such a power hog?  I didn't see anything on their site addressing electrical grid or environmental concerns.  On the TWR Facebook page they mention installation is planned for sometime in the summer, but I've never found a specific timetable anywhere.  Their website does mention receiving a reception report/QSL request from New Zealand earlier this year....

We had this plan some months ago in DX Listening Digest.

So does this cause any concern now among US or Canadian regulators? Does TWR have to do anything with NARBA or just go for it? Of maybe that`s why it`s `only` 450 kW?

WRTH shows no Cubans or Brazilians on 800, but there are several stations now in most other S American countries, the DR but nowhere else in Caribbean; in most Central American countries, numerous Mexicans.
