Radio Guinea out of air, Radio Kahuzi irregular due to electricy problems.

Sunday, June 02 2019


CONGO, 6210.2, Radio Kahuzi, Bukavu, irregular at closing time (1730-1803*).
At this time can be heard here when propagation conditions are good. Some
days out of air and other on. I have contacted with the station, via email
and here is the replay about electricity problems.


"Thank you for your questions and monitoring !
We have been on the air most mornings, but city-wide problems have limited
most zones to one or two hours during the day and similarly

the nights !
And we were on the air yesterday morning (8h35 to 9h50) and evening the 28
May 2019 -- however, the SNEL cut the current for Bukavu after we relayed
the News, after about half an hour at about 18h45.
Today we were on SW 6210 KHz 8h26 to10h00 and lacked current until the
evening when it was cut several times until about 19h20 until a cut-off by
SNEL at 19h45.

We hope conditions were good enough for you to pick up our signal again.
The main problem seems to be that reconnections of city cables are made
without proper use of tape and protection of supply aluminum

cables from the rains and short circuits.
You can imagine how difficult it is to be on the air and protect equipment
from current swings to 180 Volts or 380 Volts, when there

are short circuits in local cabinets where the transformers are.
Keep Looking UP !"

ECUATORIAL GUINEA, 5005, Radio Nacional, Bata, irregular at open time, at
about 0510, more days on, but some days off air. Yesterday, May 31 open at
