This item was on the RRI English newscast at 0000 UT July 1, also now on
the RRI website:

"TRANSMITTER Radiocom, the company broadcasting Radio Romania 
International's programmes, has announced a new series of repair works 
carried out on a transmitter in Tiganesti, close to Bucharest. The 
company is stepping up efforts to mend the transmitter and render it 
operational by August this year. Unfortunately, the defective 
transmitter is presently affecting the RRI English transmissions beamed 
to New York, Los Angeles, London, Tokyo and Australia, the transmissions 
in French to Montreal and Central Africa, in Russian to Moscow and 
Novosibirsk, in German to Berlin, in Spanish to Mexico, Madrid, Buenos 
Aires and Brazil and in Chinese to Beijing."
This transmitter has been out of service for over two months, with 
English to NA on 9550 at 0000 and 7375 at 0300 missing during that time.

We are delighted to announce that our shortwave transmission from Kimje,
South Korea will be normalized after a three week test transmission
starting at 0400 UTC on July 8th, 2019. We thank you for your patience
during the past year.

Our English programming on 9785 kHz that was initially moved to 
1800-2100 UTC due to a transmitter problem will be back on 1400-1700 UTC 
at a stronger output of 250 kW.
Listeners who tune into our programs on 11810 kHz and 15575 kHz can also 
expect to enjoy better reception since the current 100 kW transmitter 
will be replaced by a 250 kW transmitter.
Please be sure to tune into KBS World Radio during the test transmission 
period and send us your reception reports. Your feedback will help us 
find ways to improve your listening experience.
