                     While 
                      visiting Trujillo in mid October 1985, I first heard the 
                      transmission of Radio El Porvenir on the measured frequency 
                      of 3904 kHz. The station has given the identification as 
                      "Desde el distrito de El Porvenir, Trujillo, la 
                      ciudad de la eterna primavera, transmite Radio El Porvenir, 
                      La Voz del Norte Peruano, en la frecuencia de los 3950kHz 
                      banda de 90 metros onda corta." Although the frequency was 
                      nominally announced as "3950 kHz", it has drifted between 
                      3900 kHz and 3955 kHz. 
                     Radio 
                      El Porvenir was founded and operated by Manuel Domingo 
                      Gil Gil. He is also the owner of Radio Huamachuco (founded 
                      on August 13, 1975) which formerly broadcast with the same 
                      shortwave transmitter. The station used "Jeloso" brand transmitter 
                      (0.25kW) feeding into a 1/2 wavelength dipole antenna. While 
                      the station was active on shortwave, it operated at 1000-0400. 
                      After having been on the air for about one year, its studio 
                      and transmitting equipment were dismantled by the MTT, because 
                      of the illegal broadcasting operation. 
                     Currently 
                      OCZ2Q Radio El Porvenir broadcasts on the authorized 
                      frequency of 99.9MHz with an output of 0.5kW.
