The Australian Broadcasting Corp. has announced ambitious international expansion plans, which initially focus on launching TV and radio services in China and India, followed by a staged rollout to the Middle East, Latin America and Europe and North America, managing director Mark Scott said Wednesday night.

The ABC currently operates the Australia Television network and Radio Australia, with AUS$34 million ($30.6 million) per year in government funding. Australia Television broadcasts in 44 countries in Asia Pacific, reaching over 22 million homes, while Radio Australia has a network of 15 FM stations in almost every Pacific capital, and Cambodia and Laos, runs a digital radio service in Singapore, and broadcasts on shortwave in eight Asian languages.

Question: Are the Australian regional shortwave outlets (like VLM4 if I remember the call correctly) still on the 60 or 49 meter bands? I haven't heard one in many years......
