If you want news while it is news, don`t wait for Gerry Dexter and Pop Comm. 
We had this from BBC Monitoring in DXLD back on JUNE 5; wonder how it got 
into PopComm?? Certainly no permission from us.

** CAMEROON. Radio, TV restructuring to include international radio,
satellite

The Cameroon Radio and Television Service [CRTV] has held its board
of directors meeting. After four years of inactivity, a discharge of
the director general for good governance was certainly not
expected...

Plans for national satellite feed and renovation of shortwave
transmitter

The board meeting  made a number of decisions. The CRTV will
broadcast via satellite so as to cover the whole country efficiently.
The project will cost over 3bn CFA francs [2.85m pounds]. In
addition, the international radio programme will resume with the
renovation of the Soa 100-kW shortwave station [Radio Cameroon
broadcasts intermittently on 4850 kHz shortwave.] The board of
directors also recommended the creation of an editorial writing
school and an engineer leadership school. Other innovations were
made: special correspondents, consulting engineers, directors of
photography and production manager units. The major innovation is
undoubtedly the creation of an advertising sales division. This marks
the end of receipts without counterfoils and commitments that are not
respected.

This months Pop Comm, Gerry Dexter as a note that Cameroon has renovated 
it's xtmr and should start up soon on 4850 from 04 till 0000.  He notes that 
for those of us in the eastern part of the U.S., best time to check would be 
late afternoon this fall.  Gerry also has a nice column on Clandestines.
