Stig's right, but coming home on the train I was reading the latest issue of
Commonwealth Broadcaster where they claim that they will have three
transmitters back on the air by the end of the year. My article Voice of
Nigeria - A New Beginning? at
http://www.rnw.nl/realradio/features/html/von001010.html
has more details on this. Like Stig, I am sceptical, but don't necssarily
blame the announcers because someone has probably told them to start
announcing additional frequencies again :-)
