  927 kHz - Nitra/Jarok 50 kW: now relays Rádio Patria (minority service) in Hungarian only - ex
Rádio Regina Bratislava / Rádio Patria

1098 kHz - Nitra/Jarok 50 kW: now relays Rádio Regina Bratislava (regional program) - ex Rádio
Slovensko


SHORT WAVES:

Radio Slovakia International, transmitter site Rimavská Sobota (3 transmitters): power reduced to
200 kW (ex 250).


FUTURE PLANS:

1035 kHz - Banská Bystrica 7 kW: will be put out of operation and replaced (from 1 APR 2004) by a
new transmitter on 702 kHz with Rádio Regina Banská Bystrica regional transmissions.

On short waves, one of the 3 transmitters in Rimavská Sobota will be put out of operation.
