GUINEA - Radio Familia (ex-4900 kHz & FM) ceased operations in February 2011 after a dispute between manager
and director. The 1 kW transmitter still is inside the country, but will not be reactivated there. There are plans for shipping
it to a neighbouring country, but nothing definite yet. This according to direct communications with the former management
of Radio Familia.
