Perhaps the old antenna system at Landhi had been allowed to fall into
disrepair, or would not have been suitable for the new 100 kW. And BTW,
the "new" API-9 unit at Rewat was apparently one that had been delivered
many years ago for Azad Kashmir Radio at a place called Mirpur and never
used. This according to Aslam Javaid. It is no longer listed, so assumed
to be inactive. When it was tested it put out a nice clean signal, but was
only used for a few hours each day.
