(April 23)<br />

MW Bremen 936 kHz off for good.<br />

Press release, issued yesterday:<br />

<br />

Says that in the four weeks since the transmitter has been switched off<br />

they received just under 200 reactions, so little feedback that they<br />

decided to rather spend the money on new technologies and program formats,<br />

especially since "in all likelyhood there will be no future-proof<br />

digitalization of mediumwave broadcasting".<br />

It has been considered to keep the transmitter on air at reduced power,<br />

but the operational costs would still be too high to justify it.<br />

As a gesture of appreciation the 200 listeners will be invited to a<br />

exclusive visit. (Comment: I suspect the event will become kind of a <strong>DX</strong><br />

meeting...)<br />

-- By the way, Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk has at present no plans to give up<br />

any of its mediumwave frequencies (783, 882, 1044, 1188 kHz), sources<br />
