You will be pleased to hear that the RNW frequency is changing to 6140 kHz
as we have indeed had a number of reports of interference in the target
area. I think the change is happening tonight, but if not it will
definitely happen tomorrow (30th April).

NIGERIA Schedule changes of Voice of Nigeria, Abuja.
Here is the latest announcement made at the start of Voice of Nigeria's
"This Week on VON" at 1005 UTC on Sunday 25 April 2010 (listening online
at ):
"Broadcasts of programmes in English from this station can be heard on
three frequencies: 15120 kHz in the 19 metre-band to North Africa and
Europe, and 9690 kHz in the 31 metre-band to West Africa, and 7255 kHz in
the 41 metre-band also to West Africa.
Times of broadcasts on 15120 kHz are from 04.55 UT to 7 hours UT for the
first segment, and 15 hours UT to 19 hours UT for the second segment.
And for 9690 kHz programmes run from 9 hours UT to 15 hours UT.
On 7255 kHz programmes are broadcast from 19 hours UT to 20 hours UT."
This still doesn't seem to completely match what is actually being heard
on shortwave, but maybe it will settle down when all of the new
transmitters are on air.
