Staffers at Israel Radio say, that in 'mid October', the Kol Israel
English broadcasts will be moved to the REQA network instead of
Reshet
Alef. The English radio news would broadcast at the following local
Israel times: 0630-0645, 1245-1300, 1900-1915
Those of you who listen in Israel (whether a resident or just
visiting),
please mail Mr. Barel and let him know what you think of the time
changes
and how local reception of REQA compares to Reshet Alef.
Mr. Yosef Barel, IBA Director General
IBA House
Jaffa Road
Jerusalem
REQA is available on the following frequencies - so you can listen and
find out how reception is in the area you are in, even if you don't
understand the Russian or Amharic that REQA is currently broadcasting:
Akko 1575 AM (MW)
Yavne 954 AM (MW)
Upper Galilee 94.4 FM
Haifa 93.7 FM
Tel Aviv 101.2 FM
Jerusalem 101.3 FM
Beer Sheva 107.3 FM
Of course, if the local times change, it would impact shortwave and
web
broadcasts as well. Since these are domestic broadcasts, the primary
concern is the domestic audience.
How come Israeli FM has both even and odd numbered frequencies? In the
US, all FM is odd, ie 101.1, 101.3, 101.5, etc. But the list above has
both even and odd. Also, don't the Tel Aviv and Jerusalem freqs
interfere, since the cities are only 30 miles or so apart?
