What other frequencies do they use? I'm interested in the Tok Pisin
language of PNG but have never heard it spoken.


This from DXLD 4-002, January 4, 2004:

** PAPUA NEW GUINEA. On Dec 11, I was able to hear the following
stations from 0930 onwards: 3205, 3220, 3235, 3245 (!), 3260, 3275,
3290 (not regular), 3315 (not regular), 3325, 3355, 3365, 3375 and
4890.

9675, NBC, Port Moresby, 0308 (fade in)-0410, Dec 11, English, ``NBC
News``, weather forecast, ID: ``.. on Karai National Radio ... of the
Voice of Papua new Guinea... at 20 o`clock the news in brief``. At
best 34543 (Roland Schulze, Mangaldan, Philippines, DSWCI DX Window
Dec 31 via DXLD)**

The 90 meter band frqs will get you a taste of Tok Pisin (Pidgin)!
Lots of stations to be heard from PNG, when they are up and the band is
open.

Generally good for QSL's too.
