What a difference a few zeroes can make. Wow...with 300 megawatts
residents could cook meat with no stove in the immediate area of that
antenna. With 300 megawatts nobody would need a radio or an antenna.
But the provincial government will have to request that all Basilan
residents plug their generators into the station when it goes live.

The reporter when writing the story probably had a number related to
power and had heard the term megawatts somewhere along the line and
tied them together.

"Mike Terry" wrote in message ...
"Last week, a group of radio technicians and some volunteers from Barangay
Port Holland, a fishing village in Maluso predominantly inhabited by Muslim
Yakans and Tausugs, constructed a tower for the 300-megawatt community Peace
Radio."
