Default Visiting Radio Netherlands Bonaire

I will be in Bonaire soon. I was wondering if it is possible to visit
the Bonaire site, and how to arrange. I did not see this information on
the Radio Netherlands site.


If you're going to Bonaire you might want to see what is left of Trans
World Radio down there. For a while, RNW used TWR's facilities and one
used to be able to hear a bi-lingual version of RNW's "Happy Station
Show" in much of the U.S. on TWR's mighty half-a-megawatt transmitter
on 800 kHz. (down to, IIRC, 100 kw)

Here's a page about RNW Bonaire on the website of a Bonaire youth
center. I see stuff about touring the youth center but not RNW-B.
