Haere Mai. Welcome! At last we have some good news! RNZI will be back
on air with a reduced service - from 1700 UTC on Monday 8 September.

RNZI will lease time on Radio Australia. Listen from 1700 to 2115 UTC
Monday to Friday, and on Saturdays from 1700- 2015 UTC on frequency
9580 kHz.

RNZI's transmitter is off the air with a serious fault - we regret
this interruption to our short-wave service to the Pacific . Our
Internet feed is not affected and programmes are available via the
real audio live stream and Pacific News is also available for
download.


That's 10 AM to 2 PM here on the west coast. I'll be lucky to hear the
first hour next Saturday before they fade out.

Why can¹t they get their transmitter fixed? Did it burn down?

Mostly likely a major component such as the modulation transformer
burned up causing collateral damage or there was some serious failure of
the antenna system that requires considerable time to repair.

Modulation transformer?
