RNZI Rangataki : 120 deg of coverage for relay coverage....

http://www.rnzi.com/pages/technical.htm
The 35 degree beam covers the South Eastern Pacific, and North America. The
325 degree beam covers the South Western Pacific, NE Australia, Japan, China
and Europe.

With the antennae combined, virtually all the Pacific Basin is covered.

Last week you were on about the CBC relaying Radio New Zealand and Radio
Australia. Now it's vice-versa this week? What ex-British Empire
countries
will be chosen for next week?

Why do you think Radio New Zealand's facilities should be used as a relay
station? To my knowledge, they don't relay for anyone. So bringing on
board RCI would involve the installation of satellite equipment and such.
Surely the existing facilities at Meyerton, South Africa or Singapore
would
be much better suited for such an endeavor and also would deliver a better
signal into Oceania, considering the RNZI transmitter site has a very
limited range in that, if memory serves, the beam only points due north
and
a little to each side.

And there's still the other, and more important, point to consider: why
bother relaying Canadian content into Oceania? What is the market need
for
Candian content?
