Voice of Greece granted a reprieve - still broadcasting!
For two more months.
01 April 2022
The closure of the analog broadcast of the Voice of Greece has been delayed, even temporarily. With a decision taken last Wednesday and signed by ERT CEO George Gabritsos, the public radio and television announced that at the request of the Ministry of Defense, the Avlida shortwave broadcast center will remain active until May 31, when re-evaluating the conditions for the further continuation or not of its operation.
In an earlier decision, ERT had stated that its broadcast on shortwave would end yesterday, March 31, and had addressed the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Defense "to decide whether they want the continuation of the shortwave broadcasts, as well as the acquisition of ownership and the operation of the shortwave operation at their own risk " .
To further confirm this story, on April 1, Costas Krallis SV1XV, heard the Voice of Greece with the broadcast of an Eastern Orthodox Mass on 9935 kHz at 1655 UTC.
