RNZ Pacific transmitter back on-the air


RNZ Pacific's transmitter 2 is back on air, after fault repairs have been completed.

Shortwave broadcasts were temporarily interrupted, but our satellite internet and streaming services were unaffected.

The repair work on transmitter 2 was carried out by RNZ's Transmission Engineer Specialist Steve White.

Last year, RNZ Pacific's short-wave transmitter 1 was decommissioned, and work on installing a new Ampegon transmitter started in January. This has temporarily reduced our capacity to manage faults, without a short break in service.

We apologize to our short-wave listeners around the world, for any inconvenience this may have caused.
