PNG's Wantok Radio Light adjust frequency


Wantok Radio Light, is the shortwave service of the PNG Christian Broadcasting Network, a non-profit Christian organization, listener-supported radio ministry, based in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea.

For some time, the station has received numerous complaints for operating in the 40 meter band on 7120 kHz. The station has recently adjusted their operational frequency to 7325 kHz. Despite this frequency also being in 40 meter band, as was the original one, it will likely result in additional complaints from the amateur radio community. One wonders what they think they have accomplished.

All times UTC, kHz. Daily broadcast in English and indigenous languages. Targeted to various areas.
