writes in the PCJ Facebook group: Radio France is joining many other public broadcasters
in Europe and will end all broadcasts on longwave and mediumwave. This will
save 13 million euros annually.
Last week the details were announced: At the
end of this year, the two mediumwave transmitters of France Bleu (864 kHz and
1278 kHz) and the remaining nine mediumwave transmitters of France Info (603,
711, 1206, 1242, 1377, 1404, 1494 and 1557 kHz) will be silenced. Last year,
three high power stations of France Info were already closed.
At the end of
2016. France-Inter will disappear from the longwave frequency 162 kHz.
