All India Radio in Arunachal Pradesh

Monitoring notes from Gautam Sharma in Assam.
-----------------------
According to latest Frequency Guide from All
India Radio, AIR Itanagar skd via shortwave
i.e. for A07 is as follows:

0025UTC to 0400UTC on 4990kHz
0700 UTC to 0900UTC on 6150kHz
1000UTC to 1630UTC on 4990kHz

And also there are medium wave stations of
AIR located at :
Itanagar (675 kHz)
Tezu (1332 kHz)
Tawang (1521 kHz)
Pasighat (1602 kHz)
Zero (1602 kHz).
There may be other AIR Radio Stations but not sure
about it. And believe there is no FM Radio Station
of AIR at present in Itanagar etc.But Postiv Radio
a division of North East Television has obtained
license to start a Privale FM Radio Station in
Itanagar along with Guwahati, Shillong & Agartala.
Already, its Guwahati Radio Station i.e. Radio Hoo
Laa Laa on 91.9 MHz has already started its operation.

A few days back, I heard & received fair signal of
AIR Itanagar on 4990kHz during 1130 UTC (approx.)
onwards during my monitoring & it was free from
any interference. But from the weekend, I couldn't
trace the signal of AIR Itanagar on 4990kHz. There
was no other Radio Station operating on that
frequency as per my monitoring. However, for 6150
kHz I didn't find trace of AIR Itanagar from 0700
UTC to 0900UTC till today.AIR-Itanagar on 675 kHz
on medium wave is audible during evening & night
here.
Alokesh, this is just a preliminary report. I'll
send you more report on AIR Itanagar via shortwave
etc on the basis of further monitoring soon.
JUST FOR YOUR INFO, ON THE WEEKEND I FOUND ON
SEVERAL FREQUENCIES ON FM BAND STRONG SIGNAL
OF CHINESE RADIO STATIONS AGAIN. SO, PERHAPS THEY
ARE NOW TARGETTING NOW FM BAND AFTER SHORTWAVE
& MEDIUM WAVE PLUS TELEVISION WAVE IN ARUNACHAL
PRADESH!!!!!!!

NE TV Reports also about Chinese Jamming of AIR
& Doordarshan in Arunachal:
North East Television also reported last week
about reported Chinese Jamming of AIR & Doordarshan
in Arunachal Pradesh in their News Bulletin. And
while a High Level Doordrashan Official declined
to comment on reported Jammings etc from Chinese
side stating that he was not authorised to talk
on that. But he stated that most of transmitters's
power are weak etc etc and they have sent already
proposal etc to higher authority to strengthen &
improve the transmissions etc.The report also
mentioned that NE TV have got license to start a
FM Radio Station in Itanagar.
