Radio Sweden adds two extra transmissions


Because of the crisis in the Middle East involving Israel and Lebanon (see this Radio Netherlands commentary <www.radionetherlands.nl/currentaffairs/isr060713> by Bertus Hendriks), Radio Sweden is adding two extra transmissions for Swedish listeners in the region. The domestic service half hour news programme Lunchekot is being relayed daily at 1030 UTC on 9490 and 21810 kHz. The Radio Sweden broadcast at 1200 UTC is also being broadcast to the region on 21810 kHz. Unfortunately this means the 1200 UTC transmission to Asia on 15735 kHz is cancelled.
