Our informant reports:

``The court has said that effective today the VOA/Marti/RFA will
resume broadcasting. The court also said the USAGM must file a report
monthly stating how the original goals of the VOA are being met (like
the old days). Meaning the original charter. When the broadcasting
resumes on shortwave, I don`t know exactly.

I heard that Kuwait had got three new transmitters from Ampegon, power
unknown. Greenville has received one 100 kW transmitter by
Continental, I think. It was one that was never installed and was in
storage for years. This will replace the AEG 500 kW rig, GB8. Macon
Dail is still the only breathing inhabitant (except for a few mice and
some snakes) at the station at this time.`` (Glenn Hauser, WOR)

Not to be confused with R. Dabanga, the SW target broadcast to Sudan!
Neither provides a plain old program schedule (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
