I my county in the Enver Hoxha Era the Domestic network of Radio Tirana was the following:
Tirana: 99.5 MHz . Was mono and used simple telephone line for modulation. (Started in 1980 to feed the transmitters of Kukes, Korca, Gjirokastra, Shkodra and Saranda. Penetration of FM capable receivers was very low, the main purpuse of 99.5 was the feeding MW transmitters)
Shijak: 1089 kHz
Fllaka: 1458 kHz
Kukes: 648 kHz
Korca: 1260 kHz
Gjirokastra: 909 kHz
Shkodra: 693 kHz
Saranda: 864 kHz
They was switched off in 2002 due financional reasons.
The external MW broadcasts was on 1214 and 1395 kHz. Russian, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, English, etc...
Often switched off the power in nearby vilages, to have enough power to the transmitters! My country was suffered from power outages. in the 80's!
