VOA: Cutbacks and A Shutdown
« on: July 29, 2024, 1616 UTC »
VOA and it's parent organization the USAGM has been quietly eliminating some stuff in the last month.

gone is the 15690 of R. Farda from Biblis.
Also gone is the VOA in French on 9885 at 0430 is gone.

And reportedly, the Sao Tome & Principe site has been shut down in entirely.   No word on if any of those broadcasts have moved elsewhere, but one casualty is the high powered 1530khz broadcast of the VOA that isn't going to be moving elsewhere, as far as I know.
