The tsunami disaster has spurred at least one country to put its national
broadcasting service in order. In the Pacific state of Vanuatu, only half
the population can hear the national broadcasting service, because the
shortwave transmitters were allowed to fall into disrepair some years ago.
But now, reports The Independent, at the insistence of the country's Prime
Minister they're frantically working to get 7260 kHz - the daytime
frequency - working again properly. After that, the night time frequency of
3945 kHz will also be put back on the air as quickly as possible.
