Catholic Radio Network, at Vanimo, using 4960, is now operational, having
commenced initial commissioning transmissions during the local PNG evening
on June 4.

It is running 24-hrs, carrying relays of the CRN FM network from Port
Moresby and other programming.

Here in Melbourne, it's providing good reception throughout our darkness
hours from 1300 until past 2100, and reception in Japan is similarly good
during darkness hours.

Technical monitoring reports should be sent to the Engineering Construction
Manager, Mr. Wayne Wilson, in Port Moresby, at I am
working closely with Wayne on technical issues of coverage outside of the
local service area, so would you kindly also forward copies of monitoring
reports to me, at

There is some concern that coverage is reaching much further than
anticipated, and we will be assessing daytime coverage.

Regards!
