Maintenance works on Gharghur transmitting tower

The Broadcasting Authority notifies that that maintenance work is scheduled for next Saturday 27 August and switch-off will be necessary between 5am and 3pm.

“Given the nature of the work to be undertaken, this assignment has to be conducted during the day and necessitates a switch-off of analogue radio stations,” the BA said.

“We will strive to limit switch-off to the shortest time possible,” it added.

 Switch-on can take place earlier should the contractor conclude the work before 3pm.

Should unfavorable weather deter the works on the planned day, the assignment will be postponed to the following Saturday (i.e. 3rd September 2011 between 5am and 3pm) and a further notification will be issued. 

“Whilst apologizing for any inconvenience caused, the Authority through its contractor will strive to reduce as much as possible this switch-off of all analogue radio stations while also ensuring the smooth operation of this vital broadcasting hub.”
