Radio Asia AM, the first Malayalam Radio Station in the Gulf and the Middle East region, is set to increase its reach by changing its frequency from 1557 kHz to 1269 kHz from 11th Aug 2007 onwards, said Brij Bhalla, General Manager. The new 1269 AM Radio Asia will further enhance its foot print across UAE and other GCC countries. Along with the change of frequency, a series of new programmes are also in the pipeline.
The station has shut down for 15 days while the broadcasting team tests the new 24 hour grid of programmes and latest software and equipment in the studios at Ras Al Khaimah. The FM service continues normally. Listeners can still stay connected through www.radioasiauae.com .
