Yeah, but the nominal total programme supplier to Kordia's 783 tx at TItahi Bay as I understand it is "Wellington Access Radio". Access has a huge small-group contributory programme source. However, AFAIK, Samoa Capital leases/brokers a block (~40 hours/week), rather than being a production uni

Hi Theo, You are definitely the expert on Kiwi station programming! The funny thing was that the 2012 WRTH had Wellington 783 kHz listed as Access Radio (which I had always assumed that it was), but the new 2013 WRTH has changed the listing to "Samoan Capital Radio." I was going by the new WRT

Great stuff, Gary. Um, but that's the strangest Samoan programming I've ever heard (on 783)! That would be Wellington Access Radio with a South Asian segment. I can't get Access' website to spit out a schedule, either on the PC or tablet, but Samoa Capital Radio's sked suggests they don't h
