Gradually come the information for the resumption of individual radio
stations of ERT as coordinators working intensively to prepare the new
transmissions. Resuming
the short wave program "The Voice of Greece", also known as ERA 5 aimed at
expatriates is also on its way. The
program of Greece's Voice will include newscasts every hour to broadcast the
first program while there will also be two programs specifically aimed at
expatriates, but the exact times have not been
announced.
The
Voice of Greece programs will be broadcast via shortwave from facilities in
Avlis, which the previous government's Finance Ministry had tried to sell as
scrap. The
facilities remained intact thanks to the former employees, so no technical
problems remain. The programs continued to be broadcast thanks to former ERT
employees from Athens and Thessaloniki. Continuing
Greece Voice for the last two years was being observed and followed by lovers of
shortwave broadcasting enthusiasts. The frequencies of the Voice of Greece to
Europe will probably be the same, 9420 and 7475 KHz.
