Millions tune in to Pakistan lifeline through BBC Urdu service
Posted: 16 Aug 2010 01:04 AM PDT
Millions in Pakistan began tuning in to emergency lifeline radio programming, as BBC Urdu launched a new service to people in the most severely flooded areas of the country.
Special programmes will be broadcast each day in Urdu at 12.30, 15.30 and 18.30 and in Pashto at 12.45, 15.45 and 18.45 (local times).
Each transmits crucial up-to-date information to the hundreds of thousands of people currently cut off from humanitarian aid.
Highlights from Monday’s – 9 August – first day of programmes included:
Updates on affected flood areas – from food distributions to weather forecasts Testimonies from displaced people A spotlight on relief efforts Hero of the day An interview with Pakistan ’s President Zardari
Speaking from Pakistan, the BBC Urdu service’s Shafi Naqi Jamie says:
“We provide the millions whose lives and homes have been destroyed with a radio lifeline. Listeners hear about where to get food and shelter and how best to survive. But as important, by establishing a platform for people’s voices and stories, we aim to rebuild a sense of community and morale as well.”
With the crisis increasingly affecting the south of the country, the BBC Urdu’s programme will be broadcast on up to 34 partner stations, reaching over 60 million people.
The infoasaid lifeline service has been developed by BBC World Service Trust and Internews, with funding from the UK’s Department for International Development.
infoasaid aims to improve how humanitarian agencies communicate with disaster affected communities. The emphasis is on the need to deliver information, as aid itself, through the most appropriate channels.

Radio St. Helena Day 2010 : Date,Times and Targets
————————————————————-
RSD 2010 will be on 11092.5 kHz USB, Saturday, 9th October 2010
=======================================
Target Region Times (UTC ) Beam Heading
=========== ============== ==========
EUROPE 1900 – 2030 UTC 10 degrees
INDIA 2030 – 2130 UTC 70 degrees
JAPAN 2130 – 2300 UTC 50 degrees
North America 2300 – 0030 UTC 310 degrees
Gary Walters, Station Manager of Radio St. Helena, has just confirmed the above information,and, as usual, Derek Richards will operate the RSD shortwave transmitting facility. There will be a special email-address exclusively for the evening of RSD 2010. As soon as Gary sets up this special email account, will be published.
The RSD 2010 QSL cards are being sponsored by the Danish ShortWave Club International. Reception reports for RSD 2010 should be sent with sufficient return postage to RSH using thespecial Airmail address via Ascension and the United Kingdom — exactly the same procedureas for the RSD 2009 reception reports. ALL mail to RSH should use this procedure. ALL 266 QSLs for RSD 2009 have been mailed and should now be arriving around the world.
The sunspot minimum between sunspot cycles 23 and 24 is the longest in history — much to the dismay of shortwave listeners everywhere. This minimum has lasted since 2007 and is still ongoing. There are not very many sunspots to “help” propagation, and there is no real sign of significant change. The UTC-times for broadcasting to the various target area have been very carefully selected to to have the very best chance of good reception in each area. Also, we need to have the RSD broadcasts one after the other.After RSD 2009, it was decided to change the times somewhat and to move RSD from November to October (as was the case back in the late 1990’s — Thanks, John). RSH hopes that everyone around the world has excellent reception conditions during RSD 2010 and is looking forward to your emails and also, if possible, to your telephone calls.

Recordings will not be returned. In EURO-countries, please send a 5-Euro banknote. Otherwise, please send 3 or more US dollar banknotes to cover the required return postage.

I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
