Tests on the Għargħur Transmitting Tower
Please be informed that on Thursday 20th and 21st February 2025, tests are being carried out on the Għargħur Transmitting Tower, weather permitting. Since during these tests, the master antenna will be switched off, the Authority will be switching all the transmissions onto the backup antenna at a reduced transmission power.
Tests are expected to start at noon (12:00) till 5 o’clock in the afternoon (17:00) on Thursday and 9 o’clock in the morning (09:00) and 5 o’clock in the evening (17:00) on Friday. We kindly ask you to have your technical personnel at least 15 minutes before the indicated time so that the necessary changes can be applied before the tests can start.
While thanking you for your cooperation, please inform your producers and presenters who will be notifying their listeners accordingly.
