Portuguese public broadcaster RDP confirmed yesterday it was temporarily suspending its shortwave transmissions as of 1 June because of the low number of listeners and as a means of cutting costs. RDP said it would be reviewing the service to see whether it would go back on air at a later date. Listeners around the world can still follow their favourite programmes via satellite, cable and Internet.
The Portuguese broadcaster said it was “just one of many global broadcasters who are reducing or closing their SW transmissions”.
