Developments
on the Buenos Aires AM dial
Radio del Buen Ayre, Ituzaingó, Partido de
Ituzaingó, is a new station on 1400 kHz,
reported in June by Arnaldo Slaen, who picked up
the station announcing 4661-4784 as its telephone
number. Radio del Buen Ayre has been broadcasting
different types of non-stop music as part of its
test broadcasts.
Radio 750 is a new licensed station in the
Greater Buenos Aires, heard by Arnaldo Slaen on
June 17, driving neighboring Radio Cooperativa to
move from 740 to 770 kHz. Radio Cooperativa in turn
is an unlicensed station that seems to have replaced
another unlicensed station on 770, namely Amplitud
770, located in Lomas del Mirador, Partido de La
Matanza. On its website Amplitud 770 says that its
transmission tower was destroyed on July 2, forcing
the station off the air, after which another station
took over the frequency in less than two days time.
The battle for 770 AM was reported by Marcelo A.
Cornachioni.
