9800 - Sawtu Linjiila
« on: January 01, 2014, 2036 UTC »
9800   FRANCE.  Sawtu Linjiila (Voice of the Gospel) - Issoudun. Caught the last five minutes of this broadcast at 1854 in the Fulfulde language (with a sprinkling of French words thrown in for good measure!), with religious talks and several IDs before s/off at 1859. Quite a respectable signal on Jan 1. Radio Sawtu Linjiila is an operation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Cameroon. Offices are located at the Christian Media Centre located in Ngaoundere, Cameroon. It opened on July 15, 1966 and aired its first broadcast November 6, in the same year. The website listed in the WRTH currently appears to not work and there is also a little-used Facebook page. Some people call this a clandestine station, which it is not! The latest HFCC registrations lists the language as Hausa, which is definitely not the case!! The target audience is West Africa and its programs are relayed over several local FM stations throughout the region.

73 and Happy NY
