Dear Editor,

IT IS sad that, after so many new radio stations were launched in Guyana, Berbicians still cannot receive the signals of 98.1 FM on their radios. For many years, the online broadcast of this station has been on and off. CEO after CEO has been changed at this entity, yet none of them can get the job right. There’s a poor availability of the online broadcast of VOG and RR, but none at all for 98.1 FM. I think it’s time the Government pay a close eye into this matter and allow NCN to relay its radio signals in a clearer manner to Berbice.

Another matter I would like to raise is in the form of a question: What has happened to the Basil P Show aired from 6pm to midnight on Sundays on 98.1 FM for over a decade?

What is the justification for this show not being on air? I know GTT was a major sponsor for a few hours of the programme. If this company has pulled its support, I am kindly asking them to rethink their decision. I am also asking NCN to bring back this programme to the nation. Basil Persaud is a very talented disc jockey who has made a huge contribution to the world of music and radio.

Please, NCN, return the programme on air.
