Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Peter Veenendaal, who shares the following video and notes:
I am a former employee of Radio Netherlands Worldwide, which stopped broadcasting exactly 5 years ago next May.
Three years ago I made this short video of the Flevoland Shortwave station RNW used until 2007. It’s still there, idle and hoping for better times.

Many thanks, Peter–most impressive! The magnitude of those curtain antennas is simply amazing. Thank you for sharing.
So sad to see it sitting idle. I was one of many contributors to Radio Netherlands “Media Network” programme, and paid the Flevo station a visit with Jonathon Marks, the presenter & producer. I’ll have to dig up the photographs I took at the time.
Great video. Thank you Peter and Thomas.
I used to listen to Bonaire RNW. I bet nothing is left there.
