\"Kiribati\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Many thanks to SWLing Post<\/em> reader, Paul Walker, who writes:<\/p>\n

Thomas.. I know this isn’t quite SW news anymore, but Radio Kiribati used<\/em>to be on SW a while ago and is now on AM.<\/p>\n

I just found out something to those of us interested in Pacific radio signals. Radio Kiribati 1440 JUST started a live web stream…JUST…as in, like within the last few days!<\/p>\n

The audio levels can be a bit loud and overdriven at times, but i am corresponding with their Chief Engineer and the Radio station manager at the Broadcasting & Publications Authority in an effort to get levels set just right.<\/p>\n

The audio is average and I wouldn’t expect much more, quality wise, then what they’ve got now.. as most of these stations have hare basics when it comes to some equipment.
\nThe Radio Kiribati stream was just added to the Reciva.com database for internet radios and should be there soon if it isn’t already.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"CC-Wifi-Radio\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The stream is at http:\/\/202.6.120.13:8000\/<\/a> The stream itself is of amazing quality at 64k vorbis, which sounds good to my ears via my CC Wifi Radio<\/a> and CCrane Senta speaker.<\/p>\n

Radio Kiribati only broadcasts local programming at certain times of day. Sometimes I’ll hear Radio New Zealand International outside of local broadcasting, other times I won’t.<\/p>\n

TX times are as follows…most of their programming is in their native language, which is Gilbertese according to Wikipedia. It’s a Micronesian language of the Austronesian language family. They do three segments of English broadcasting every day, some 30 minutes long and one is an hour long.
\nKiribati is UTC+14… at 416pm Thursday in Southwest Arkansas, where i am.. it’s 916am Friday morning in Kiribati.<\/p>\n
