After a year of bureaucratic hold ups, the joint Israeli/Palestinian All For Peace radio station has started broadcasting in English, Hebrew and Arabic on 107.2 MHz on the FM band. The transmitter is placed in Ramallah in the Palestinian Authority area and the broadcasts are 100% legal. The station put out test transmissions of non-stop music in English and Arabic in January and February on both 98.4 and 107.2 MHz, with the 107.2 frequency being the far superior. Reception reports have been received so far from Haifa in the North, to Gaza in the South, and from Cyprus. The signal is particularly strong in the Tel-Aviv area. Reception reports are welcome from those in the broadcast area to mlb@bezeqint.net.

I forgot to mention that the studios are in Jerusalem, enabling both Palestinian and Israeli staff access.
