Freedomnewspaper.com carries the transcript of an interview with Ms Sigga Jagne, Vice Chairperson of the Save The Gambia Democracy Project, about the “Baati Rewmi” (Voice of the Nation) radio station that recently started broadcasting on shortwave.
Unfortunately, according to the transcript, Ms Jagne twice says that the frequency is “1525 MHz” and that the broadcast is in association with “Radio Manny International”. This appears to the result of a transcription by someone with no knowledge of international broadcasting. In fact the organisation that arranges the broadcasts, via a transmitter in Germany, is Radio Miami International and the correct frequency is 15225 kHz. The programme is on the air every Saturday at 1815-1830 UTC.
The correct details are given on the Save the Gambia Democracy Project website.

The correct frequency is 15225 kHz!
Incidentally, the 29 May edition of the broadcast is on their website, and the frequency is announced right at the end of the recording.

Now corrected.
