Another service broadcast from Canada is given by the United Nations transmissions, which are heard daily (except Monday) from 3.0 p.m. until 3.30 p.m. from CKCS (15.32 mc/s., 19.58 metres), and CKNC (17.82, 16.83). This programme opens with United Nations News and follows with the UN review "The United Nations To-day." KZRH Manila RATHER interesting programmeinteresting in that it.is the only shortwave broadcasting transmission heard locally which carries advertising material-is that of KZRH Manila. Each evening when GVZ closes down, the "Voice of the Philippines" (on 9.64 mc/s., 31.12 metres) is heard rebroadcasting the programme presented by the local Philippine station.
