POWER INCREASES AT 2ZA AND 2XP
The regional stations at Palmerston North and New Plymouth are now broadcasting from two-kilowatt transmitters. The new transmitters have been built on sites a few miles out of the two towns, but they run unattended and are remotely controlled from the studios. The districts these stations serve now receive wider coverage and better reception than they had with the original transmitters, which had been operating for many years. The Minister of Broadcasting (Hon. F. W. Doidge). was the first speaker when the stations switched over to higher power. Station 2ZA listeners heard him on Saturday, December 31, and he broadcast from 2XP om Monday, January 2.
