The Bauchi Radio Corporation (BRC) has inaugurated a 50-kilowatt digital transmitter as part of measures to enhance its operations.
The radio was transmitting with a 10 kilowatt transmitter installed since its establishment more than 20 years ago.
Inaugurating the transmitter today in Bauchi, Alhaji Musa Hardawa, managing director, said the transmitter, which replaced the obsolete equipment, would enable the station to provide effective service to the people.
Hardawa said an additional 50 kilowatts transmitter would be installed at the Azare sub-station to enhance transmission to the northern parts of the state.
He urged staff members of the corporation to rededicate themselves to duty and work toward educating the communities for the rapid socio-economic development of the state.
With the new digital transmitter, the BRC will now be transmitting its services to all the 20 Local Government Areas and the neighbouring states.
The corporation has also installed two 15kVA transformers at Yelwa sub-station to ensure continuous power supply to the station.
