ARC Newsflash: NRK Vigra 630 kHz closing down

Eivind Motland reports: Norwegian public broadcaster NRK will cease broadcasts on 630 kHz from the Vigra mediumwave transmitter on 30 June. The purpose of keeping it on the air simply isn't there anymore, as it primarily is targeted towards the fishing fleet to let them get the weather reports.

Today NRK broadcasts weather forecasts on dedicated channels on satellite and DAB. (RN Media Network via Tore Larson, ARC)
