A new station from Latin America can be heard on 4962 kHz. The station
uses id "Radio Cima" or "Radio Sima".
According to information obtained on the phone from station manager
Agrimensor (Surveyor!) Roberto Vargas, and also treasurer of ASDORA,
Radio Cima 100 (cien) relays the FM transmission (100.5 MHz) on
shortwave 4962 kHz, 1 kW, between 2100 and 1000 hours UTC.
Their postal address is Apartado Postal 804, Santo Domingo.
The station appreciates reception reports, especially by fax, although
I can't recall the number at this very moment. Nontheless, it can be
had through Andy Sennitt, of the WRTH.
As for their slogan, "Cima caneando", the second word is a reference
to the Dominican girls' band Las Chicas del Can. "Canear" is a
completely new word not to be found in any dictionary, meaning
"dancing along in a festive mood" (as they do.)
I am sure Radio Cima would appreciate hearing from foreign listeners
in time before October 12th, which is the fifth centenary of the
discovery of the Americas, as they announce "proyectando la Republica
Dominicana en el quinto centenario." They were indeed very friendly
on the phone.
