3月1日から始まると情報のあった、ソマリア向け放送、どちらの周波数へ出るのか待ち受け中。1556に9960kHzでVTC Musicが始まった。1600開始テーマ曲、女声のアナウンス、コーランと続いた。1657に再び女声アナ、コーラン、終了アナウンスで1700終了。
1700からAWRが出てきたが54秒後にキャリアーOFF。
0500の15750kHzは弱かった、聴いた限りでは同じような構成。ウェブサイトには社長のメッセージが載っている。FMの番組表によれば、2回ともPrime-time newsとなっている。

Message from the Director of Bar-Kulan
David Smith
Bar-kulan a new Somali Radio, contributing to peace, stability and prosperity for all Somalia
Bar-Kulan test transmisions are beginning this Monday at 05h00 UTC (8 AM in Somalia). It is a very exciting time for Somali-language radio. A dedicated team of Somali journalists has been working hard to bring to you credible, independent programming about, for and by Somalis.
Bar-Kulan speaks with its own voice. Editorial independence is its bedrock. Bar-Kulan is answerable only to the people who produce its content and the people of Somalia and its Diaspora.
As with any new media outlet, the rumour mill runs rampant before the first broadcasts have hit the airwaves. We have even received reports of people listening to our programmes before the transmitter has been switched on!
The most prolific rumour circulating about Bar-Kulan is that it is the mouthpiece of international organisations based in Mogadishu – this is absolutely NOT TRUE. Bar-Kulan invites all who are interested in the peace, safety and prosperity of Somalia to take part in what it is doing. The discussion table is open to everybody, and monopolised by nobody.
Welcome to the home of independent Somali thought and information. Welcome to Bar-Kulan. Everywhere.
