Man, 38 invents local FM station

Africa » Gambia
Wednesday, July 07, 2010
Amadou Jallow,a 38- year-old man and a resident of Churchill's Town has invented a local FM station called Peace FM. The station operates on the frequency of 102.0.

Jallow, who walked into the Daily Observer complex told these reporters that though he started transmission in 2009  it was not until 2010 that he gained a wider coverage within Churchill's Town. According to him, his reason for inventing the station is to respond to the needs of the society by educating, entertaining and informing the public of what happens in and around the world.

He explained that the new  station is  manually operated with an antenna,a propeller which serves as the satellite and a radio tape. According to him, he uses 4 KK batteries to support the transmitter for the effective functioning of the station.

He  added that, he came up with this initiative  not only  to contribute to the socio-economic development of the country but also to supplement the efforts of His Excellency Sheikh Professor Alhaji Dr. Yahya AJJ Jammeh.In conclusion, he appealed to the government, the private sector, philanthropists, NGOs and individuals  for their support in order to enable him update the equipment at the radio station and widen its coverage area.

Anybody willing to help can contact Amadou Jallow on the following numbers: 7803010/7052797/7518155/ 7425267.
