FM Radio to be on air in Rajahmundry

Rajahmundry, December 26: `Vinandi.Vinandi.Ullasamga.Utsahamga'-
these words you might have heard in Visakha FM and also in
Hyderabad.
Now it is the turn of Rajahmundry. Sun Network is going to
launch its FM Radio programmes as New Year gift to people
of Rajahmundry. On Tuesday, the network started trial run.
According to Sun Network sources, they have taken a well-
furnished office on Tilak Road with sophisticated technology,
high frequency towers and other installations. "We have
completed all arrangements. We started trail run today.
We are chalking out programmes based on local customs,
culture and tradition to air programmes round the clock,"
said a senior executive of the Network. Trained jockeys
are ready to exhibit their talent to attract local
audience. On Tuesday, a large number of youths started
switching on their mobile sets and tuning FM Radio in
their sets with the help of cordless equipment. "One
of my friends said that FM is coming in our area. I was
thrilled. It is a new experience. We are listening songs
uninterruptedly from last night," said Vineet, an
undergraduate studying in VT College.
"When I heard only words-Vinandi.Vinandi.Ullasamga and
Utsahamga.I thought it is Visakha FM. Then some one told
me that is Rajahmundry FM. I was so thrilled. From now
my mobile will be dedicated to FM station," said
Madhulatha, studying in GIET College.
Two big companies -- Reliance and Sun Network -- have
announced that they will keep Rajahmundry people
enjoying with FM Radio. Sun Network is all set to air
its programmes officially from January 1. From now,
every auto rickshaw will be buzzing with FM tunes
and we have to wait, what would be the response of
RTC and hotels, restaurants and other establishments.
