540 KHz, AM 540 is still off the air since last June, it should be noted that this station has a clandestine declaration dictated against it by ENACOM during July 2022.

680 KHz, ACTIVE RADIO, from Glew, Admiral Brown Party, still off the air, last heard in mid-June. This station heavily interfered with RADIO MAGNA “RM La 680”, the station with studies in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, which emits on the same frequency.

690 KHz, K24 ON RADIO is reported reactivated at this frequency, after several weeks in which it broadcasted irregularly and has been off the air, only audible through its Web Page. It is added that the station has recently changed its P Transmitter rim, which is is now located in the town of Isidro Casanova, where it operates with an antenna of 100 meters.

750 KHz, LRL203 RADIO AM 7-50 plans to launch its new Modulated Amplitude Transmitting Plant, which is already being built and is on trial run. It is located in the town of Villa La Florida, Partido de Quilmes (Coordinates: 34°45’30.4″S, 58°18’16.2″W). It is estimated that the current antenna used by the station from the premises of the National University of Lomas de Zamora, on the University Campus of Llavallol, will stop being used by this station once its new mast is put into operation.

810 KHz, FEDERAL RADIO is down again, apparently with serious technical problems that do not allow it to radiate its signal regularly.

1160 KHz, RADIO INDEPENDENCE, from Remedies of Climbing, Party of Lanús, continues to generate a serious intermodulation in the spectrum, due to some misfit in its transmitter antenna.
