ARLA/CLUSTER: Re: [CT-Com. & Tec.] Estação de Ondas Longas RTE encerra a 27 de Outubro

[Carlos Mourato]

O melhor é fecharem as ondas longas, médias, curtas, VHF, e acabar com a
radiodifusão. Nada melhor que a internet e os smartphones para escutar
radio. Então em Àfrica e em todos os paises sub-desenvolvidos é ver os
habitantes nas favelas das cidades e nas palhotas do interior  de portátil
nas bancas e de smartphone no ouvido a escutarem rádio online. ..Sim porque
hoje em dia, qualquer habitante de Africa não tem acesso a agua potável,
mas tem computadores, smartphones, TV a cores LCD, Banheiras de
hidromassagem (embora não tenham água) e imaginem que até encontrei em
Luanda, apartamentos com Lareira!!!...E as palhotas com cozinha equipada a
rigor...Maquinas de lavar, microondas, forno, exaustor ...Tudo da MIELE
 como na Europa e nos EUA!!!...Ora para que precisam eles de rádios de
ondas medias, curtas e longas?
