Afghanistan

Deutsche Welle on Kandahar TV

Germany's international broadcaster has provided the Afghan TV station with a 3.6 meter satellite dish and receiver, and is expanding its technical and programme assistance for Radio and Television Afghanistan (RTVA).

DW bought the satellite equipment in Islamabad, Pakistan, and sent it via Quetta in the south across the Afghan border to Kandahar. It was installed by technicians from Pakistan on 18 April. 

This follows a similar package for Kabul TV in 2002. 

DW-TV also supplies Kandahar TV with documentaries and features on a regular basis, and transmits news in Dari and Pashto from its studios in Berlin twice a day. Kandahar TV tapes the newscasts and rebroadcasts them at 18:20 and 19:20 local time.
