Frequency change
All of Radio New Zealand's AM and FM licences expire on 2 April 2011 and new 20-year licences will apply from that date.
However, as this is a one-in-20 year chance to fix up any interference or inefficient use of spectrum issues, the Radio Spectrum Management division of MED are requiring some frequencies to change.
There will be about 250 frequency changes across the country and about 25 will affect Radio NZ's two FM networks.
Most of the Radio New Zealand National changes are slight adjustments within the 101 part of the band, but some of Radio New Zealand Concert's changes are significant.
Most of the changes will take place between April and November this year.
Frequency Change notification
On 5 February the RNZ Concert frequency from the Southshore transmitter changes from 99.9 MHZ to 99.7 MHZ.
