Project | Solar Power for isolated FM Station
History: Three years ago we were involved with reestablishing a small FM station in an isolated Andes mountain location. The local NAZA evangelical church had taken over the station. (There are 200,000 speakers of the NAZA language in Colombia.) They had special prayer meetings for the radio station. This group is very responsible and a joy to collaborate with.
The need: The electrical power is very unstable and unreliable. Sometimes off for several hours or days. The only efficient alternative is solar power. They have obtained a quote from a company in Medellin for $7,100.00 that includes installation.
