Alejandro Petrecca and Claudio García arrived at Joint Antarctic Base Esperanza to perform maintenance on the LRA1 Transmitter Plant. They discovered a burned output stage of the Collins HF 80 transmitter used for LRA 36 programs and missing tower sections for the shortwave antenna and audio console. The broadcast halted after the departure of Juan Benavente, who was unfairly recalled, leaving the radio in unqualified hands. There are concerns about incompetence causing the transmitter fire. Petrecca and García are working on local coverage with an FM antenna, awaiting a new Studio Console. The plea is for Juan Benavente to return promptly to sustain the radio until the arrival of the new transmitter. Despite the challenges, they aim to resume LRA 36 shortwave broadcasts by the end of February.
