Radio Pulpit requests language mix change

It is proposing an increase of English and Afrikaans in its programme schedule, which will lead to a language mix of approximately a third of the programme schedule allocated to English, African languages and Afrikaans respectively.

Going for 30 years, Dr Roelf Petersen, MD of Radio Pulpit/Cape Pulpit believes the changes in the language mix will enable listeners to listen for longer in a language that they understand. Research has shown that listeners from all South African language groups switch to other stations when Radio Pulpit broadcasts in languages that only a small minority of listeners in its reception area can understand.
