To Anonymous:
How can you say that Thaalam FM is a 100% LTTE channel???
Do you know the meaning of the name "Thaalam" ??
Thaalam has something to do with music - Thaalam means rythm in some way.
If you listen to their news, they base their source on international news bureaus like Reuters etc.
Listen to their programmes, and you will see that they are not supporting anyone.
They both says negative and positive news about LTTE, if there is something to say. A 100% LTTE channel wouldn't do that.
So think twice before you write in here with your unproved talks!
Dear anonymous friend, who has written this:

NETH Sri Lanka is not NETH FM from Sri Lanka.
NETH Sri Lanka is a Sinhala TV-station from Italy, which is telecasting 24 H a day on Hotbird satellite.
I don't know if NETH Sri Lanka TV has something to do with NETH FM from Sri Lanka.
Does anyone know what NETH means?
On Hotbird satellite you can get following Tamil/Sinhala channels:
TV:
1. TTN Tamil TV (from Paris).
2. Deepam TV (from London).
3. DAN Tamil Ozhi (from Paris).
4. Cee(I)TV Tamil (from London).
5. Sun TV
6. KTV
7. NETH Sri Lanka
8. Pavana TV from Middle East (1 hour Sinhala programme on DAN Tamil Ozhi).
Radio:
1. IBC Tamil Radio (from London).
2. TRT Tamil Alai (from Paris).
3. London Tamil Radio
4. European Tamil Radio (from Germany).
5. Thaalam FM (from Sri Lanka).
6. Suryan FM (from India).
7. Tamil International Radio (by EPDP)
8. TBC London (run by Karuna Group supporters).
SIYATHA FM and SIYATHA TV are belongs to Sangeetha weerarathne's husband and some other friedns of him. They have more 4 tv licence to launch different televisions.
also Last year 2005 Isura Fm tried to telecast this channel through them. those days they shutdown there service after 6.00 pm. then they looked to hire the frequency.
As I know first owner of Isura Fm was Mahinda Ramanayake. Now he is the owner of max. Am I correct.
