An act of vandalism at a Coromandel radio station has cut part of its transmission.
In a social media post, Coromandel's CFM said someone forcibly entered one of their radio sites yesterday.
"At 12:36 today someone forcibly entered one of our radio sites by cutting through a chain and cut through cables taking part of our transmission off air. Apologies to Whangamata/Onemana and Opoutere who were impacted by this act of vandalism," the post read.
"Your actions have cost your local radio station thousands of dollars by damaging special cables that are expensive to repair and replace. We are a community station that focuses on promoting community events and wonder what motivates people to do such things?
