In this series of three articles, we have beer. rela ting the views
of nine outstanding collectors of ,'3Le--on why they seek verifications
and now they haadle them. In this concluding article we finish the
rund own:

MinLIN "I don't know how many - .15Ls I have. I count by station.
I have from 35 .-
.1 atations in 212 countries. I have a number of ...1).3Le
also from the same station; for example, I try to 3et each one issued by
iiC.1 5.
also, I really have two collections--( 1) 3Ls from all countries, and
(2) ,5Ls from religious broadcasters which are duplicated in 11o. 1 for the
most part.
sPecial ties : (A) Pennants—from 21 stations in e5 codn tries.
(P) Latin America, and (:) Religious broadcasters.
that cart do 1. ,51s 'lay in my DI life? I have them organized in such a
1

way that Its easy to find what I'm lookinz for. rhey re in 21 looseleaf
note books by cortinent. If I want to see an African :,SL, I look in my black
note book (sorry, South Africa: ) where countries are arranged alphabetically.
I refer to the QSLs occastonally as well as show them to others once
in awhile. L -ndoubtedly, be showing some of them to our new minis ter as
he scent a summer wi th t'ICJC and te interested in radio as a missionary
outreach.
'jnfortuna tely, I don't have all ny verifications In books yet. In the
books I also have postal cards, photos and stamps I have received from
station pe rsonnel. :qe pennants are in seiarate books.
If we were to leave Rillsdale, there 's no flues tion bu t what I'd take
my ;1Le al onz. :he 31.11y .:,rahact :enter at Idhea ton Jolleze. IllInois, has
expressed interest in my religious collection; therefore, when no lonerI
have a need for it, It will go there. :enter personnel even eues ted that
I might donate it before death 30 that I might see how It was :sed there.
I've made no arrangement for my zeneral collection. :here's more work
that needs to be done , on both. I don't know whether I'll set it lone before
I retire or not—as 1. don't know when I' ll retire.
I also have ;SLx from 325 1M stations In 29 countries."

JC : "As far as C)SIs o, they remain dear to my heart at all times.

serves as encourar-ement to get the next one.

It goes without sayins. that Sierry L'exter is the foremost at the ma ti va tioni
I CIL rame. r.:e. continually ^emcee rs away on a regular tests. Por me, It Is not

Paget
• My Q3Ls are oreanized in notebooks, put into clear 'cages to allow
viawinz of both sides. : have a book for each continent and then separate
books for each latin country, as that remains my main area of concentration.
I look at my QSLs neriodically throughout a year. They brine back fond
memories of how and when I finally heard that station. More than any
Particular, they remind me of when I heard a station.
I sometimes look at them when I need a pick-me-up in a down period of
the hobby. Sometimes I look at them to get me started on follow -uns once
again. But they still remain a friendly reminder of my involvement in
different stages of this hobby. It is interesting to look at my ZSLe and
think of the early lays when I scratched out some details in English to a
station, and then, after so many years, think of the many renorts and things
I sent out to a latin, only to finally receive a verification letter after
two or three more years.
I suopose the main ooint here is that :,SLs, perhaps more than anything
else in this hobby, are and remain a oersonal achievement. A personal
reminder. An incentive to do more. Plus, a SL collection serves as an
enticement to continue during periods of inactivity in the hobby.
A number of people have seen my collection, but I do not make it it uttnt,
to bring it to conventions or oPenly talk about it. again, It remains
personal to me.
that would I lo with it? dell, I hone that my son gets involved in
DXing someday and I might be able to pass it along to him as a reminder of
earlier stations and times, a kind of historical oersoective of the radio
scene.
But more than anything, I'm glad that I have it to look back upon.
It serves as a record of my DI involvement. Logs and tamed :Ds are
nice, but nothinz takes the olace of that card, or letter and hand painted
oennant from Radio Andina. ZSIs are the Icing on the cake, and they taste
very, very sweet to this =fr."

JOHN CiMPBELL: "Yes, QSLs come out for recollection or discussion, usually
with friends interested in DX or asnects -of radio and communications. This
doesn't happen very often at present ;due to my workload), but maybe things
will be more relaxed in another 20 years or so.
To helo recollections of reception etc. and the ,articular nleasure
they give, I store ';',3Ls in albums sold in Surone to hold first-day covers
in frequency order; it helps me remember the sources of R. which have made
the DX receptions difficult.
?or disposal of :biLs via a will, I'll try to find a good museum with
interests in collections devoted to radio. Best such examoles I've seen
so far are in Mew Zealand, out that's rather far away at present.
Total number of ZSLs must be about 1600, about 7 •Dt shortwave and the
rest mostly medium wave. I don't try to specialize but I seem to have quite
a few :131,s from Earouean SW pirates. Other areas where the collection is
well develooed are Indonesia and oolitical clandestines. Sore noint: I've
reported 6 nirates from outside Mann America out only three have
reolied. Corresoonding rate for European 'unofficial' stations is at least
96%."

MEJS: "The ZSI. collection....well, there is absolutely nothin

like adding a card or letter from a new country to it. Rezrettably, such
additions are few and very far apart. In the interim teriods, I try to add
to the collection by submitting reports to stations offering nul tide
designs for reporters (a la Cj3, Radio :Perlin International, Radio Dairo,etc
While this is not a zood substitute for a new country, it helos me to sustain
my interest in DX1ne.
ZSLs to me are not 'unwept, unhonored and unsung'--they, to me, are
important reminders of stations heard la the east--of the 2 1M 'rlse and
shine', of the 3:30 At fall asleeo time by the receiver: : can remember
studying in mid-winter while in high school and college) up the Brazilians,
of the high heat of a Bennsylvania summer while listening to Radio Iran,
or in early evening to an interference-free Voice of Turkey.•
I carefully preserve at :east one ',"SL mer country, sometimes more
depending on the rarity. Others are maintained to look at for the various
designs that are obtainable. Is for showing to others, that's an ezcention
rather than the rule, for I think it is only too true that the confirmations
mean more to you than to others (especially non-DXers:).
If : had to move, they would certainly accompany me. As far as throwing
out, they would be amonz the last things to go. Death? that's another
matter. Ive always wondered why the stamp collectors have been able to band
tozether, create vast reference collections and even establish national
libraries devoted to philatelic material, yet we DXers and 3WLs cannot
establish a oermanent home for .;Sis when's. person leaves the hobby or dies.

Some sort of a central, permanent repository snoald be established

aTZ;TS ON REPORTING 10 £24B STITIONS by Richard S. Wood

Zuckily, you may reoort to all stations in English. Even those countriell
which don't broadcast in English (e.z. the two Yemens) understand It aed
accent reports in I:. In fact, English is widely known tri both Yemens:
the P.D.R.Y. Is a former British possession, while m7 l!orth Yemeni
students here in Atha are among the best sneakers of Enzltsh.
- Stations in 112eria, Morocco, Dunisla and Lebanon may also te reporte
In ?Tench. but this does not seem to be necessary to obtain a :SI.
,- :be official Enmlist term for a reading from the Zur ian is a recitatia*
from the Iur ian. Do not refer to it as chanting and, of course, avoid
' negative terms like walling. Singing should be reserved for secular nutria.
- Refer to countries by their official names, e.g. Yemen arab Republic,
Peoole's Iemocratic Republic of Yemen, Kingdom of Saudi arable. 'owever,
tne name 'arab Reoublic of Egypt" Is not obligatory: recent Egyptian
costage stamps have dropoed it and rust say "Egylt". The Kingdom of Saudi
Aracla encoara,;es the use of the Initials K S A and uses them on most
stains. It frequently refers to itself as The Kingdom", rather than.
say, "Saadi Ararla" or "the country".
- sse the term Arabian Golf, not Persian Iulf. This is Particularly
imoortant in addressing nail to the smaller states In the area.
, Do not refer to those states as sheikhdoms. à DIer in :he TaDI bulletin
¡ refers to a large arab country as am "oil-rich sheikhdom". :f he says
' things like this in his reports, his success in OSing arab stations will
be limited. Arabic suut (rhymes with take, with the kh as in ch of
Scottish loon) means "old can" and is a title of respect, not of royalty
or oossession. Thus, Hemingway's story The Old Man and the Sea Is, In
arabic as-sheik-2 bahr, Mshelkha "sheikhdom" Is a very small
administra:ive unit only in Tunisia. :he heads of state of Kuwait. Zatar,
and each of the ".:nited arab Emirates are officially known in English as
Ruler . thus, "The Rular of Kuwait".
- International Reply :nupons do not seem to be known or understood In Arab
countries. Enclosing retarn postage ices not seem to te an important
factor. Postage from some arab countries is quite cheaP; e.g. a rerlis:ered
¡ airmail letter without wet -nt limit from Saudi arabia to the Is

As someone who loves all tynes of music, I have found my favorite

station to be Swaziland Zommere'al Radio ,S.C.3.;, with its nice selections
of Portuguese ballads, Hindustani type music and, of zourse, topular songs
in English. ?rom within the small African Kingdom of Swaziland zones a al e
signal directed to its listeners In South Lírica but which can often oe
enjoyed by us here in the States. The station has had a turbulent history
since It first went an the air from Sandlane, in Swaziland, back ln the
early oart of 19 7 2.
In the early years it was hard going for an independent station, but
Fhen Mr. :sale Kirsh became managing director and Kirsh Industries became
(nvolved, things looked brighter. New studios and offices were set ap in
tkinsion House, an Eloff acres% in Johannesburg, South Africa. ...Infortunately,
he station still aas oroblems acquiring advertisere and of establishing a
r
pleanly defined listening oublie. It was not until 1975 that both of these
problema began to be solved. Por that was the year that saw the start of
both the Indian and Portumusee Services. There was a real need for oro -
ramming to these groups in douth Africa and the tusinees community saw
tle' wisdom of using SCR to reach these ueople with ads for their products.
i the Portuguese Service is Radio Paralelo 2, , named for the fact that
the station 13 located on the 27 th tarsi:lei. There are many ernes from
Angola and Mozambique who have become regular listeners to this service
'KAMA since it started operation on Lori 3, 19 - 5. today the format :a still
1.4111.010 Portuguese arocramming, with nice music and ads, brought to the listeners
, by such announcers as Eugenia Marla and Sampaio e Silva, both formerly
with Radio Clubs of Mozambique. This service was first noted by me In
August, 1962, on 6155 kHz., beginning their program at 0500 ;MT, with
,
beautiful Portuguese ballade and several IDe for "Radio Paralelo
I 71 otee se te ".

the Indian Service is Radio rruro, named after the S.S.Truro,
which in November 1560 transported the first indentured Indian workers
¡ -
wit re to Natal (South Africa) from India. In late March of 1976 test
tranemissions were made and Radio truce started regular trogremming on
ir ki Ft t may 9, 1976. today the programs of erotic sounding Indian music are
NI taped at the Durban (South Africa) studio (which was opened in March
' of 1981) by such announcers as Euty Mohamed, Safee Siddiqi, Sunny
Hoodhram and Goolam Madam. Radio Truro Is not often noted here in
Southern California but did hear it in Pehruary 1983,
on 9704 kHz,
from about 1530 to 1630 GMT, with English language announcements and
Hindustani music. More recently, in :urn 1923, I've noted them on
6155 kHz from 0300 to oast De25 DST but receotion was under dRNO.
(les note: Ron adds that since that report, they are in the clear
, on 6155 at, from 0255 s/on, with 411N0 off that frequency).
1 In 1 977 another group, the urban black, was targeted for inclusion
'oto the station's ever increasing audience. Radio SR shook the airwaves
'
,or the first time on August 28, 1977. the format today is DOO songs
ín English and a variety of ads, treeented by such far-out CJ's as
Iocky I'lhotlhalemaje (a.k.a. Cocky two-lull), Lucky Ntull and Mesh
petla. Raving listened to Radio SR more than any other service t can
noised say they make it a pleasure to listen to this station. Prom 1981
:trough 1982, : often noted them on 6155 kHz. from 2300 to 0500 (that
08 when WRII0 or Portugal were not tresent) with their pop music, ads and
Pany ID's as "Radio SR, the International Sound", but SCR now has
1adio Truro here at the time. Recently the only olace I note Radio SR
on 9704 kHz at 1630 0MT with the usual IS of African music and
'oto programming of pop music, but the receptian was 000r. with this
scent change in the schedule of SCR's different services, it would be
;ood to check out all their frequencies at different tisse to gee what
ilght be noted.
SCR also reaches out to the Jewish community In South Africa via
its show called the Jewish Sound, which is troduced and 'resented by
babbi Raley 0oldman.
1 All of SCR' e services are transmitted from Sandlane, located near
:he southern border of Swaziland, ria three transmitters: a Harris
0(:) kW and a CC& 10 kW for shortwave and a 50 id Continental 3I7C
or KW.
Por those of us in the shortwave listening zommunity, :he most
mportant person at the station is Mr. William bobeen, the chief
Engineer and answerer of our reception reports. He sends out a nice,

O all data post nerd ISL with a zolor photo of a "Swazi Warrior". It
ust seem 111ce a full time job :wet sending out these cards for the
,Ifferent services. 2111 is an American who learned about electronics
Kth the U.S. Air ?ores and at Carnegie Institute of Decnnology (à2E2)
a Pitteburgh, PA. is informs that they broadcast 'by taco (REV= 17'')
RE VOX 177's)" made at the studios in South Africa and the "transmitters
.re in Swaziland (in the bugbear. In September 1982 he says they were
'n 1377, 3223, 49.30, 5155 and 970 4 kHz. ¡that with the recent schedule
'hangse for their eirvicee, why not give them a try and see if you can
staist us in confirming their new schedule? You might just find, as
i lid, that SCR is a fun station to :Ister. ta.
I wish to thank Kr. 2oolcson for sending me a copy of 'Music Notes"
'rom which I derived most of the information in this article and thanks

iREV0LUCI6N 0 MUERTE, VENCEREMOS by Steve Reinstein

"Revolution or death we will conquer" are words that should not be taken in
a glib manner. These defiant words have probably been uttered by many revo-
lutionaries throughout history. :et, never have they stood so boldly true as
they do today. El Salvador. El Salvador, a densely populated nation of
4.8 million, has staggered through four trying years of violence, terror, &
murder! The bloody civil war has claimed upwards of 30,000 lives and, as yet,
there is no end '.11 sight. As happens in this day and age, guerrilla revolu-
tion and counterrevolution is invariably accompanied by a staunch platform of
political rhetoric via clandestine radio broadcasting. It is in this light
that we take a closer look at developments in the El Salvador underground.

Since the revolir:ion in El Salvador began in the late 1970s, there have been
several rebel shortwave radio stations on the air. These include! Radio Lib-
eraci6n, Radio Venceremos, Radio Farabundo Martí, Radio Unidad, and Radio
Guazapa. All of ::hese station have 'flown' generally under the banner of the
FMLN - frente Farabundo Marti para Liberaci6n Nacional (Farabundo Martí front
for National LiMration).

The FMLN is a large umbrella organization that encompasses combatants from

the five major Marxist groups in El Salvador. Their name is derived from the
martyred communist leader, Farabundo Martí, who led a short-lived peasant
uprising in .-anuary 1932. Martí was captured by govt. forces ana shot by a
firing squad. The rebellion was crushed and thousands were massacred. Little
did he dream that half a century later his country would be literally torn
apart by a revolution in his memory! While the FUN is essentially a military
guerrilla organization, the other half of the Salvadoran Left is represented
by the FDR - Frente Domocr4tico Revolucionario (Democratic Revolutionary
Front), The Frr- rs a political ally of the FUN and serves as the political
arm of 14 leftist par-:ies and groups. Leading the FDR is a former Social Dem-
ocrat, Guillermo Manuel Lingo. Ironically, Lingo ran as the vice-presidential
running mate of Jo s6 Napoleon Duarte in 1972. Duarte won the election but the
military falsified the voter tabulations to keep him from taking office, In
1979 lingo served on the ruling civilian-military junta but resigned in 1980
to work with the ?DR. (The original FDR leader was Enrique Alvarez Cordova,
assassinated in December 1980). Duarte later became President of the ruling
junta, while Ungo went into exile in Panama to oppose Duarte's regime. The
current (interim) President of El Salvador is Alvaro Magaña.

In December 1980 ::he first FN station appeared on shortwave. The short-

lived Radio Liberaci6r broadcast on 8243 kHz and claimed to be located near
battlefronts in E: Salvador. Popular opinion, at the time, suspected Radio
Liberación to actually be located in Chinandega Province, Nicaragua. In Feb.
1981, R. Liberaci6n ceased broadcasting but was quickly replaced by a new
FMLN station, Radio Venceremos. Radio Venceremos "the official voice of the
FMLN" is generally assumed to sometimes be actually broadcasting from the
Morazàn Department: of El Salvador. It is suspected that at least one transmi-
tter is located at. a Large FN complex, south of Managua, while repeaters
are used in the field. The easily heard Radio Venceremos often changes freq-
uencies and schedule, to avoid jamming and direction finding techniques, so
be sure to check other sections of FRENDX for more current information. Radio
Venceremos claims to have begun operation on medium wave mn 1/22/80 under the
name Radio Revolucionaria del Pueblo. Since March 1982 their transmissions' on
shortwave have been severely interfered with. They claim that U.S. vessels
patrolling the Gulf of Fonseca have persisted in a plan to disrupt the FN
broadcasts (see the cover of the April 1983 RIB, #75 for the latest). Despite

Although the FMLN oversees the activities of the rebel groups and attempts to
keep them unified, these groups have diverse political ambitions and often
run into conflict with one another.

The largest and most radical of the guerrilla groups comprising the FMLN is
the FPL - Fuerzas Populares de Liberaci6n (Popular Liberation Forces). The
FPL was founded in 1969 by Silv=ao=yetano Carpio after he split with the
Salvadoran Communist Party over ideological differences. The 63 year old
Cayetano. usually known by his nom-de-guerre 'Márcial', has often been re-
ferred to as the 'grand old man" of the revolution. Throughout the civil war
the FPL has been very active battling govt. troops in Chalatenango Department
and other areas. In January 1982 the FPL introduced their own clandestine
radio station in the form of Radio Farabundo Marti. They carefully timed
their broadcasts to follow the sign-off of Radio Venceremos, so as not to
appear as competition. The sporadic R. Farabundo Martí has been jammed merci-
lessly by the "music' jammer, probably because their Marxist doctrine is far
more radical than even the FMLNI In April 1983 the FPL was dealt a severe and
damaging setback when their second-in-command Melida Anaya Montez, usually
known on-the-air by her pseudonym 'Comandante Ana Marra', was assassinated by
fellow FPL members. Shortly thereafter FPL leader Gayetano, despondent over
the death of Ana Marra, reportedly committed suicide. The FPL is now headed
by 'Salvador Guerra' (an obvious pseudonym).

The second largest guerrilla force in the FMLN is the ERP - Ejrcito Revolu-
cionario del Pueblo (Revolutionary Army of the People). The ERP. formed
a dispute —Witn7— nyetano's ?PL, is commanded by 31 year old Joaqurn Villa-
lobos. The ERP is said to operate mainly in Morazén since the outbreak of the
civil war.

The third largest guerrilla force in the FMLN is the FARN - Fuerzas Armadas
de Resistencia Nacional (Armed Forces of National Resistance). FARN.
nrmed in 197S inêir— g- dispute within the ERP, is commanded by the Costa Rica
born Eduardo Sancho Caste-Leda, known better by his nom-de-guerre Fermín Cien-
fuegos. The FARM is said to operate widely in Guscatlin Department, especial-
ly around the Guazapa volcano. This leads to speculation that the FARN is be-
hind the latest anti-junta radio station to hit the airwaves. Radio Guazapa
"La Voz de Cuscatlén" appeared in March 1983 varying between 98 20 -9850 kHz at
*0130, and also announcing a *1830 broadcast.

The fourth guerrilla group in the FMLN is the Salvadoran Communist Party it-
self. A relative newcomer to the fighting, the Party finally joined in the
fray in 1979 with a small group of guerrillas known as the FAL - Fuerzas
Armadas de Liberacign (Armed Forces of Liberation). The Salvadoran Communist
Party is —red777=Fitary general (since 1972) Shafick Jorge Handal, son of
Palestinian immigrants. Handal is said to have ties to Palestine Liberation
Organization terrorist Yasser Arafat, and is active in the purchase of arms
for the FMLN.

The last of the major Marxist groups comprising the FMLN is also the most
furtive and least known organization. The FRIC - Partido Revolucionario de
los Trabajadores Centroamericanos (Central American Workers' Revolutionary
Party) was formed in 1975 by the secretive Roberto Roca. It is speculated
that Roca's ?RTC is responsible for guerrilla activity in the swampy south-
eastern Usulutgn Department. Roca is believed to side with Guillermo Ungo
of the FDR in believing that a negociated settlement for peace in Si Salva-
dor is a necessity in order to avoid massive intervention by U.S. military
forces.

The last of the FMLN clandestine radio stations is/was Radio Unidad, a sta-
tion that very little is known about. To my knowledge Radio Unidad has never
been positively reported by North American :Jens. The BBC Monitoring Service
came out with several reports that Radio Unidad was heard in January 1982 on
7000 kHz, claiming to be broadcasting from Usulutgn. It was never ascertained
as to whether R. Unidad was a legitimate FMLN station, or perhaps a disinfor-
mationtransmission from an anti-FMLN source. In 1982 there were some interes-
ting reports of a station called R. Orientacign or Reorientacien, which sur-
faced briefly to confuse listeners of R. Venceremcel...And there you have it,
the current clandestine scene in El Salvador. I've thrown all these names at
you, the readers, not to confuse you but to hopefully help you in listening
to the amazing world of clandestine radio. So, as they say on R. Venceremos.

This »nth ve concUlde irith a letter free Lin G. Robertson, who gives hie vier of sene
recurt developments red comments in Prelates

Dear Ye Ed:

I've been an avid SWL/DX'er since 1967, a member of

NASWA since 1980, ard a Ham (K.A6MPU) since 1981. Please also
keep in mind (as you read this) that : am writing it as a
semi-regular CONTRIBUTOR to the logs; such have I tried to
be ever since - Toinn- gASWA. Most always, the club's member-
ship has brought me a lot of enjoyment in the hobby. But of
late several developments have convinced me that my money
and time would be a lot better spent somewhere else:
The first development that really shook me up was this
buisiness that "qn ,3 don't prove anything other than the
person wrcms to the station." ROT. It has 'peen my experience that
the total error factor in my collection of over 200 qsl's is
around only 5e,
7CTAL. It has been my experience that stations
generally are VE17-7-onsciencious about verifying, and that
mistakes are somewhat rare. It seems to me that this attitude
has been fostered by a few elitist DX'ers with an egomania
problem whc just are'nt going to let anybody else have any
fun if they can have anything to say about it. And anyway, if
the lendershf.n really thinks this way, WRY IN BLOODY EECKFIRE
DO WE HAVE AN AWERDS PROGRAM, Ayrway? tattler quit being a
bunch of nyoocrites and dumb the awards program, or just shut
un and quft - TF=Faverbody elses's enjoyment:

Page 7
 The second developement that threw me was this buis miens
of contributing; your editorial in the March issue was throughly
repugnant and highly offensive in tone. If your object was to
promote discussion and contribution, there are a lot better
ways to do it than insult and deride the membership into action.
Speaking_u_ a contributor, the whole thing turned me off so
badly that I just may not contribute another thing at all. I
know for sure that if I was a beginner and read that article,
I'd never want anything more to do with NASWA at all.As a
matter of fact, I rather agree with Kathleen Eaves and Richard
Tutt as they expressed themselves in the last issue--except that
I may not wait for my subscription to expire, I may resign if
I don't cool down first!
Finally, let's have no more comments about how 'easy' a
dx catch was for the person who logged it; I an speaking of
such things that appear from time to time in the ER sections,
such as, " station XYZ hrd 1200-1400: really an easy
catch now." Public ego trips like this only serve to denigrate
the beginner's feelings should HE have made the same logging;
remember, one man's easy catch is another man's DX. Let's have
some mercy on the new kids, O.K.? *
In conclusion, it seems to me that NASWA has gone from
being a bastion of unity and friendship to a strutting and
preening ground for a few little tin DX gods, and I don't like
it one bit; in any case, I hcpe somebody in the organization
sees fit to pull up the leash on this kind of thing, and
fast, too, or you're going to find yourself about $33, 000 short
next year. "Unity and Friendship" supposedly is the motto;
egocentric posturing can only divide the membership and
contribute to.MASWA's downfall.
Thanks for the opportunity to let ma blow off mz mouth.

Yours in Considerable Choler,

Lin Robertson/KA6MPU

;IND NOW A WORD FROM aexr....

John has left me a little room and I want to add my congratulations to
Steve on his engagement: Omigosh, first Tom, now Steve... .Stu?

Mr. Robertson's comments were most Intereeting. Indeed, all the responses
to John's editorial were equally fascinating, giving me cause to think....
which, if you haven't guessed, is the reason "It Sounds To Me" exists. For
those of you who were offended by John's remarks 1 I'm sorry. ?or those who
found the incentive to report and contribute, we re hanny to have you:

If Mr. Robertson will forgive the rumination, I can assu re him that "'Jnitv
and Friendship" is alive and well, though clearly taking a beating these
past few years. It's true, some take the hobby more sert ously than others.
Some will rise virtually every morning for a shot at Rad to Pampas In Peru,
and for others it may mean an occasional listen to Deuts che Welle and a
quick glance at PRENDX. We need everybody, but not just for financial
solvency.

Yet, it's not that wide range of experience and Interest levels that noses
a threat to NASWA. It's the petty bickering, the back stabbing, the Ralph
Jensen's, the threats of legal action, the bogus "National union of Radio
DXers", editors trying to get the "last word" ad nauseum. :f you haven t
gotten the point, it's that tedious, on-going nonsense that is the hobby's
least attractive feature.

I'm finding the continued attacks on serious DIers equally nuzzling. I've
learned an awful lot from these folks and they continually contribute and
support IISWA, even when it no longer is their single best source of DX
information. Let's relax a little and enjoy ourselves... .and send a card
of thanks to Bill Oliver for doing a job that usually goes without thanks.

Sorry, JJ '01 buddy, for encroaching on your domain. I suonoee if : had a

radio program or bulletin to nromote I could've used the snace more
judiciously, hi. .

JUNE 1983 ******* ********* ******* ****** *****

Just a small announcement at this time to advise Technical Topics readers I

will relinquish editorship of this section after the July issue of FOX.
Having worked at it for a year and one half, : am finding it more difficult
to devote the time necessary. For the many correspendents, am very pleased
to try and help where asked. Those who have become regulars in their ex-
changes with me are invited to continue. The experience has been rewarding,
as all editorships with FRENDX are. I could suggest to Bill nominations for
a successor, but I :now he has many things to consider. - -Ed C. Shaw - -

PART II - The Active Loop Antenna.

Last month we constructed the loop itself, BUT, as some of you have noted. I
did not mention how the variable capacitor is affixed. Hah! This has to do
with continuing construction on the amplifier, which we will discuss here.

The FET amplifier used here is a push-pull design allowing for ample increase
in gain and quiet response. All the small parts are readily available, and
actual construction should be easy for the modest hobbyist.

Construction -layout on a small-piece of perforated board may follow exactly

the schematic diagram provided here. Wires may cross over each other, pro-
vided they are insulated and not actually touching. Note that there are two
points for entry of the signal from the antenna loop, frnd two points for
hooking to your rece:.ver antenna/ground terminals. There are also two points
for powering the unit, which we will take up next month.
Parts List: 2- :!ET 233819 (or similar) The amp draws 13.5 mA
1- 2n2222 transistor with a 12V power supply
2- 4.7K resistors using .162 watts. It will
1- :1( resistor work fine with a common
1- 2.2K resistor 9V battery, too.
1- 100uF/25V electrolytic capacitor

********************** ****** * ********* *************** ****** * ***** ************

Next month we will complete the unit by constructing a power supply for it.
In the meanwhile, you can use a 9V battery, or a wall transformer for 12V.
WANTED: Programs in basic, particularly for the 7/C-20 computer, that are
useful in pursuits of short wave listening and DXing. Perhaps some member
has constructed a loggings program they would be willing to share.

CAR HEADLIGHT REMINDER: While this has no relationship to shortwave, it is
useful for the tinkering hobbyist. The time and slight expense wasted on
a drained car battery could be better devoted to °Xing...justification. You
need merely a small 12V buzzer. Wire it in to your headlight switch, one
lead to low-beam wire, the other lead to the oil pressure switch on the
engine block. When the car is running, headlights ON, the pressure switch
is open. .no buzz. Turn off the engine, no pressure, switch closes, buzzer
sounds reminding you the headlights are being powered. Turn off lights also
cuts power to buzzer. Voila. And GM wants$27.00 for such a gadget installed.
************ * ************************* ************** ***** ******************

LETTERS FROM READERS This is not likely to be a continuing feature, but

the subject matter is interesting enough that many may have the same prob-
lems and can benefit from the suggestions I give, if any.

New York: " I own a DX-302, and use a longwire antenna. Within two miles
are 10 50KW AM, and 20 100KW FM stations. I have images all over the en-
tire spectrum. What can I do? " Good grief! Let's assume that all the
stations have met their FCC obligations to suppress images. The remaining
problem MUST lie within the less-than-desirable circuitry of the DX-302.
Reduce the length of your antenna dramatically...only a few feet, say 10.
Then construct a series-type antenna tuner. This will resonate your short
antenna sharply, only for the band of frequencies you listen to on short
wave. Alas, if the problem IS at the transmitter, it could be that the sig-
nals come in on such unsuspect things as your power line.

New York: "My R-70 is everything I ever wanted. However, I note that the
digital display 'pops' unexplainably and it doesn't seem to have anything
to do with band- changes eir-biée-diglte-1.-strpe-up er -down- in frequency. Do
I have a defective receiver?" Not likely. The 'pops' you noted probably
are dueto the switching, inherent in the gas-discharge segments of the
readout. Notice that, for instance that the digit 1 is comprised of two
lighted segments. If you tune down, the next digit to light would be zero,
comprised of 3ix lighted segments... .that is, a sudden increase of four
more. If you went from zero to 1 again, the additional four segments would
just as suddenly extinguish. Such switching does cause pops. Better buf-
fering would alleviate or eliminate this minor nuisance, but it doesn't
create any problems. I noticed it too, but it doesn't bother me.

WANTED: Reader experiences on how to modify different receivers to employ

existing SSS filters to narrow the AM passband. Information on the new
rash of Kenvood, Icom, Panasonic. Sony receivers particularly desired.

WHICH WAY TO PUT THE BATTERIES IN? . Sooner or later we all do it insert
the batteries incorrectly. It usually
means soon dead batteries, corroded terminals, and maybe damaged circuits.

By inserting the 4-diode gadget shown here, it will make no difference

which way you insert the batteries.., polarity will come out correctly for
use by your instrument. The four diodes should cost about $1.00 for 10 at
Radio Shack. .Note the band around one end of a diode indicates the posi-
tive (+) end. You probably can also buy a ready-made bridge for about $1,
and it's small enough to tuck away in some inner recess where it can't be
seen. *** ******* ********* ********** **********

 Update on RA xmtr sites: Delwin. Final stage of $10 million restoration now in progress.
First work completed was rebuilding 301 9 log periodic in 1979. Second one at 340 9 salvaged '
in 1981, but since dismantled to allow conscription of new curtains. First stage of general
works completed Nov 81 w/repair of submarine power cables across Darwin Harbour, and re-
establishment of power supply. By June 1982, bldgs restored w/addl cyclone protexion and
harbour jetty rebuilt. Final stage, costing $3.8 million, involves erexion of seven TCI-611
curtain antennas. Work already started on foundations, and 8 masts should be in place be-
fore July. Ants will then be hung progressively during remainder of dry season. After test
ing, stn should be ready for use in Late 1983 or early 84 w/original three 1969 Collins 250
kW xmtrs, and possibly one addl unit, IBA later.
ShelapaItie, In 1982/83 budget, $1.1 million was provided for purchase of four 100 kW
xmtrs. Two are currently being installed and tested, while others due later this year. Stn
also has two 1975 Harris 100 kW, three RCA 50s, and two S'I'C 10 kW. One of the 50s was pur-
chased in 1956, other two rebuilt in 1969/70 from original 1944 zmtrs. These are in excel-
lent condition, no plan to replace them. Ant farm comprises 31 one-band curtains and three
rhombics. From 1984, stn'll mainly carry pyre to Pac, NZ, NAm, Eu (long path) and possibly
some domestic services.
Otte' silea. For 198 3 /84, Dept of Comms'll be seeking from Parliament at least $4 million
for other works, involving Carnarvon and Perth (Western Australia), Alice Springs, Tennant
Creek and Katherine (Northern Territory), as well as possibly some east coast sites. The
Carnarvon project includes purchase of an addl 250 kW. ST sites intended for short range

Sort'ng out the Central Americans The three Costa Rican USB xmtrs are apparently shared by

0336* 21/4 (Ernie Bear, Ont, 9/5) Above comments partly based on media reports that 3 of the
xmtrs are in Costa Rica. However, at 0500 13/5, at least III diff xmtrs operating simultan-
eously: R 15 de Sept on 7000, 6900, 6200 4 5565; LV de Sandino on 6220 to 0507*, & LV de Ric

All 4 xmtrs of R 15 de Sept are probably in Honduras, also used by R Miskus & posàibly LV de

Comandante Juan Carlos. It seems that J.C. is actually the nom-de-guerre of Pedro Ortega, a
wealthy Nic businessman who prospered during Somoza years. He now commands anti-Sand exile
group Ejército Nacional de Liberación. ENL is made up of Somocistas in. Honduras. Early 198
2 it was thot there might be merger of ENL with Unión Democrática Nicaragilense, headed by
the Chamorro bros. (both former Sandinista commanders). Proposed merger seemed to fall thru
because UDN leadership still felt too such animosity to ENL Somocistas. UDN later merged w/
15 de Septiembre group to form Fuerza Democrática NicaragUense coalition. Not known yet whe-
ther LV de la Lib has awn xmtr or shares time w/R15. Recent Miami Herald articles hint at
possible wide-based anti-Sand coalition, combining Rond groups w/ARDE/FRS/MDN people in CR!

Greetings to one and all. Welcome to another edition of Scoreboard. This tine we feature
Europe in the Spotlight. C/H countries heard and O/V countries verified. Remember that

The next deadline will be 15 August for the September FEE= and the spotlight will be on
North America. Thanks to all who contributed this month. You must update at least once
a year to remain listed in Scoreboard. If your name does not appear this month, it is because
you have not updated your totals in more than a year.

SUMMER DAZE: A quiet issue this time and with all of the bad weather conditions being
reported on the TV, I'm not surprised. The center of my thoughts these days is the new house
we've just bought and the thought of an outdoor antenna for the first time since 1970! It's
easy to get away from radio for the summer and very tempting, too. But don't do it. There's
lots of good stuff to be heard and with a little patience you'll be able to hear it. Summer
doesn't have to be a radio vacation!

BOLIVIA R. Padilla, 3480a, in SP 0158-0206 here in much 01,

814 and noise with M angler and SP
vocals by N. Very poor on 5-9 and no ID noted. (Moritz, OR)...R. Abaroa, 4720, in SP 0100-
17 and 0145-55 noted weakly with folk vocals and M anncr between. At 0145 recheck much
stronger and clearer and again with nice folk vocals by W with M Inner although still no ID.
Presumed the one here therefore. (Moritz, OR 5-9)
BRAZIL R. Liberal, 3325, in PT 0300-06 noted here again with clear ID on 5-6 by M with full
nor SW and MW operation, including frequencies. Into vocal tune. Best during 0250-0305

PT 2143-55 here with sports match and excited M anncr. Inconfidencia spit out by him 2145.
Very strong though some slop from unidentified broadcaster. // 6000 at 2230 recheck but QRM
worse by then. (Moritz, OR 5-8)
COLOMBIA LV de Huila, 6150, in SP 0505-15 here with good signals on 5-15 with ads, a number

Inca del Peru and played a short uptempo version of Happy Birthday in EG 0502. More local
ma after 0500 v/ ID/TCs scattered around to 0600 NA and full ID information. Vy high local
noise helped keep details to a minimum but fairly strong signal nevertheless. Later monitor-
ing indicates SW call is OB 4W, 4762 kHz and MW freq possibly 1260 or 1270 kH z . (Dan Sheedy,
CA).++nicely done and I think you heard enough details ON. tba+++R. Madre de Dios, 4950,

in until 0236 when into impassioned and screaming talk by him. Very fast SP vocal 0420 and
a couple more tune, then W on tape briefly and M anncr back after carrying on. Mention of
Tarapoto by him 0255. (Moritz, OR)
SWAZILAND T. Truro (SCR), 6155, in lang *0255-0500. On with African ma IS, 0300 into prgm

VENEZUELA R. Rumbos, 9660, in SP 2157-2201* 14 in SP noted briefly and into Venezuelan-na-
tional anthem and plug. Schedule change or just Sundays? (Moritz, OH 5-8)

***Ininvesinsalnw****evsnsak*************
Last time we'd just started into John Herkimer's survey of Venezuelan b'casting activity.
Rather than try to pick up where ve left off, I think that we'll print the beginning as
well so that non-Mid-Monthers can have a full survey, too.

Sunday evenings; can be well worth a listen and sometimes even does prgms of things
like authentic delat blues and such. toe)

we'll continue with this next time. As used above, the abbreviacion'v/s" means verification
signature, teat is, the person signing the QSL card of verification. The listings at the
outset of each entry are the city and etate of the station. As you'll see next time, these
are important in working toward the NASWA award for Venezuelan DX.

About all from here for now. Am still looking for scan reporters. If you're interested
drop ma a note. Tnx.

Editorial....Editorial....Editorial....Editorial....Editorial....Editorial....Editorial....

I'm fairly certain that when the compiler of another FrenDX column last month chose to
cast aspersions at both my profession and myself, it was done with the expectation that
I'd roar, in print, like a lion that's just been bitten by a gnat, and thus continue the
kind of childish drivel that we've seen all too often in the past; I'm afraid that I'm
going to be a disappointment. When staff disagree, they have private channels to gain
redress at their disposal, and that is the course I shall take. One of the cardinal
unwritten rules of this magazine is that you do NOT take pot shots at people in print,
certainly not others on the staff; I find such things repugnant and unethical, and regret
that my sentiments are not shared by the entire staff of FrenDX.

However, lest any of you get the wrong impression of the profession due to someone else's
misconceptions, let me simply state, as a chemist, that chemists do not want things
packaged away in little phials; all that chemists, scientists, clear-thinking people in
general really want is ta have things presented in a clear, straightforward, logical
manner. That is what I have tried to do with this column, and that is what all true
editors should strive for. Back next month, till then 3's &

sounds in Yugoslavia where American pop main is hrd on the radio, in the streets
and in record shops where Western albums are nlentifnl. Italy was characterized
by the constant roar of disco over the small local FM stations, and in West Germ-
any there was a mix of Wagner, US and Ug pop/new wave and ionpah music. On the
AM dial, near the Seat Germany border, every FRG station was covered by a
(deliberate?) het from an eastern station on the same frequency. While GDR AN
