Got no response in here after asking for info on VoK. So here's what

I
dug
up... i've had no luck yet here in UK so far. Hope others do
better........


I haven't much luck with their English transmissions over the last few
years.
Even when the signal is audible, I can't understand 1/2 of what the
commentators
say due to their *heavy* accents.

The non-English transmissions seem to be stronger.

DPRK rhetoric can be had here

if you don't mind using the 'net.

This was my favorite DPRK headline dated July 14, 2003. They are
reprocessing uranium but revel over the making of a "rotating astronomical
chart".

Rotating astronomical chart made in DPRK
Pyongyang, July 14 (KCNA) -- Astronomers and archaeologists of the
Democratic People's Republic of Korea have succeeded in making a rotating
astronomical chart. It, made on the basis of the precession of the earth

and
the principle of the movement of celestial bodies, can observe the changed
constellations of any times.
Astronomical years of the ancient times measured by using the chart
coincide with those measured by archaeological and nuclear physical means.
The standard astronomical chart makes it possible to measure the
astronomical years according to the changed angles of constellations and
ascertain astronomical data reflected in historical relics.
It also makes it possible to correctly observe the past, present and
future constellations.
