Maybe, given the size of East Timor, there's not much point in a regional
shortwave station? Probably just an FM station instead.

Hi again

It is surprising that, having achieved independence, there hasn't been an
attempt to establish an international or at least regional short wave
service.

Well, no, I was thinking more along the lines of a legitimate station
since
East
Timor is independent of Indonesia these days.

I have a nice recording of the clannie
Radio Free Bougainville, which is perhaps my best catch from that region
(Indo/PNG). Another good one was RPDT Buol Toli Toli when it was being
heard
for a few months in 1993(?).

I have two QSL's for Dili from 1990. One is my own prepared card, and
the
other
is their own card.

I'd like to see renewed activity from E. Timor, but somehow I doubt
that
it will
be an RRI station.
