"...but he had fine Egnlish for African man." What makes you think
Africans can't speak English? The official language of Ghana is
English because it is a former British colony! In fact, English is the
official language or is spoken widely in many countries in Africa -
Nigeria, the Gambia, Sierra Leone, Liberia, etc. Get with it.


I don't think Ghana has used 5617.


I'm guessing that what was heard was 'Gander Radio', in Newfoundland on

the frequency of 5616.
This is an aero frequency.

Gee the good people of Newfoundland sound like
an African-Man speaking English )

well you live and learn ~ RHF

To me, they sound like Irish speaking English.
In the early days of colonization, the Scottish booked
passage to Nova Scotia, but the impoverished Irish
went for the shorter trip from Ireland to Newfoundland.
