Default Greenland - Interesting!

Here is an interesting exchange between Glenn Hauser and Lou Gentile:

GREENLAND [non?]. IBC Radio now has this brief note on their
Shortwave page:

``IBC Radio Network is back on shortwave 24/7 at frequency 7.330 MHz.
For more information, please contact: ``

You may recall that a couple weeks ago they claimed this frequency was
15 kW somewhere in Greenland; then that was removed saying they were
off SW. No one has heard anything from them on 7330 yet. Then as
requested, I contacted Lou Gentile (Glenn Hauser, OK, April 5, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

Lou, Am unable to hear IBC Radio on 7330 as mentioned on the website.
Where is this transmitter located? Greenland, as reported before? Can
you give any details of the power and antenna direction? Regards,
Glenn Hauser (to Lou Gentile, via DXLD)

Hello Glenn, Unfortunately, due to the comments made by you on your
show while you were still on our network (IBCRN), I will have to
decline giving you any information about our shortwave broadcast,
transmitter location, wattage or any other information other than
frequency. We are a publicly traded company and your comments/words
had an effect on our stock price for which we can still legally pursue
damages incurred.

Yourself & Jeff White had no right to disclose ANY information about
what we were doing because we were paying for air-time. Mr. White
emailed you, our hosts and other individuals about IBC dropping
shortwave with WRMI no more than 24 hours after doing so.

Furthermore, your comments about our R&D with Low Power AM
transmitters for communities across the USA have been childish and not
up to par with a professional broadcaster reporting news but with
someone with a vendetta because we dropped there show.

I feel sorry for you if all you have to report is a company dropping
shortwave. The shortwave community is dead in the USA and the sooner
you realize that, the better. We did and we are recovering from a
major loss of funds since being lead into believing there was a
shortwave audience.

I would highly suggest you carefully choosing your words on the air
next time about IBC.

PS: I pay for the air-time for IBC as part of my strategic
partnership, so I am executing my right as a shareholder of IBC Radio
Network to tell you this about our shortwave transmission: 7.330 Mhz

That's it, nothing more, now or in the future...

Best regards, Lou lougentile @ lougentile.com (sic April 6 via DXLD)

Lou, I have no idea what comments you are referring to my having made
when I was still on your network. As far as I know, the relationship
was cordial with Daryn and I gave IBC the benefit of the doubt.

I did not ask to be on IBC; he asked to carry my program. When he no
longer wanted to carry it, that was fine with me, and I assure you I
have no `vendetta` as a result!!! He did not give me any such reason
for dropping WOR.

Jeff White had every right to inform his listeners about programming
changes, including the cancellation of IBC on WRMI.

I am merely trying to get to the bottom of the story, to ascertain
basic facts about your broadcasts, which would be routine public
information at any other station, and all I get is ``can`t tell you
that``, with the excuse that it`s because you are a publicly traded
company. I have no interest in harming or aiding your stock prices.

It is YOUR credibility which is in serious danger, if you do not
provide a few facts, which can be verified. No doubt many listeners
will be looking for your alleged signals on 7330 and 1610, and if
anyone hears them I will be eager to report that. If no one can hear
them, while you continue to claim to be broadcasting on those
frequencies, that will also be reported.

It would be in your interest to ASSIST listeners in hearing the
transmissions, if they exist, by giving the basic data I asked for.
It is amazing that you don`t seem to comprehend this. Regards, (Glenn
Hauser, to Lou Gentile, via DXLD)

Hello Glenn, Shortwave has no credibility as far as I am concerned. I
provide IBC on shortwave as a bone to the few who listen. Don't try to
justify the fact you kiss Jeww White's ass because he owns WRMI, you
could have asked us for a comment BUT YOU DID NOT. The 2rd coming of
Christ will happen before I give you ANY information and legally I do
not have to tell you squat, I pay for the airtime, not IBC! Don't
bother me again with this trivial garbage please because I'll just
block you next time... ------------- Best regards, (Lou, ibid.)

Geez, what I go thru just trying to get the facts for you, dear
listeners. One cannot help but suspect they have something to hide.
But please keep an ear on 7330, and if in Philadelphia or New Jersey,
1610 (gh, DXLD)

I would tend to agree with Glen on this one.
