What's the most you can verify these days? Something like 240?

Oh, I don't know. Never counted them all up but I think there are 250 + on the
list. However, many are now off the air.

Even out of my 220 verified I think 25-30 are now off the air.

I've heard 236 on the list.

That's quite a list. You must have a bunch of NASWA awards.

You have been at this a long time. Have any interest in being on the
NASWA committee?

Thanks.

47 or 48 I think.

You have been at this a long time.

Yes, I have. At least since I re-entered the hobby back in '82.

Have any interest in being on the
NASWA committee?

Not really. Is someone retiring?

Remind me dxAce what equipment do you use? Do you go after particular
stations or just "turn the dial around". You seem to get tons of
stations and of course I am jealous! What software if any do you
use for logging, searching, etc?

Thanks!

I currently have a Drake R7, R8, R8B and just for fun, at the moment I have a SW-1.

I generally go after particular stations.

I don't use any particular software for logging or searching. None of my equipment
is hooked up to the computer. I really don't keep a log of what I've heard, other
than the one in my head.

Heck, I don't know. It just seemed to me that since you progressed to
the point of practically QSL'ing the whole world over a decade or two
you might be involved in that group. I was just wondering about it.

In any event, you are certainly very accomplished in verifying what you
heard. Shows you have the interest, accuracy, and the patience to follow
through on a long-term goal. Congratulations on all those awards!

I wish there were more people with your interest posting in the news
group. John Figliozzi used to post here and maybe some other people I
haven't recognized may have but not recently. Recently a lot of crap has
been posted to the news group. Usually this happens when schools out but
these days it's all the time. This is not a problem for me but it is my
contention that the vast amount crap posted dissuades reasonable people
from posting relevant news because they dont want to deal with the
unreasonable people flaming them.

I do not normally see average people walking up and starting
conversations with the homeless so why should I expect normal people to
post in this news group with the large volume of blatantly nut case
posts?

I've heard them before, but I've never tried QSL-ing
them. Are they picky about reception reports?

What do you mean by 'picky'?

Picky as in requiring a couple of weeks
worth of reception reports, or a tape
to demonstrate you actually heard
them?

Neither.

Great catch! And a great QSL to add to your outstanding collection.

Speaing of AIR, my wife's grandfather used to be an AIR anchor back in
the 1950's. While with AIR, he started the program "Jaimala": a music
program for the faujis (army personnel). The program is still on the
air on AIR's Vividh Bharati program line-up. I believe 10330 kHz is
the only shortwave frequency on which VB programming is aired...no idea
if Jaimala makes it onto AIR's time-slots for that frequency.

At any rate, it's always a pleasure to receive AIR. It would be nice
if other South Asian broadcasters (e.g. Radio Pakistan, Bangladesh
Betar) were more easily heard in the U.S.
