The latest QSL cards received in the mail over the past few weeks for VK5PAS and VK5MAZ.

Received in the mail in the past few days, this very nice 4 page QSL card from Radio Thailand.

I received the QSL card below via the post in the past few days from Radio Dabanga.

The target audience is in Sudan.

Latest QSL cards received.

At about 1012 UTC on 26th April 2022, I tuned in to Unique Radio broadcasting in the English language on 3210 kHz.

This was the first time I had tuned in to Unique Radio on 3210 kHz. I normally hear their station on 5035 kHz with a much better signal.

The overall reception of Unique Radio on 3210 kHz was very poor.

At about 0952 UTC on 26th April 2022, I tuned in to Radio Vanuatu broadcasting in the Bislama language on 3945 kHz.

This was the first time that I had tuned in to Radio Vanuatu on this frequency. Previously I had heard them on 5040 kHz on a regular basis.

The overall reception of Radio Vanuatu was good.
