Hello Mr Breyel.

My sincere apology for not responding to you earlier, or if I did, am doing this again because I have had a serious Internet deactivation and did not have access to email until around September 2013.

Anyway, thank you so much for the Reception Report of yours in Sept 2012 of Radio Madang - Maus Blong Garamut.
I have indeed printed a copy of your Report and pinned it up on the Staff Notice Board and have been sending copies to Madang Leaders & Administrators at quarterly Meetings where I present Reports on broadcasting & Radio.
We will soon be moving our Radio Madang, NBC National Radio Downlink here in Madang to a higher site on mt Nobonob and this may mean a better reception by yourself. Please continue to monitor and if you do get a better reception by October, it would be good for us to get a Report to confirm our improved transmissions and reception.
Best of regards
Makalai Bell
Director, NBC Madang

National Broadcasting Corporation (Alotau / Milne Bay, PNG)

National Broadcasting Corporation - Radio Milne Bay, transmitting from Alotau (Milne Bay), Papua New Guinea, was logged on 12 September 2012. News and music in English was observed from 20.05 to 20.30 UTC on 3.365 kHz. Reception (SINPO) was 25432 -- weak signal strength, fading and some atmosphere noise.

A reception report was initially emailed on the same day and subsequently posted. A number of follow-up emails were sent to info@nbc.com.pg. After realising a response was probably futile using this method of communication, I discovered a few links on Facebook that lead me to a contact  at Radio Milne Bay. A few emails and Facebook messages resulted, then word of the death of the Provincial Radio Manager at Milne Bay. Meanwhile I created a self-prepared eQSL, then a week later submitted it to Radio Milne Bay hoping my contact at the station would forward it to the Acting Provincial Radio Manager. Finally, on 4 December 2012, I received a response from the Acting Provincial Radio Manager who returned my eQSL (minus original colour and clarity) with his signature and NBC stamp.

Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation (Ekala)

All Asia Service of Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation (SLBC), transmitting from Ekala, was logged on 5 September 2012. I was asked in my previous communication with SLBC to listen for a "droning" sound from their 35 kW Collins transmitter. I tuned in and listened from 01.55 to 03.03 UTC on 15.745 kHz. Reception (SINPO) for much of the time monitored was 35333. I noticed some minor transmitter hum at 2.00 UTC which distorted speech slightly when the signal peaked. This was not so much of an issue as the fading and static. These latter two conditions are always prevalent when listening to SLBC on this frequency and at this time of morning in Malaysia. Despite these factors, audio quality was clear and audible; overall, I would rate SLBC's reception as fair.

Reception reported was submitted to SLBC shortly after their broadcast on 5 September 2012. This eQSL was received later in the evening.

Amateur radio operator YB1TJ (Indonesia)

Amateur radio operator YB1TJ in Tangerang Selatan, Indonesia was logged on 2 September 2012. From 09.45 to 10.20 UTC, he was heard repeatedly saying: "CQ. Yankee Bravo 1 Tango Juliet (YB1TJ). All Asia Contest. " Other amateur radio operators responded and were heard, including JA1... JS3...and others in the Asia region. Decibel and SINPO were provided by various operators. When verified, he stated: "QSL. 73s.  Sayonara. Transmission occurred on 14.260 kHz USB/SSB. Reception (SINPO) was 45434 -- good signal strength with some fading occasionally.

On 3 September 2012, I received confirmation from YB1TJ after sending a reception report to his Facebook account. He replied promptly with this message: "Thank you for your swl report. I will send my QSL card to your address. 73 Greeting from Indonesia. de Djoko YB1TJ." His QSL card arrived in the mail on 12 September 2012. Thank you very much, Djoko!

Amateur radio operator 9V1YC in Singapore was logged on 1 September 2012. He was heard from 17.55 to 18.00 UTC,  mentioning his call letters and the call letters of many other amateurs during the transmission, e.g:  "9 Victor 1 Yankee Charlie (9V1YC)...Bravo Delta 4 Whisky Norway (BD4WN)......Delta Charlie Kilowatt (DCK__ 5946)...Japan America 1 Charlie Kilo (JA1CK)...Zulu Lima 1 (ZL1__)...Canada Zulu 4 (CZ4 5946)." His transmission was on the frequency of  7.135 kHz (SSB). Reception (SINPO) was 55444 -- good signal strength with slight fading.

A sound file of this transmission may be heard HERE.

A reception report was emailed to 9V1YC on the following day. Unfortunately, 9V1YC (James A. Brook) has not replied. James, if you see and hear this blog entry, I would greatly appreciate adding your QSL to my collection. How about it?

I followed up by emailing 9V1YC's proxy QSL administrator (W5UE) who acknowledged the reception report and willingness to send a QSL. Unfortunately, an actual QSL card is impossible to obtain for these reasons: (1) it is illegal to send cash/bank draft in the mail as well as a risk to postal theft; (2) IRCs are no longer available from Pos Malaysia; and (3) PayPal is no longer viable for Malaysian credit card holders, so this prevents use of W5UE's services and possibility of obtaining IRCs from postal authorities overseas. I suppose I will have to settle with this email (indirect QSL) since neither 9V1YC nor W5UE will compromise their position. I wish you gentleman could be more flexible; every QSL posted on this blog was obtain without IRCs or money.


Radio Hargeisa (Voice of Somaliland)

Radio Hargeisa (Voice of Republic of Somaliland), presumedly transmitting from  Hargeisa, Somaliland was heard in a test transmission on 31 August 2012.

A sound file of this transmission may be heard HERE.
Reception report was submitted on the same day with subsequent follow-up emails, but I seriously doubt it will be acknowledged. Surprise! Surprise!
