Mr. Breyel i just recently started SWL in mainland japan. i have found many of the stations that you have posted here in your blog. I have filed some reception reports for those stations that provide website submission pages. Can you please post an example of one of your email reception reports? I would like to see how much info you send them so I can start doing email reception reports too. Thank you
