Back in 1989 my sister in law was living in Kompalla,Uganda.I had
many years of NOT receiving any QSL/Reception report from the good folks
at Radio Uganda.So I decided to send a new repor,as well as a report
from my friend up in Manitowoc,Wisconsin,Sheryl P.the Tropical Band
editor for a fine American Shortwave Magazine,NASWA.I sent the Reports
first to my sister in law in Kompalla,she marched them down to the radio
station,and asked very nicely if they could PLEASE verify the
reports...they did,and sent them that day to our respective 	qths's in
Wisconsin.I just I'd share this with anyone interested.It's one of those
Radio stories that make this hobby so fascinating,and I'm sure others
out there have lots more similar situations.Oh yes,she also slipped the
guy at Radio Uganda a few Dollars 'Gratis'.  :)
