Re: [HCDX] Final HCJB English broadcast

["Mick Delmage" <ve6idx@xxxxxxxx>]

Came in well here from tune in 1200 with Bill Graham, DXPL at 1230 and then
the fairwell.  Left the recorder on for final broadcast but was disappointed
with the splatter from Radio Havana Cuba.  If anyone has a decent recording
of the final 1/2 hour, I would appreciate getting in touch with me.

> ECUADOR 12005, 1300-, HCJB May 6 Fair to good reception and improving as
dawn proceeded.  Mostly a S7 signal.  Final analog broadcast of DXPL
followed at 1300 by a special farewell program bringing together a number of
HCJB personalities and plans for digital shortwave, etc.  Much discussion of
English as a second language programming.  English department 'isn't just
vanishing into thin air', but difficult decisions have been made.  Hope for
DRM.  Jeff Ingram moving to Singapore, while his son moves for a year to
Vancouver.  Passionate letters acknowledged.  Continue to write to Karen at
english@xxxxxxxxxxx, or snail mail.  Last chance for a QSL for English
broadcast mentioned, but keep writing.  Asking for prayers as many of the
staff leave Quito.  Goodbyes from everyone at 13:29:45, then fanfare, and
time-pips and off at 13:30.  Goodbye to an old friend!. 21455 was just a
very weak carrier.   (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC).
