Tony,

With all of your history and background knowledge, we really need to get you to lead a DX'ers tour of New Zealand! When that happens, I will be among the first to sign up.

Here I sit, near Toronto, listening to 2YC Wellington on the computer….although the confused announcer seems to think it is Concert Radio or something, and I bet she (she!) has forgotten its antenna is a cable strung from the top of 2YA’s mast! And viewed from the North side of Titahi Bay digs two years ago I could not for the life of me find the Radio NZ towers on the golf course, even with excellent binoculars. (G)
