Re: [IRCA] TP 12 Oct Victoria West Coast live snippet

[Guy Atkins <dx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Your story reminds me of the mid-1990s when I'd tune into RRI Palangkaraya
on 60 meters--regularly--during my morning drive to work.

The car receiver was a Philips DC-777; I think Walt Salmaniw owned one of
these fine units also. Its achilles heel was segments of the LCD digits
going out, due to poor connections with the printed circuit board (kind of
like the early CCradio displays).

I'm sure I was the only one in the office arriving at work humming the *Bagimu
Negeri* <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIep7XkDPL8> anthem  :^)
