MAPLE LEAF Mailbag - June 24, 2012

Dear Friends, I am distraught that the final edition of the MLMB did not go out properly this past weekend because of technical glitches. The show can be heard on line by clicking on the search button on the RCI website and writing in "Maple Leaf Mailbag." Then hit "programs" and click "listen." My apologies that we could not spend our final hour together as planned. Once again, I thank you all for your undying love, support, insight, graciousness and generosity. You are wonderful and magical. I shall never forget you. Be well, everyone. Au Revoir and peace! Terry Haig

FRIDAY JUNE 29

0200-0400 PCJ Radio Special farewell to RNW, on WRMI 9955
For more details visit http://www.pcjmedia.com

Keith Perron on Facebook: Some of the voices you will hear include Jerry Cowan, Nevil Grey and John van den Steen plus many others. We will take a listen to some moments from RNW from the late 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s. This includes a visit to the original Radio Netherlands building and more.

An additional frequency from secret location (until announced on the broadcast) is to be used, and publicized ``a few days in advance`` but had still not been revealed as of 2245 UT June 28.

A bit cheeky to schedule this at the same time as RN`s own Last Show! Keith agrees
Well, we may wind up listening to one or both online instead of SW, sigh

UPDATE: last week we had the impression that Tom Meijer was going to be on the June 29 Spanish despedida, but he has already appeared on the penultimate 20-minute Cartas @ RN show of June 17:

The programme schedule for Friday 29 June has been published. A special Farewell and Thank You programme will go out on every shortwave transmission and World Radio Network [WRN] relay.

RADIO NORD REVIVAL STARTS FRIDAY NIGHT: still no specific times; see June 30

Re Ronny Forslund on Facebook tonight:

"Radio Nord Revival is now running on 88.6 MHz from Sala [Sweden] with 2 kW. Happy to hear from you and tell you how we can be heard. Medium wave and short wave will begin Friday night. Frequencies to monitor: 603, 5895, 6065 kHz." (Translated by Bing)

And when reminded about Radio Netherlands using 6065 kHz until 2057 UTC tomorrow with their farewell programme he replied: "Yes, we will naturally avoid to interfere with them so we will be using 5895 kHz when they are on...." (Alan Pennington bdxcuk yg June 28 via DXLD)
