Same new YL hostess as last week, says QSLs have been sent to those
reporting since resumed Feb 17. Those called this week, many of the
names not understandable: 1) Portugal; 2) Antonio? from Croatia wanted
a song to be IDed; 3) Chakroborty, India, laments skiresort fire
disaster; 4) John Jurasek, Orlando FL, welcome back; 5) Alan Roe, UK,
welcome back, heard since Feb 18, explain what happened? She repeats
briefly what said last week, and makes a point again that there is now
only one ``political`` program, on Fridays: I guess that would be the
`Foreign Policy` one which just repeated today. 7) Christer Brunström,
Sweden, TV audio on SW was not a good idea, she agrees. 2329 a song.
2333, 8) Lithuania, report for QSL. 9) Chris? from Canada; 10) Chris
Campbell [Ohio], says VOT his favorite station, has been SWL since
1986 and plans to visit Turkey soon; 11) Mike? from Belgium. 12)

0000 March 3 timesignal and German s/on. 0010 same `Letterbox` theme
now called `Briefkasten`. Keeps going in German, but by 0016 I notice
Chinese only, which has been uncovered sounding just as strong as VOT
was (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
