[IRCA] VON likely moved to 860 from 895

[midcapemarc@xxxxxxx]

Glenn-

VON-860 was logged by Mark Connelly about a week ago (Friday 8/27 I believe) from Orleans, Cape Cod, MA with his Perseus & car rooftop antenna.  I don't recall the exact time but probably around 2330-0000 UTC.  I'm sure details will be in DXM & DXN soon.

We already had news of this in the Aug 4 issue of DX LISTENING DIGEST, 10-31. 
ltho replete with SW info, DXLD also strives to cover significant developments 
n MW and other bands, so I would encourage you to read it regularly. And/or 
isten to my WORLD OF RADIO, where this was also reported.

** SAINT KITTS & NEVIS. Voice of Nevis, more popularly known as VON 
adio, after 22 years of operating on 895 AM is now on 860. Change 
ook effect on Saturday evening 10 July 2010. The station is known as 
he ``Power House of the Eastern Caribbean``. Notice of the change was 
iven out on a regular basis over the last several weeks during many 
opular programmes. VON Radio recently celebrated its 22nd anniversary 
f broadcasting throughout the region, having been launched in June 
988 (from http://nevispages.com 12 July via Alan Pennington, MW 
eport, August BDXC-UK Communication via WORLD OF RADIO 1524, DXLD 10-31) 
With illustration showing 895 marked out, replaced by 860 ``We made 
he change for you! since only the best will do!

No, you didn`t and surely not for any other DXer in the world! 895 was 
n unique frequency, free of co-channel QRM, and often could be heard 
n NAm. Now it will be much tougher against all the 860 stations. What 
n the world were they thinking? Yeah, I know, all those used caradios 
hat won`t tune split channels (Glenn Hauser, WORLD OF RADIO 1524, DX
