Time to summarize February

Well – it’s soon time to summarize the mailbox findings during March, but anyway … For some reason this message didn’t show up on my blog when I tried to post it in the beginning of this month. The publish by e-mail system is not perfect yet.
February brought two verifications, both North American, and both as results of loggings during the KONG13 DXpedition in October 2005.
On February 14 I received a nice letter from Harrie Jones, Chief Engineer at CFRA Ottawa ON 580, where he kindly confirmed my October 16 reception of the station.
On February 27 another envelope with foreign stamps hit my mailbox. This one came from David F. Becker, owner and GM of KGTL Homer AK 620. In addition to verifying my October 19 reception by a nice QSL card, he also
enclosed a business card, a sticker and a few other items.

CFMJ Richmond Hill ON 640 verification

Today’s QSL came from Jason Lemieux, Broadcast Engineer at CFMJ
AM640 Toronto Radio. In a friendly letter he verified my October
16, 2005 reception. The station was heard in Kongsfjord with a
huge signal that night, and even though it is a fairly common
station, I simply had to send them a reception report to let them
hear the quality of their signal this far away.

JOQC NHK-2 Morioka 1386 verified

First verification in March arrived yesterday in a padded
envelope, containing a nice verification letter and a couple of post
cards from Kenji Murakami at the engineering section of
NHK-2 in Morioka. Kenji Murakami verified my October 14 reception of one of the short local identification breaks. This is the third NHK-2 station on 1386
kHz I get verified – only one more to watch for. :-)
