The capital of Cape Verde is not Mindelo, but Cidade da Praia, in the island
of Santiago. Due to its excelent port, I can say that Mindelo, in the island
of São Vicente, is the economical capital of  the country, but Cidade da
Praia is its political capital.

Back in 1976 or 1977, I could listen to Rádio Barlavento, from Mindelo, on
the 75 meterband. Unfortunately, no Capeverdian radio is audible on
shortwaves nowadays.

In your bulletin DX Listening Digest 0-105, you mentioned the appearance on
the Web of an official site of the Macau Special Administrative Region, in
China. As a Portuguese citizen, I'm glad to inform you that things are
running rather smoothly in that territory, since it was handed over by
Portugal back to China. Radio Macau is still broadcasting programmes in
Portuguese and relaying news bulletins of RDP, from Lisbon. Many Portuguese
citizens are still living in Macau, and some others, who had come to
Portugal for fear, are returning to Macau. Therefore, the ties between Macau
and Portugal are not completely cut. You can verify this for yourself,
noting that the official website of the territory is also available in
Portuguese.
