[HCDX] Diego Garcia confirmation

["bjorn fransson" <bjornfransson@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

This email letter arrived today!
73 from a happy Bjorn Fransson, Gotland, Sweden

"This letter serves as confirmation of your August 20, 2000,
reception of Armed Forces Radio and Television.  The signal originates from 
Diego Garcia on 4319 khz and 12579 khz.

AFRTS shortwave radio transmissions have historically existed to provide
AFRTS radio service to U.S. Navy vessels and outlying military posts
receiving limited American radio or television through other means.  The
signals will be in existence for a limited time until a new technology,
which is currently being tested, allows for reception of AFRTS via
satellite.

We are pleased that you have received the AFRTS shortwave signal and
thank you for your interest and confirmation of the signal's quality, and I 
apologize for the delay in my response.

Sincerely,

Michael Foutch
Chief Broadcast Operations Specialist"
