[HCDX] R Zambia 4910 kHz 18 UTC



I read R Zambia is back on 4910 kHz. Glad to listen to their news programme in English 18 UTC. This reminds me about the time before Internet. In the 70´s and early 80´s I heard R Zambia on 4919 kHz and sent my logging to Arne Skoog´s "Sweden Calling DX-ers"-px of R Sweden. I was proud to hear my name being mentioned in the programme. Radio Sweden even sent bulletins to active contributors. Very friendly service from them!  My receiver was a Japanese made Trio/Kenwood 9R-59DS- nine valve communications receiver. This receiver was very, very popular among Finnish DX-ers in the 70´s. I think. I was very advanced, I had a domestic made Digidex frequency calculator with my receiver with an accuracy of 1 kHz.
 
My question is, where are all the great radio personalities these days?!  Certainly Arne Skoog of SCDX was one of them!
