[HCDX] (no subject)



Radio Verdad has been reactivated. I caught them last night (29/May/2004 UTC) @ 0320-0420 UTC on 4052 kHz (my receiver does not allow more precise frequency measurements).

The announcer said that they had transmitter problems that were now fixed (thanks to God and the help of many Christians), so they were requesting reception reports to Apdo. Postal 5, Chiquimula, Guatemala, and promised a calendar, pennant and QSL card for correct reports.

They mostly were transmitting hymns sung by a woman (almost sounded like an opera :-), but sometimes there were announcers both male and female, with full IDs as "Transmite la estación educativa evangélica Radio Verdad, desde el Monte de Horeb y el Monte de Gloria, en Chiquimula, Guatemala, por 4.05 MHz banda SW1".

They also had a full ID in Japanese, complete with address. Nothing was heard in English during this listening period.

Signal quality was generally good, although sometimes the audio level was low, intermittently. Average SINPO=45344.
