Re: [HCDX] Radio St. Helena situation

["Harald Kuhl" <HKu-DX@xxxxxx>]

Finding a used hf transmitter shouldn´t be the problem. But: Is the RSH
technician willing to do the technical service for such a tx and its
antenna? Otherwise it would not make sense to shop for a transmitter,
because it would go the same way as many swbc transmitters in f.e. mainland
Africa.

Regards,
Harald
