Re: [HCDX] [dxld] Jihad-DX

[Rob Wise <rhwise@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hoyo Glen and all,

Exchange relationships between rival shows Dxing with Cumbre and WOR
wouldn't be easy, its not good when both shows quote the same emais on air
exactly the same etc. But if Hans was willing this could be a very
strong-hold for shortwaveradio.

You begin to wonder how reliable dxing with cumbre is thou as corrections
are not welcomed, another thing that lacks from them is the reel to reel
recording that marie uses in the NY community station, I know that you've
gotta work with what you've got but a simple windows 95 computer can record
audio well enough, and they are getting thrown away in USA.

But yet that community station doesn't wish to get a computer to record,
atleast than Marie's voice would be more natural sounding than the off pitch
voice.

Even HRI could produce a better show with the information.
