The wonderful world of listening to the radio

QSL Radio Vanuatu 9960 kHz

An e-QSL card for Radio Vanuatu on 9960 kHz. In 2023 Radio Vanuatu started to issue e-QSLs. I tried to catch them on 7260 kHz but wasn’t successful. As Vanuatu would be a new EDXC country I decided to make an exception and tune in via a Kiwi SDR in Brisbane to get a QSL.

This week Helmut Matt let me know that Radio Vanuatu could be received in decent quality on their new frequency of 9960 kHz around 0630 – 0700 h UTC. So I gave it a try and this time I was able to hear them with news, weather and a Lionel Richie song. Given local noise not easy, but definitely doable: SINPO 24222. Within a day I got the eQSL from Warren Robert, Manager of Technical Services.

It feels good to have this station QSL-ed for a reception from my home QTH!

QSL Radio Vanuatu 7260 kHz

As far as I know Radio Vanuatu only recently started to award eQSLs. I heard them in the past, but never managed to receive a QSL. I did not have my old reception reports available anymore. And as you never know for how long the station will continue to issue eQSLs I decided to make an exception and tuned in via a KiwiSDR in Brisbane, Australia on 7260 kHz. In very good quality I listened to an enjoyable progamme bringing reggae and world music with news on the hour. One day later the QSL arrived by email. Thank you to Mr. Warren Robert for making the QSL available!
