After 65 weeks I received a friendly email from YvesZor at Bangkok Radio to QSL my reception of a DSC message from Bangkok Radio on 12577 kHz. It was worth the wait, although in the meantime YvesZor already QSL-ed my 2 MHz reception of Bangkok Radio which is a bit more special.
Nice reception Peter. Always nice to catch some South-East Asian radio stations.
Regularly I hear Bangkok Meteo Radio on 8743 kHz in voice, partly English and partly Thai language.
But don’t listen too long because they use an “Icecream van”- style tune and is a real earworm :o)
Have a nice weekend and good DX !

These guys definitely know a few things about politeness – apologizing for delay in QSLing which is hardly one of their cental tasks!
Seems that they enjoyed your mail, too, once they read it.
It’s a cultural thing. Asian people are always ever so polite. And when they have the time they will always reply. I got a QSL from a Japanese coastal station 5 years or so after my report. When the operator retired he started answering all the reports. I will make a post about this one at some point in time.
