I'm constantly asking myself the same question. Don't they ever listen
to their own broadcast? Unbelievable.

Man, you're lucky to have the real estate for a 1500 ft wire. That
must be nice!

You know what gets me is that their audio is always poor. I've heard some of
the old QRMers on 75 meters from years ago have better audio. Used to be a
guy named Walter up in the NJ/NYC area that played this old Marching music
on 75 meters. He was about broadcast quality audio. Yet for some reason, the
people in that round building in Cairo can't get the audio right. Its been
awful for years and I've been into SWL and Ham for 15 plus years.

I'm thinking of writing one of their technical people and finding out the
scoop on why their audio is always so distorted. It sounds like someone has
a mouthful of peas trying to talk. It used to be quite bad on 9900 years ago
as well. 12050 had better audio and some of their Arabic broadcasts weren't
bad. Some good mics and audio gear would help immensely. They need to talk
to Berringer, Audio Technica or the like. Its bad.

Whatever you do do not point out the length of this antenna to Eduardo
or he will have a another posting spasm.

Why this Antenna is So... Long...
That It Could Bridge Two Adjacent 10 mv/m Contours
-and- Disrupt the Separation of Localized Media Markets.

The Continuum of Localized Radio Broadcasting must be
'preserved' to Maximize Profit for the Media Corporations.
