Hi Emile, try a Google search for "Haiti Radio". You might find something there to your liking. As far as I know there is nothing on shortwave out of Haiti at the moment.

This thread reminds me of my "old days" .
Looking at a QSL from Radio 4VEH Cap-Haitien Haiti. The one that is black & white and has a childrens choir with a mic top center. It is to me & dated 12-12-1978 at 2305-2330 GMT on 11835 KHZ 25 meters. Signed by Edna Beachy. I'm sure many of you have a card just like it. Heck I don't even fool with QSL's anymore. Seems like it would cost a fortune & I dx for my enjoyment. Not to try to wow others. When I first got my Amateur license again.....12/18/98 .... working & verifiy my first 100 countries was a BIG deal for me. Heck it took me almost 7 months. Then I got into contesting & found I could easily work 100 countries in one weekend . I guess that is one reason I don't fool with QSL's. 73, Ken KG4BIG N8KDV wrote in message ...

But, to really 'advance' in the ham hobby, one has to have the QSL's, to get the awards at least. But as you say, the enjoyment does come first. 73, Ken KG4BIG N8KDV wrote in message ...

I have that card too....except I heard the station in early 1979. The card came in the mail much later, around September 1979 if I recall correctly. Also in late 1979, I read in the "Sweden Calling DX-ers" newsletter (remember those?) that the Haitian Goverment had made up some new rule preventing 4VEH from using the shortwave bands (they still could use the "tropical" bands though). They disappeared from 11835 around the start of 1980, and moved down to a couple of tropical band frequencies. I don't know how long they used them, but they're not there now.... 4VEH also experimented with a special antenna to enhance skywave transmission. This was on 1595(?) kHz. Lasted about a year or so.

I QSL'd 4VEH 11835 in 1982. V/s, Edna Beachy. Not sure when they actually left 11835. WRTH 1984 shows them on 11835, 1986 does not, and I do not have a 1985 WRTH.
