UTC fr Shepparton. Postmark is from Singapore. Nice postcard of the
Shepparton antenna array against a sunset w/ insets of other antennas and
broadcasting equipment. Also received a complete listing of all RA
broadcasts world wide w/ times, freqs, target areas and programs carried.

Way to go Arnie. Your post gives me hope that my August report will
be answered at some point. Haven't had a QSL from RA in years.

RA used to have beautiful QSL cards with pictures of native wildlife.
I'm still looking for my QSL card collection. It's been missing for at
least ten years. I also had a nice collection of domestic AM reception
report cards from the 60's, when I used a five tube table-top Zenith
radio with an external random wire antenna. Maybe I'm the real dxAce.

well, if you're dx'ing all those Earth stations from whatever star you're at,
then I guess you are.

If he's picking them up from a star about 30-40 light
years away, he's picking up the transmissions
from the 1960's and 70's, which explains a few things.

Greetings, I just dug out my Radio Australia QSL, from a reception report they
verified from 26th March 1966, on 9.58Mc/s at 1230-1315 GMT, with a power of 10
kilowatts. There is a picture of a Platypus on the front of the QSL. If you
have a 2004 edition of Universal Radios catalog, their is a picture of the card
in the middle of the front cover. My QTH at the time was the midwest USA, and
my receiver was a Knight-Kit Space Spanner. Man, am I getting old! Good DXing
to you, Gary
