My long cherished DX dream of verifying
Radio Dabanga was fulfilled yesterday. I consider this station as one of the most
attractive Clandestine Stations operating today on the shortwave spectrum. I have heard them multiple times in
the past yet somehow didn't find enough confidence to send them reception
report, mostly because either the signal wasn't clear enough for me to note a
distinct station ID or I was lazy to pen down my report after hearing them on air.
However, on Jun 22, 2013, I listened to their Arabic broadcast on 15725 KHz via Santa
Maria di Galeria (CVA) from my QTH in Kolkata, India on my Tecsun PL310 receiver
and sent my report to them right away for verification.
It took me a couple of times to follow up
with the audience relation authority and ultimately after 1 year of
sending my reception report I received a full-data QSL card delivered to my address from Radio Dabanga. It was sent from Free Press Unlimited office in Amsterdam, The Nederlands.
