Hier meine Sammlung von QSL Karten und Briefen . Viele dieser Stationen gibt es nicht mehr, sie sind meistens in irgendwelchen AM Radio Ketten wie Gold oder Magic AM aufgegangen. Das "Hören" war zT. auch einfach, am Anfang gab es über Nacht kein Programm, sondern Endlosschleifen mit Testansagen. Was gab es nicht für eine Vielfalt: Country Musik , Asiatische, Religiöse, Frauen, Nachrichten Sender und jede Menge lokale Stationen. Heute gibt nur noch das Beste von- was weiß ich.
Here is my
collection of QSL cards and letters. Many of these stations do not exist
anymore, they have mostly risen in some AM radio chains like Gold or Smooth.
The "hearing" was partly. also simple, at the beginning there was no
program overnight, but endless loops with test announcements. There was a real variety: country music, Asian, religious,
women program , news channels and lots of local stations.
Today they had only ‘ the best of ‘.
