RADIO FREE ASIA ANNOUNCES YEAR OF THE OX QSL
JANUARY 2021
Radio Free Asia (RFA) announces
its latest QSL card commemorating 2021 as the Year of the Ox according to the
Chinese astrology calendar. People born in ox years are considered kind, caring,
logical, positive, having a great deal of common sense, and live with their
feet ‘firmly planted on the ground.’ They are also considered to be hard
workers in order to provide comfort and security for their families, while also
highly intelligent and strong-minded. The ox is one of 12 animals used in the
Chinese Zodiac; the others are tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat,
monkey, rooster, dog, pig, and rat. This QSL
card confirms all valid reception reports from January 1 – April 30, 2021. The
design was created by RFA’s Brian Powell.
Created by Congress in
1994 and incorporated in 1996, RFA broadcasts in Burmese, Cantonese, Khmer,
Korean to North Korea, Lao, Mandarin Chinese, Vietnamese, Tibetan (including Uke,
Amdo, and Kham dialects), and Uyghur. RFA strives for accuracy, balance, and
fairness in our editorial content. As a ‘surrogate’ broadcaster, RFA provides
news and commentary specific to each of our target countries, acting as the
free press these countries lack. RFA broadcasts only in local languages and
dialects, and most of our broadcasts comprise news of specific local interest. More information about RFA, including our
current broadcast frequency schedule, is always available at www.rfa.org.
RFA encourages listeners
to submit reception reports. Reception
reports are valuable to RFA as they help us evaluate the signal strength and
quality of our transmissions. RFA
confirms all accurate reception reports by mailing a QSL card to the
listener. RFA welcomes all reception
report submissions at http://techweb.rfa.org (follow the QSL REPORTS link) not
only from DX’ers but also from our general listening audience.
Reception reports are also accepted by email at qsl@rfa.org and by mail to:
