You’ll see that we discontinued 3955 kHz to Europe and the 0300 UTC broadcast to North America.
We want to schedule two good broadcasts to Europe and at least one good broadcast to North America, so we’d like comparative reports on the 6070 kHz transmissions for Europe and the 9670 kHz transmissions to North America.
If you’d like to help with the comparative reports, here are some tips to help us use your information most efficiently:
+Both the 6070 and both the 9670 kHz reports should be sent in separate emails;  please don’t combine reports on different frequencies in the same email.
+Please use SINPO signal quality ratings with a detailed explanation, and then let us know which broadcast overall is better at your location.
+Please include a representative audio clip from each transmission so we can hear what you heard.
Based on your reception reports, our May program schedule will cover the rest of the A-25 schedule period.
We’ll send a special QSL (different from the regular monthly design) for the comparative reports.  You’ll also receive a regular QSL for one of the broadcasts you report on.
Thanks for your help.
