Beware of going by the frequency readout on this receiver (and many others of its type). It has no BFO, or SSB capability, so you can`t be sure where the carrier is. The readout goes in 1-kHz steps, according to reviews I have read. Djibouti is always reported on 4780, and VOA Botswana is surely on 4930.0, not 4929 unless something is very wrong there. Universitaria Bolivia is reported by everyone else close to 4732, not 4734 as Lucio had it (and news of its reactivation was welcome!). It`s easy to be misled by reading the dial where the station `sounds best`, especially if you are tuning a bit to one side to avoid interference. What needs to be reported is the true carrier frequency of stations, not necessarily what the readout says. A poor substitute for a BFO would be, if adjacent interference allows, to tune up and down to decide where the `middle` of the signal is. 73, Glenn Hauser
