Walt and Others, Cantonese was my "dating language" for a 3 year period (from 1987-1990), and I used all the Yale University textbooks and cassette tapes for a serious study effort. Cantonese and Mandarin are easily distinguishable to anyone who has struggled to make progress in either dialect :-) 73, Gary DeBock In a message dated 9/8/2009 11:38:43 A.M.

Gary DeBock confirms that it is Mandarin and not Cantonese, so this suggests highly that it's KBS Foreign Service. I'm happy either way, as I've heard VOA Poro a number of times from the Queen Charlottes. Thanks to all that filled me in on who this could be. Reception was mighty strong, especially when I'm right beside KPUG! Directional antennae sure help, and my 334 degree "West" wire has been a major winner for several years now....Walt _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above.
