I was going to correct the reply below and say that Radio Paradise was not on 820 but on 830 kHz. I decided first to check their website and sure enough they are on 820 kHz. I have a QSL card from Radio Paradise from 1991 that states a frequency of 830 kHz. I had actually heard the station when it was still on 825 kHz. I sent my letter directly to Radio Paradise and never received a reply.This was just at the time that Trinity Broadcasting took over. About a year later, I saw an article on a verification from Trinity. I sent my original letter plus a second letter to Trinity explaining that I had heard the station when it was still on 825 kHz and asked if they would they verify my report as being for a reception on 825 kHz even though they were no longer on this frequency.
They did. Dave Burlington, ON On 2011-10-27, at 2:57 PM, David Yocis wrote: > > Hi Alan - I am no help on antenna questions, but your 820 unID might have > been Radio Paradise, St. Kitts.
