[IRCA] First e-QSL

[John H. Bryant]

Last summer, a few of us heard a weak unID on 765 kHz. that seemed 
(by propagation pattern) to be coming from NZ. I think that I may 
have been the only one of us to finally get just above threshold 
audio and it was not English, but sounded Polynesian to me.  I sent a 
tentative report to an interesting fairly new station on 765, a Maori 
station called Radio Kahunguru in the Hawkes Bay/Hastings area of 
North Island and I never got a reply.  Ten days ago or so, I was 
preparing to send a snail mail follow-up, but I checked with their 
website again and decided to use their listener e-mail to ask for a 
confirmation of their snail mail address.  I just this minute 
received the following:



Tena koe (It's used as a formal greeting to one person and a way of 
saying hello in the Maori language)


I did receive your letter but I didn't get around to answering it. 
I'm sorry about that.


You are correct that recording you made was off our frequency 765AM 
which is based in Hastings, Hawke's Bay, which is half way down the 
East Coast of the North Island in New Zealand.


The audio was of one of our link stations this one being based in 
Auckland called Radio Waatea.


There are 21 Iwi radio stations based around New Zealand and we are 
called the Maori Radio Network. Each Iwi (Tribal region) has a radio station.


If you would like to check the radio station's out you can do so on 
www.irirangi.net


It's always a pleasure to receive these types of enquires. Please 
keep in contact.




Thank you

I'm really pumped up about this QSL!!!  One of my more exotic 
stations. There does seem to be a problem with the station website 
listed above


In any case, now we know the identity of this "mystery station."

I can see both sites you linked in your email.. both work fine for me.

I wonder if there's an issue on your end ebcause the website isn't in
english, so maybe your ISP or virus stuff thinks it's spam?

Congrats John. Radio Kahungunu is not new though. They have been around
since 1989, per my QSL from 1992. They replacd the old "Apple Radio",
2ZK. In the late 70s, early 80s,  2ZK was common here on the coast, but
I don't hear Radio Kahnugunu near as often as I used to. Asians seem to
cover the DU's a lot more than they used to. Great going.

73,

Patrick
