Radio Free Asia (RFA) announces the release of our
18thAnniversary QSL card. RFA’s first broadcast was in Mandarin on September 29,
1996 at 2100 UTC. RFA is a private, nonprofit corporation broadcasting news and
information to listeners in Asian countries where full, accurate, and timely
news reports are unavailable. Acting as a substitute for indigenous free media,
RFA concentrates coverage on events occurring in and/or affecting Burma,
Cambodia, Laos, North Korea, the People’s Republic of China, and Vietnam. RFA
does not express editorial opinions but provides news, analysis, commentary, and
cultural programming in the languages of the country of broadcast. This is RFA’s
55th QSL design and will be used to confirm all valid RFA reception reports from
September 1-December 31, 2014.
Created by Congress in 1994 and incorporated in 1996,
RFA broadcasts in Burmese, Cantonese, Khmer, Korean to North Korea, Lao,
Mandarin (including the Wu dialect), Vietnamese, Tibetan (Uke, Amdo, and Kham),
and Uyghur. RFA strives for accuracy, balance, and fairness in its editorial
content. As a ‘surrogate’ broadcaster, RFA provides news and commentary specific
to each of its target countries, acting as the free press these countries lack.
RFA broadcasts only in local languages and dialects, and most of its broadcasts
comprise news of specific local interest. More information about Radio Free
Asia, including our current broadcast frequency schedule, is available at
www.rfa.org.
RFA encourages listeners to submit reception reports.
Reception reports are valuable to RFA as they help us evaluate the signal
strength and quality of our transmissions. RFA confirms all accurate reception
reports by mailing a QSL card to the listener. RFA welcomes all reception
report submissions at http://techweb.rfa.org (follow the QSL REPORTS link) not
only from DX’ers, but also from its general listening audience.
Reception reports are also accepted by email at
qsl@rfa.org and by mail to:
