RFA Offers the Olympic Panda
To commemorate the 2012 Summer
Olympic Games, Radio Free Asia is offering
a special Panda bear QSL card.
The card is a reproduction of the Olympic
pin that two RFA reporters will carry to
London during coverage of the Olympics.
This is also the third in a series of panda pin
and QSL designs that began in 2008 with the
Bejing Olympics. All valid reception reports
will be confirmed from July 1-August 31,
2012. More information about Radio Free Asia,
including the current broadcast frequency schedule,
is available at www.rfa.org/.
RFA encourages listeners – whether general
audience or avid DXer – to submit reception
reports to www.techweb.rfa.org (follow the
QSL REPORTS link). Reception reports are also
accepted by email at qsl@rfa.org: for anyone
without Internet access, reception reports can be
mailed to:
