postage?? But nice of him to deliver the letters anyway gh]. The station's
personnel did not even know him!
Another interesting thing was R. Valles del Tuy in Ocumare del Tuy on
6130v kHz. They were active in the 1980s but had such a weak transmitter
that it was hard to get their signal even at a distance of a few km. They
definitely had only a handful of Watts left to blow into the air; but they
were still active on shortwave!
My favourite stations / programmes in that time were "Lo que esta noche
recuerda" (night program of Ecos del Torbes) and the latin hitparade
broadcast during the night on LV de Carabobo and on R. Yaracuy.
I visited almost every SW station which was active in Venezuela at that
time. Nowadays it seems that not a single one is left on shortwave.

EDXC Conference in Ankara, October 2010, by Kaj Bredahl Jorgensen,
on dswci SWN.
The 2010 Conference of the European DX Council was held last weekend in
Turkey.
The annual EDXC meeting and conference was held on September 30th to
October 2nd, 2010 in Ankara and sponsored by TRT, the Voice of Turkey.
Together with my wife I had the great pleasure to participate this annual
event also this year. Unfortunately our Chairman, Anker Petersen could not
attend this year due to an eye operation, so I was the only Danish
delegate this year.
We left Copenhagen airport [...] to Hotel Dedeman in Ankara, which was the
headquarters for the conference. This hotel is a five star international
hotel with many facilities. In the lobby, EDXC Secretary Tibor Szilagyi
greeted us. [...] At 1200, the registration in the hotel was opened, where
Tibor and I sat in the lobby and registered participants. A few of those
had already arrived on Wednesday. During the afternoon most of the
participants arrived. In all 19 people from 9 countries participated. As
usual the biggest delegation came from Finland with 7 participants, 2 from
Japan, and then just one from Sweden, France, Italy, Russia, Germany,
Denmark, and the United Kingdom.
By the way, most of those were DSWCI members! In the evening we had the
usual informal get-together in the hotel, where many issues were discussed
together with a beer or two.
Friday, October 1st:
At 0900 we left our hotel to drive to TRT, The Voice of Turkey's
headquarter, situated about 45 minutes drive from our hotel... When we
came to the big headquarter, we saw a big poster in the lobby made
especially for the EDXC conference by TRT. There we were welcomed by, Mr.
Mahmut Filiz, deputy director and Mrs. Ufuk Gecim, head of the German
section as well as several other persons employed by the radio station.
First we went through the domestic department, where we saw a little
exhibition of old radio and TV equipment which has been used by TRT during
