Truth for the World 9740 via Nauen. Very brief, but friendly, unsigned no-
data personal letter in 5 weeks for their English broadcast via Bible
Voice Broadcasting. Very different from the response of a few months ago
to my report of their Chinese broadcast via Taiwan. I reported this to
various DX organizations at the time but am repeating part of it here
since it was such a contrast to their recent reply and because of their
surprising use of RTI QSL card and pennant. In 16 days I received the
following: partial-data letter from John M. Grubb, Mr. Grubb's business
card in English & Chinese, full-data Radio Taiwan International QSL card,
and small but elaborate multi-colored embroidered cloth Radio Taiwan
International pennant.
