Tom Lucey of the FCC International Bureau offered some comments about the<br />

June freq coordination meeting in Hilversum, Holland. The next HFCC will<br />

be in Greece in August so he requested proposed schedules from NASB<br />

members by June 29th.<br />

The brief public session in the afternoon featured an informal question<br />

and answer session with some IBB representatives. This was followed by<br />

Adrian Peterson, AWR International Relations and NASWA Editor, who<br />

presented "Wandering the World with a Radio." Over the years, Adrian has<br />

been a monitor for many broadcasters while stationed overseas (VOA, BBC,<br />

DW, FEBA Seychelles, and Radio Australia). Adrian has in his possession a<br />

1902 radio card of Marconi believed to be the oldest known radio card.<br />

That was the last "open" presentation of the meeting. The NASB Business<br />

Meeting began at 1:30 PM. During that session, Jeff White was selected to<br />

be the new NASB president. The two-day combined meeting of the US DRM<br />

Consortium and the NASB was a wonderful opportunity to hear what was going<br />

on in the SW world from North American broadcasters and, equipment<br />

manufacturers.<br />

USA/CHINA/CUBA Adil Mina, a Vice President at Continental Electronics<br />

with 40 years of industry experience, mentioned that in the last four to<br />

five years over 90% of new SW transmitting equipment has been purchased by<br />

the Chinese (later he mentioned that China will be installing seven 500 kW<br />

txs in Cuba this year).<br />
