There will be a new and interesting QSL card for this "Revival" broadcast.
It will take several months to process the reception reports, so please be
patient.
Only reception reports sent by regular mail will be accepted. E-mail-
reports will NOT be accepted.
Return postage is absolutely required and is "at least" three IRC's or
"Greenstamps." "At least" means that RSH welcomes donations at any time
and in any amount.
All reports should be addressed to the Station Manager of RSH. The RSH
station manager is a lady: Ms. Laura Lawrence.
With very best greetings and good DX to everyone,

Essentially all the equipment for the SW station will arrive on St. Helena
on about Aug 13. A few days later, work will begin to dig the hole and
pour the concrete for the foundation for the 12.5 meter tall tower from
the "Hummel Al-Tower" company in Germany. By Aug 15, the special, 3-
element, mono-band beam antenna will have been constructed by the
"OptiBeam" company in Germany. The antenna will travel with me on the ship
to St. Helena at the end of September. I plan to arrive on the island on
Oct 15.
I also plan to be active in the local evenings on the amateur radio bands
in SSB with 100 Watts and a beam (I like the 20 Meter band) and hope to be
able to use the call-sign "ZD7PU". Naturally any QSL cards for amateur
radio contacts with me should be sent via the regular QSL- bureau or
directly to me in Germany (with Return Postage).

These four broadcasts are also regarded as special programmes in
connection with the 50th anniversary of the DSWCI on 18 Nov 2006. The
DSWCI will verify correct reception reports on these programmes by our
special DSWCI QSL-card, if return postage (1 IRC, 1 U.S. Dollar or 1 Euro)
is enclosed.
Please send your reports to DSWCI, Tavleager 31, DK-2670 Greve, Denmark.

Radio St. Helena.
1) Why "reception reports" should take several months to be acknowledged.
It is not a matter of be patient !
The experience of the past (1997, 1998, 1999) has shown that it does take
