G'day

For those in the northern hemisphere, summer is enjoying a final
month before giving way to cooler days; whilst here in the South
Pacific, we look forward to the arrival of warmer spring
days...........and both options encourage us to keep a radio along
for company.

Keeping Radio Memories
_______________________

It's also one-third of the way through our financial year, and time
to reflect on progress being made with the project to look after
radio memories. We learn almost weekly of major shortwave radio
stations going silent, of AM and FM radio folding under the onslaught
of digital radio, of hobby magazines like Monitoring Times closing
down..............and suddenly it's good to know that there is a
place where people are doing something to keep radio memories alive,
collected and protected, and shared with others............ 

Aussie & now Kiwi Radio Guides
______________________________

As a volunteer based organization, we depend on new technologies to
do the work, keep in contact, and make life a little easier. Thanks
to Chris, our ever patient Webmaster, we've now got some ways to
involve others in the exciting task of data entry, which results in
things like THE New Zealand Radio Guide, the amazingly popular
Australian Radio Guide and other neat services that folks enjoy, and
find useful. Have you used them yet?


Facebook is OK for some
_______________________ 

Nearly 700 now like us on Facebook too, where we share items from the
collections, stories, news, competitions and enjoy feedback and
comments from supporters worldwide...............do come and like us:

$3899 funding shortfall
_______________________

Within the next 15 days, will you make a donation towards those key
operating costs we face every week? We're currently running at only
50% of where we need to be........and the target is A$3,899 by August
21............

* $100 Sponsor x 39
* $75 Contributing Gold x 52

More staying longer
___________________

More people are now staying much longer at the project, and the new
Retro Radio Dial features are proving very popular.........plus I
hope you've seen the new features on the early days of Radio 2AP
Samoa and the US Armed Forces Radio Mosquito Network station 1ZM in
Auckland, New Zealand.........

PLUS 350 other features, hundreds of new recommended books and music
in our Amazon stores......and our thanks to folks who keep the
collections refreshed with more memorabilia every week.....station
ephemera, QSL cards, promotional items..........but please don't send
transmitters and antennas or old radios...........we just don't have
the room for them!

Enjoy!
______

Enjoy the rest of summer, or winter..........and visit the project as
often as you can......even if you read just one feature a day you'll
be back every day for almost a year.............and if you'd help us
cover the A$3,899 shortfall in operating costs by August 21 we'll be
honored to add you to the Supporters Roll of Honor.

Warm wishes
