** TURKEY. 9660.018-, Sunday March 1 at 1730, VOT English, S9+10/25
into UTwente, news mostly about Iran; 1740 song; 1746 `Letterbox` with
Cemre who says this is the highlight of her week, mail from US, India,
China, Sweden, Finland. 1) William Wighnock? Narnox?, Norwood MA. 2)
Jayanta Chakraborty, New Delhi, weekly, asks about beach resorts.
Mentions 3, names uncopiable, on Mediterranean, Aegean, Black Sea
coasts; also mountains for winter sports, landscapes. Suggests
programs about eminent personalities. Maybe, they consider new topix
every 6 months. 3) Mr Amman? Bayne?, pres. of SWL club in India since
1990, 348 members. Reports 6125 via UTwente at 0400; No one in India
reports `their` fq 7285, but the NAm one!, enclosed club stuff.
Vegetarians in Turkey? Some, not widespread, but there are vegetablic
staple dishes. 4) J? J? Xian?, Guangzhou, China, she mispronounces
ending in oo, not oh, 44 years old. 5) Björn Danielson?, southern
Sweden, complains that 5980 is spreading out plus/minus 15 kHz causing
ACI. That`s Turkish at 17-22. 6) ? ?, Tampere, Finland, 13635 had QRM
from 13633 jammer - I doubt that. 7) Siddartha Papajarjee, India,
reminds of World Radio Day 13 Feb. 1807 that`s it, 1808 theme, 1809
``with-you-every-hour`` promo (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
