KICKER: INDIAN AMATEUR'S RECOGNITION WAS IN THE CARDS
STEPHEN/ANCHOR: Finally, we all know that listening to the radio pays
off, sometimes even more than keying the mic. For one ham in India,
however, four decades of listening have paid off with a lifetime
achievement. Here's Jim Meachen, ZL2BHF, with that story.
JIM M: Congratulations to Jose Jacob, VU2JOS. Jose, the assistant
director of the National Institute of Amateur Radio in Hyderabad, India,
is an accomplished DXer of a very different sort. His hobby, even before
amateur radio has been broadcast DXing, or BCDXing. More than four
decades later, his BCDXing has landed him in the Limca Book of Records
for 2019. Jose has received the most certificates of reception - QSL
cards - from stations that are part of All India Radio: a total of 132.
His QSL cards came from short wave, medium wave, and VHF FM stations,
beginning with his first confirmed reception in 1976 when he was 17.
For Amateur Radio Newsline, I'm Jim Meachen, ZL2BHF.
