ST. VINCENT Radio St. Vincent Kingstown 705 kHz QSL and Audio


It was a pleasant surprise to receive and identify Radio St. Vincent on 705 khz for the first time at 05h00 UTC on the 19th April 1979 via the vintage Siera valve receiver and a modest 20 metre longwire antenna at Pinelands (a fair signal peak just before local sunrise at 05h11 UTC). 

I was fortunate to receive a QSL card in response to my reception report.

AUDIO



Radio St. Vincent identified as "705 Radio" followed by an enjoyable program of jazz music.
