RADIO FREE ASIA RELEASES 19TH ANNIVERSARY QSL

Radio Free Asia (RFA) announces the release of our 19th Anniversary QSL card. RFA’s first
broadcast was in Mandarin on September 29, 1996 at 2100 UTC. RFA is a private, nonprofit
corporation broadcasting news and information to listeners in Asian countries where full,
accurate, and timely news reports are unavailable. Acting as a substitute for indigenous free
media, RFA concentrates coverage on events occurring in and/or affecting Burma, Cambodia,
Laos, North Korea, the People’s Republic of China, and Vietnam. RFA does not express
editorial opinions but provides news, analysis, commentary, and cultural programming in the
languages of the country of broadcast. This is RFA’s 59th QSL design and will be used to
confirm all valid RFA reception reports from August 1-December 31, 2015.


Created by Congress in 1994 and incorporated in 1996, RFA broadcasts in Burmese, Cantonese,
Khmer, Korean to North Korea, Lao, Mandarin (including the Wu dialect), Vietnamese, Tibetan
(Uke, Amdo, and Kham), and Uyghur. RFA strives for accuracy, balance, and fairness in its
editorial content. As a ‘surrogate’ broadcaster, RFA provides news and commentary specific to
each of its target countries, acting as the free press these countries lack. RFA broadcasts only in
local languages and dialects, and most of its broadcasts comprise news of specific local interest.
More information about Radio Free Asia, including our current broadcast frequency schedule, is
available at www.rfa.org.

RFA encourages listeners to submit reception reports. Reception reports are valuable to RFA as
they help us evaluate the signal strength and quality of our transmissions. RFA confirms all
accurate reception reports by mailing a QSL card to the listener. RFA welcomes all reception
report submissions at http://techweb.rfa.org (follow the QSL REPORTS link) not only from
DX’ers, but also from its general listening audience. If you have a smart phone, feel free to use
