After the closure of the 1200 kilowatt mega transmitter at Kvitsøy here in Norway on 1314 kHz, hearing Radio Nacional de Venezuela on 1310 kHz has been dead easy. Radio Nacional de Venezuela is definitely the most commonly heard station on 1310 kHz and has been heard with good signals on all the Lista DX-peditions since then. I have also heard them at my home QTH several times. The 1310 kHz transmitter of RNV is located in the city of Barcelona and has a power of 10 kilowatts according to the WRTH.
Getting a reply from the station has not been easy, but yesterday I received a nice e-mail from Freddy R. Santos, Asistente de Producción at the Canal Internacional of Radio Nacional de Venezuela. Freddy also promises to send a QSL-card and some postcards by ordinary mail – nice!
