And other places. I listen daily and really enjoy the programs. I am especially interested in Romanian culture, history and current events with an emphasis on Romania\u2019s feelings towards the recent Russian aggression and NATO participation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Robert Krolikowski, USA: \u201cDespite the deficiencies in reception, I was able to make out portions of the contents of your broadcast. There was that interesting feature about the role that the Danube River had played in developing the Romanian economy. It was mentioned, too, that this particular river also has had an impact upon those neighbouring nations located near Romania. Another feature had to do with a certain prominent and wealthy family who had influenced life in Romania. It is an example of wealthy people who sometimes have a way of becoming popular and thereby using their status to influence the public in a beneficial way. I look forward to tune in to your spring-summer broadcasts to North America.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>John Fisher, USA: \u201cI am sending a reception report to you towards membership in the RRI Listeners Club. I also wish to thank you for the beautiful QSL cards which you recently sent me. They are really nice! I always enjoy your broadcasts, as they are a great source of news on both Romania, and what takes place from a European perspective. I hope you will continue to broadcast on short wave. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Please accept my best wishes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Hans Verner Lollike, Denmark: \u201cDear friends at RRI! Thank you for the beautiful QSL card I received today. Your Black Sea contest is of course full of wonderful memories. Just to mention one: one day the weather was really bad. Strong wind, black clouds on the black sea. I did take my raincoat and warm clothes and walk along the beach all the way to Mangalia. In sunshine the beach would be full of tourists, but it was almost empty. It was an impressive panorama.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Atsuhisa Kageyama, Japan: \u201cThis report is the first about the new schedule. Your reception condition was quite good here in Osaka, so I wanted to inform you as soon as possible. I will be very happy if this report is useful for your station. During this reception, I was able to hear many Romanian stories. There were history shows, a feature on energy projects and news. I also heard some popular songs in Romania, which sound very nice to me. I usually listen to your English language programme every Saturday and Sunday morning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Dmitry Zhavoronkov, Russia: \u201cI listen to your radio constantly. I usually listen to short wave and via the internet. Your program, I think it is very interesting and informative. I especially like your information programs, from which I learn about the events taking place in Romania.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Lars Bergstrom, Sweden: \u201cHello, radio friends! At this very moment I\u2019m sitting by my shortwave receiver tuning in to your broadcast. I have been listening to Radio Romania from time to time since 1970. I tend to listen more often nowadays, as Radio Romania has nice programmes and is one of the few European stations left on the shortwave band. Please keep up your service! It\u2019s a real joy to be able to tune in to your broadcasts. The Sunday programme mix is very enjoyable, so I mostly listen to that programme.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Dominik Biech, Poland: \u201cDear friends at RRI, first of all, I would like to thank you very much for answering my last question. It\u2019s been a while since I have written my last letter. I had very little time for radio listening in the recent months, but I have been tuning in to your broadcasts at least once a week. I especially enjoyed the music programmes, mainly those dedicated to jazz.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rajdeep Das, Kolkata, India: \u201cRRI programs are always my favourites, and whenever I can manage time (especially during weekend mornings) I tune in.
