  1. Sir, firstly compliments on your DXing -
    gratified to find someone from the subcontinent; I came to this page after seeing your name on the DXLD bulletin.

    I am a frustrated listener of AIR's Urdu service :-( from the Bangalore area. The problems began after AIR-VV scrapped their daily 2100 GHazal program. With a Philips DL259 portable, I face frequent hassles in tuning into AIR Urdu during the 0630-0730 slot in any of their 60, 49, 31 or 25 m band frequencies.

    Could you suggest a good, locally available, radio and whether that would improve reception ?.

    thanks in advance,
    shahid.
