QSL from KKOL 1300kHz
I received a QSL card from KKOL 1300kHz, Seatle. I reported my reception to this station at the beginning of December. I was not sure that KKOL has its own card or letter as QSL, so I enclosed a PFC, which is a card desigined by myself, with my report. This is the way I usually do when sending reports because it is not easy to get QSL from stations in US.

SONY ICF-5800
My first shopping this year is a shortwave radio. It's Sony's ICF-5800. This is a memorable radio for me. Because I got to know a hobby of shortwave listening through a TV commercial of this model more than thirty years ago. Catching signals of Radio Australia and BBC with this radio fascinated me very much because it made me feel that I was connected to other countries through a tiny radio.
The one I purchsed was well restored by experts and show excellent features which are more than what I expected. Audio quality is good and it's easy to operate. On top of that, the overall design fits to my favor.
