Radio Poem: Kari from Lahti in Finland

In the town of Lahti, Kari resides, we connect every week through WhatsApp, side by side. Kari shares tales of the Lahti longwave transmitter, a historical site, now a museum, it once transmitted with splendor.

Towers high, reaching for the sky, broadcasting on 252 kHz, never shy. From 1927 till ’93, it served with pride, now a place where memories reside.

Our dear friend Kari, a loyal listener, tunes in every week to Radio Delta, a true winner. With various SDRs in Finland and sometimes in Sweden, he explores the airwaves, his passion unhidden.

A key player in Finnish Request, he takes part, sharing music that touches our hearts. Kari’s enthusiasm shines bright, his passion for radio, a guiding light.

And so, we send special greetings today the 3rd of December 2023, to our good radio friend Kari, we say, from Elburg to Lahti, our connection strong. In the world of radio, notes of friendship belong.

Dieter has a deep passion for history and radio, for 39 years, he’s collected tales from stations to and fro. Using his Kenwood R5000 and JRC NRD 535 DG receivers, he explores the shortwave, where he finds captivating transceivers.

With his self-built loop antenna, a loyal companion indeed, Dieter’s dedication to the world of radio is a true feat. He dives into the frequencies with great enthusiasm and zeal, bringing the waves to life, creating connections that feel so real.
