Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Nikos Mitrogiannopoulos, for sharing the following studio recording and notes:
Broadcaster: Rasdio Canada International (Shortwave Club)
Date of recording: October 06, 1973
Notes: This is the anniversary broadcast of the Radio Canada Shortwave Club for the celebration of the “World DX Friendship Year 1973.” The program features Bob MacGregor, announcer of Radio Canada, as well as announcers from Radio Netherlands, London, Stockholm, and New Zealand. Unfortunately, I could not make out their names. All of them are speaking live. Finally, there is an interview from Greece with Nikos Dendrinos, who was also the originator of the anniversary year.
