Dear radiofriends.

The long wait is finally over. Thank you so much for your patience. Here is your well-deserved reply to your reception report, and we are delighted to send you our very last QSL-card today, along with some information about our station's history. Incidentally, we received more than 100 reception reports for the final weekend. We thank you for your support of our radio project and say goodbye. As the saying goes, you should quit while you're ahead. It has been a great pleasure to go back on the air after 25 years of silence, but after a total of 50 years of activity, it's time to call it quits, even though many of you wish for our programs to continue. No, it's over now; "Germany's longest-serving Free Radio Station," RADIO TITANIC INTERNATIONAL, has sunk into the airwaves.

Yours truly MARK BROWN for RTI "

Radio Santa Fe Bogotà

Ricevuta conferma in 6,5 ore, da Radio Santa Fe Bogotà - Bolivia per ascolto del 31 ottobre 2025 dalle 05.00 alle 06.00 UTC a 1070 kHz AM.

Radio Santa Fe è una stazione radiofonica di Bogotà, Colombia, fondata il 1° aprile 1938 da Hernando Bernal Andrade e sua moglie Luisa Mahé.  La stazione trasmette notiziari e talk show, con alcuni programmi musicali. Bernal acquistò un sistema di comunicazione da un aereo precipitato, lo riparò e con la moglie comprò una casa a Centenario, un quartiere nel sud di Bogotà, dove iniziarono le prime trasmissioni di Radio Santa Fe.[2] Radio Santa Fe è stata una delle prime stazioni radio commerciali in Colombia. Dopo l'improvvisa morte di Bernal nel 1962, all'età di 42 anni, la signora Mahé e i loro quattro figli hanno assunto la direzione della stazione. Nel 2013, Radio Santa Fe ha firmato un accordo con Caracol Radio per entrare a far parte della rete radiofonica di breve durata Q'Hubo (Q'Hubo è un quotidiano scandalistico con distribuzione quasi nazionale). Alla fine del 2016 è tornata a essere «La 1070 AM de Radio Santa Fe», sempre gestita da Caracol Radio. Tra il 1998 e il 2013, Radio Santa Fe ha posseduto HJN86, una stazione FM di Pasto, sulla frequenza di 100,1 MHz. Nel 2013, con il suddetto accordo con Caracol Radio, è diventata affiliata a Tropicana Estéreo.

Ingela is born in Grimeton near Varberg in the Halland region of southern Sweden and her poetry frequently evokes her home landscape.

The complete poem

During the roll-out of SAQ, Ingela Strandberg read the complete poem in the transmitter hall:

Oh Great World! Oh Beautiful Earth Mother! We are listening to you and will do our best to be
good children. We appeal to the Mighty spirit of Peace: let freedom and human dignity rule.
Everything is created to live: humans, animals, forests, oceans, rivers. Everything is meant to
resist greed and mindless, senseless destruction.
May the governing, all those in authority, use their power to achieve peaceful co-existence.
May every nation count human value before divided landmasses.
Let us join with and use the same strong will-power to stop the bullets, silence the weapons,
shorten the hunger lines to zero.
May all children in the world know they are welcome. May they feel safe in safe homes.
May this not just be a dream, not just a hope. May we all in our farthest places and lives call
out the need for Peace!
Let this call be a global eternal echo! Let it fly over every fence and border!
May human dignity win in our lives, our hearts, and our lands!
– Ingela Strandberg

SAQ celebrated 100 Years

On a sunny day with a few showers, on July 2nd 2025, SAQ celebrated its 100 Year anniversary. There was a lot of visitors from Sweden and many other countries, together with the Alexander team and employees at the radio station, at the World Heritage Grimeton Radio Station.

Just this day, one hundred years ago, on July 2nd, 1925, the Grimeton radio station was officially inaugurated. Radio traffic had already begun on December 1st of the previous year, but now it was time for the official ceremony. Sweden’s King Gustav V, the inventor of the fantastic 200 kW generator and its massive multiple antenna, Ernst F.W. Alexanderson, and the head of the Radio Corporation of America, David Sarnoff, were together with several other prominent guests. The large and shiny Alexanderson generator was put into use and a message to the American President Calvin Coolidge was sent to the receiving station in Riverhead, Long Island, New York, USA. The American President responded and considered the new radio installations to be crucial for relations between Sweden and the USA. This began an era of communication from Grimeton’s radio station to the United States and other parts of the world for many decades.

Despite incredible technological developments at the station, the old Alexanderson alternator was left behind and was kept in working order by the station’s employees. Today it is the only remaining electromechanical transmitter in the world, and it is still working.

Now we were standing here, a hundred years after the inauguration, it was with great respect for the history and for the place and were very grateful to be part of all this.
