Dear Kermit :

Thanks a lot for your swell letter which arrived here a

few days ago....We were very glad to hear from a listener so far

away....We have checked our broadcast schedule with the inform-

ation contained in your letter and find it matches O.K.

You are not the first in your state to pick us up, though,

as we have received reports from various DXers throughout that

part of the country....We credit it to our frequency and not our

power....At present, we are rated at only five hundred watts,

although we expect to have a thousand within a matter of a few

weeks.... Then we hope to move out of 140 to a more civilized

frequency...It might interest you to know that on the same day

as your report arrived, we received one from a DX fan in New

Zealan.d....That is the sixth we have had from "Down Under."

We have also heard from listeners in Mexico, Alaska, and a good

many of the eastern states and provinces.... It seems strange

that we should cover such vast distances at that time of night,

when we can't even obtain full coverage of our own Vancouver

Island, on which we are situated....

Thanks again for your letter, old man, here's hoping this

letter will take its place in your ection...

Your. / inc., ely ern Groves (Chief Operator)

Dear Kermit:

This will confirm your report of reception from this station. Your log is correct and coincides with the program schedule.

C.H.U.B. is an independent, privately owned Station, and we do not have any network affiliations. The staff consists of sixteen men and women. The announcer to whom you listened was Gordon Theedom, and incidentally, I've asked Gordon to acknowledge this letter (Your letter) on his program, and to dedicate a musical selection to you in appreciation of your writing. The time we've chosen is 11:45:00 P.S.T, Monday, December 11th, 1950.

4 In conclusion may I extend to you our

sincere appreciation and trust that you will again at some future date drop us a line and let us know if you heard your dedication.

Very truly yours,
