Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Tom Laskowski, who notes:

Radio Canada International recorded on October 26, 1981. This is another from my archive of old recordings of Radio Canada International's Shortwave Listeners Digest. This contains part two of Larry Magne's interview with Perry Ferrel from Gilfer Shortwave (part one aired on October 19, 1981, see previous program) and Glenn Hauser's DX tips. Recorded using my Sony ICF-2001 likely on 15.325 MHz around 2100 UTC. The audio quality isn't the greatest. Enjoy!

Live off-air recording of the program "Rockin' with Raoul," produced and presented by Raoul van Hall in conjunction with PCJ Radio International and transmitted by WRMI, Radio Miami International, from its transmitter facilities at Okeechobee, Florida, on 28 November 2015 from 09:11 to 10:11 UTC on a shortwave frequency of 11580 kHz. The broadcast, the third and last of a special series, was directed to Europe and Southeast Asia using a 100 kW transmitter and an antenna beam azimuth of 44 degrees. The start of the program was delayed by 11 minutes due to some unknown technical problem at WRMI.

The transmission was received on a Tecsun PL-880 receiver with its built-in telescopic whip antenna indoors in Hanwell (just outside Fredericton), New Brunswick, Canada, in AM mode with 5.0 kHz RF filtering.
