Receiver and antenna: MeiDuo Radio Receiver and Casette Recorder CP6941 with antenna on it.

Notes: This is a record of VOA Korean Service on the year 2002, I cannot remember the exact month and day of the record. But I think it is on the second quarter of that year.

The background has serious radio interference from the DPRK.

I do not speak Korean, and I did not invoke machine speech recognition to extract transcriptions. I would like to share, anyone who speaks Korean is welcome to interpret the content of the recording.
