Your report of reception is confirmed by our station log as 559:30 PM (CST) to approximately 605:15 PM. We are indeed interested in this report, for reception over such distaaces is unusual.

KFAL operates with 250 watts into a quarter -wave guyed vertical, using a quarter -wave ground system. The transmitter is a Western Electric 310 -B using six 242C tubes in the final stage.

SEIFERD, VICEPRESIDENT AND GENERAL MANAGER 610 COLLEGE STREET SPRINGFIELD 3, MISSOURI KILOCYCLES April 1, 1950 To verify or not to verify, that is the question. Whether 'tis nobler in your mind to suffer, Wondering of your outrageous fortune in hearing our call, Or for us to take arms against a sea of reports, and By verifying, deplete them? To verify - to confirm -- Once more; and by confirmation say we end your Headaches, and the thousand natural cursings That a non -verifier is heir to - 'tis a confirmation Devoutly to be wished for. Tb verify - to confirm -- To verify! Perchance to be indefinitet Aye! There's the rub! For in a verification which is indefinite, what words may come From an unsuspecting DXer as he reads the phrase, 'Thanks for your Report - due to ad -lib announcing, we cannot verify -' must give us pause. There's the station that makes a calamity of so much DX. For who cannot say that listener Norman Maguire Has won the hard fought battle on 1340 and correctly Heard KICK? Who can delay in notifying this dial twister Of his merit, brought on by his patience on our miserable channel, When we were engaged in a special transmission on March 27, Who could fail to verify your reception at 2 :19-2:36 AM, CST, As you fought and cursed the all nighters covering our signal? But that our dread of the incapability of our Gates Equipment, that the 176' height cf cur Lehigh 'Amer, That our RCA speech equipment might fail - puzzles our engineers, And your reports make us bear in mind that we need not fear these things. For our good equipment does bring KICK to all, And thus, the native hue of the Kickapoo Prarie is Scattered all over these United States and Canada. And with great pleasure, and not pity, at this moment, With due regard, we realize your radio currents were tuned to Our call, K I C K! Your heard us then -..so know you now, Our station is Mutual - largest of the networks. Be all our programs remembered! (by) a Jack D. Rhea, NNRC - NRC Lee Baker, Chief 2ngineer
