New Radio Transmitter Arrived

We are rejoicing in the Lord! Our new radio transmitter, tuning unit and many other parts that arrived in Lima on December 31 were released from customs and are now sitting at our radio plant.
The equipment arrived in this truck which sits in the middle of the radio plant. Our customs agent and his wife are on the right.

This equipment is very delicate and was handled carefully. Jorge, our caretaker is on the left. Our agent is on the right in yellow.
It was a big shipment as you can see.
Our customs agent and his wife did a great job. We thank the Lord for him, his hard work and his integrity. His wife was right there by his side helping all the way.
From left to right are: Edward (our associate), myself, and Oscar (our customs agent).

The new transmitter should be powerful enough to cover every block of Lima with a clear signal. It will take a few months to get things installed and get to the point where we can transmit with a higher power (25,000 watts). Our goal is to cover all of Lima and beyond by the end of May. This is a big step forward.

We want to thank all of you for your prayers, interest, and sacrifice in giving. So many have had a part in this gigantic project. With all of our heart, Ruth and I want to express our deep gratitude.
