NHK declined to send a QSL card for a reception report on receiving their domestic radio broadcast.

But they were kind enough to provide this link:

For which they do QSL

The fcc rid in ww2 would have killed for that coverage of NHK. the best they got till they got closer to mainland Japan was a bev installed in the crater of a temporarily inactive volcano on Hawaii.
Some high US government muckity mucks wanted to know what the Japanese government was saying to their own people.

You're confusing the the Radio Intelligence Division (RID) with the Foreign Broadcast Monitoring Service (FBMS) later known as the Foreign Broadcast Information Service (FBIS).
See page 260 of Battle Of Wits: The Complete Story of Codebreaking in World War II by Stephen Budiansky as an example of RID's amateurish performance in Hawaii.
