Via a recording.  RTI was in progress when my recording started. RTI shut down a 0243.  Noise and frequent fading made listening difficult.  35332 was average for the broadcast.  I believe that they gave both a mailing address and an email address more than once, but I never was able to discern either because of a Techno voice or the noise and fading.  The mailing address was Wuppertal, Germany.

Oops.  Wrong broadcast.  The one that I heard was earlier on the 12th.
