The Internet Telephone Products (ITP) was one of the
most interesting and
most visited pages on the WRG website, where a link was
provided to the
websites of most companies, suppliers and manufacturers
of internet telephony,
computer telephony, other internet products and equipment,
as well as
Gateway, a new product In digital technology, providing
access to internet
FX telephone, enabling even internet personal users to
establish telephone
communication from their homes or offices to any part
of the world. It
introduced this new industry and the new ITPs to the
consumers, providing
a bridge between the manufacturers and suppliers on the
one hand and the
internet users on the other hand. It also provided a
suitable site for
advertisements to sell such products.
Radio Stations Cooperation&Feedback
and Improper actions
At this point I would like to mention a few cases of
improper actions on the
part of some radio stations around the world vis-a-vis
WRG, contravening
basic principles of cooperation between them. One such
station, CKER,
which broadcasts on the FM band in the Edmonton, Alberta
area, is
sometimes referred to as the Ethnic Radio Station as
it broadcasts in 20
different languages. Despite the fact that a home page
on the website and
weekly updates were provided to them, and these services
continued free of
charge for about one year, they still refuse to provide
their listeners with
their home page address. Their current address on the
website is listed as
http://www.weeklyradioguide.com/cker.html
Another such station is Radio Asia-Canada
International, a powerful station
broadcasting on the SW. This was the first SW transmitter
run by the
private sector in Canada, which broadcasts its programs
to Asian listeners
in several Asian languages. It caught the attention of
amateurs and SW
radio listeners in the early part of the summer of 1998.
After numerous
E-mails and several voice mails addressed to the sation's
officials, I
eventually succeeded in establishing telephone contact
with one of their
operatives. When asked whether they had received my E-mails
and voice
mails, he denied receiving any E-mail and flatly refused
to provide me with
any information about their station.
Radio Deutsche Welle Persian Language
program
It is noteworthy that five E-mails were sent on the web
site to the
Persian language division of one of the world's larger
broadcasting stations,
Radio Deutsche Welle, concerning rectification of the
frquency and
broadcasting time of their Persian Language programs
as well as some
errors and ambiguities therein. However, not even one
E-mail response has
been received from Radio Deutsche Welle, which raises
the question as to
who the responsibility for the anti-democratic action
of blocking the
E-mail from Radio Guide or from Radio Deutsche Welle.
How do the false
claimants to "Canadian democracy" justify such
flagrant acts?
