Carlos is Making an Illustrated Radiofax Scrapbook

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor Carlos Latuff, who writes:

Since the pandemic, I’ve been receiving news in Brazil from the Japanese agency Kyodo News, transmitted by radiofax. From now on, I’ll print the radiofax and paste them into this scrapbook, illustrating one or more news items.

I love it, Carlos! You’ll fill that book quickly with the number of decodes you log each year!
