AND NOW . . . A 150,000-WATT SUPER-POWER STATION!
I have just received a long-distance telephone call from
Texas, offering us the opportunity to send our Message out over
another Mexican station, just recently increased to 150,000 watts!
This is such a vital opportunity that I must send out
another BULLETIN at once to submit the proposition to all you Co-
Workers, and I ask you to consider this carefully, prayerfully!
Last Fall, the opportunity came to go on XELO, the
100,000-watt station across the border from El Paso, Texas, at
Juarez, Mexico. We were offered the best time of the week--8:PM,
Mountain time, at 800 on the dial. This was at the time the most
powerful station either in or at the border of the United States
---twice the power of our largest American stations. By sheer
FAITH I grasped this opportunity although it meant increasing the
expenses of our entire work by 50%! Few of our Co-workers knew
what a burden of responsibility I was assuming, in order to send
the last Message of this Age to additional hundreds of thousands
of souls. We have had a tight squeeze, financially, but God has
blessed this large undertaking and made it possible for us to
stay on this great station. It has DOUBLED our mail, which means
it has doubled the number of people reached with God's Message---
DOUBLED our vast radio audience---DOUBLED our power for good.
Now in the meantime, another great Mexican station, XEG,
1050 on the dial, has increased its power from its former 50,000
watts---equal to the great super-power stations of our largest
cities in the United States---to THREE TIMES THAT POWER, now
150,000 watts! This station, now even more powerful than XELO,
uses a directional antenna, beaming its full 150,000 watts
direction North and North-East, in the direction of Chicago and
Detroit. By this process, it comes in, within the territory upon
which it is specially beamed, with even MORE than its actual
power of 150,000 watts.
This means that it comes in like a local station in those
most-populous middle-western states of Illinois, Wisconsin,
Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Tennessee, and Kentucky, Arkansas,
Missouri, Texas and Louisiana. It will add many thousands of new
listeners, too, in states farther east, or west, of this section---
such as Mississippi, Alabama, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, New
York, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, etc.,---all very populous
