SANTA HITS THE RADIOWAVES THIS COMING WEEKEND
Temperatures have dropped down to minus 34.5C ( -30.1F ) in Lapland
(OH9) while ever energized Santa Claus will have his final radio sessions
from the Far North, using his own Santa path this weekend around 14.225
kHz (Europe and North America) and 21.295 kHz (Asia and Europe) to greet
children and True Believers alike before taking his long journey to the
world. Today Santa=92s office is busy sending out 150 operating awards often
addressed to the children of radio families.

Santa Radio OF9X is active this weekend but OH9SCL (Santa Claus Land)
will stay on for a few more days after Christmas from the Far North of
Lapland =96 the village of Lankojarvi, near Pello (Location 66.44N, 24.21E)
with Kimmo, OH9MDV at the controls.
The members of Santa Team are here to wish everyone the very best of
Season's Greetings for Christmas 2012.
SECRET OF CHRISTMAS
Santa Claus! It is quite a remarkable name. When hearing this name,
everyone forms their own image of the white-bearded bringer of Christmas
cheer. Although we all have our own image of Santa Claus that may greatly
differ from others, one thing is certain: Santa Claus represents
Finnishness, warmth, joy and the magic of Christmas. But some secrets
prevail this Christmas; for instance, that Santa is a ham, works DX,
and lives under the largest antenna in the world.
Have you ever wondered how long Santa=92s beard is, or how the Northern
Lights in Lapland, Finland are created? Did you know this about Santa
in Lapland? There is a data archive maintained by Professor Elf that
will answer all the questions you care to raise. Mrs. Santa Claus
also wants to reveal some of her own secrets, so the Secret Recipe
File is published as a cookbook telling you how to prepare delicious
Yuletide delicacies. By the way, we bet not many people know that there
is indeed a Mrs. Santa Claus. Did you know that?
The white-bearded Old Man and Mrs. Santa Claus have known each other
from well before the first fells formed in the wilderness of Finnish
Lapland. Mrs. Santa Claus also lives at Korvatunturi and her job is
to keep the entire Korvatunturi neighborhood running while the Old Man
and the elves concentrate on their own important tasks. Mrs. Santa Claus
can also be met in the Municipality of Savukoski to which Korvatunturi
belongs, where she has her own cabin.
The story is reaching its climax this coming weekend, before Christmas
Day, when Mrs. Santa Claus is brought into the limelight upon her return
from a short stint in the United States and her picture is posted here
on this website. Her name will be made public for you to observe. This
is "Breaking News" since no one knew that Santa has a Lady Friend. And
what the heck was she doing in the United States just prior to Christmas?
So, be prepared, on Saturday and Sunday =96 this weekend. Slightly above
14.225 kHz, tune in to the famous Santa Radio, OF9X and listen. It is
only a few days to Christmas and the Santa magic is here. Ask the magic
question: what is the exact name of Santa=92s Lady Friend and why was she
in the U.S. this week?
