PHONES AT EMBANGWENI

From the USA, all calls to Malawi require the use of the 'country code' of 265. That means that a normal way of calling into Malawi would be to dial 011 265 and then the telephone number.

Remember when calling Malawi from the USA, they are 6 hours ahead of Eastern Daylight Time.  Malawi is on GMT+2 time. DO NOT Call them at late hours there just because it is a good time in the USA. At 6 pm EDT, it is midnight in Malawi.  At 6pm PDT - it is 3am in Malawi.  The best time to call is usually in the morning or early afternoon in the USA.

I have removed Martha Sommers phone number from the list below due to excessive odd hour calls.  If you have a need for her number, you can email Jim Nussbaumer at jim@nussbaumers.net - please include your phone number.

Some of the phone numbers at Loudon Station (Embangweni) include:

ADDRESSES AT EMBANGWENI

 Embangweni does have an email connection - but be aware that it is not a high speed connection.  It is not even a normal Dial-up connection.  It is actually a special connection via HAM radio.  The email goes to a server in South Africa and then is sent via a HAM radio link to Embangweni on demand.  It is very slow but is effective when it works.  As a result, if you need to use this address, please DO NOT send anything very large - such as pictures or large files.  It should be used very sparingly - and certainly no commercial messages.

The address is   7Q7JN[AT]winlink.org   (replace the [AT] with @). Since this is for email for anyone at the Embangweni station, please put the person's name in the SUBJECT line when you send something.
