The Voice of Quito

Clarence wanted a more powerful transmitter that would expand the station’s potential audience.

Engineer Victoriano Salvador designed a 250-watt transmitter using parts of the original transmitter. However, as a devout Catholic, Victoriano refused to actually build it since HCJB was an evangelical radio station.

Clarence became actively involved in building the redesigned transmitter, which they nicknamed “the Voice of Quito.”
