You definitely got to question a guy who's in a hobby he thinks is
constantly ending.
Shortwave listening will go on indefinitely. International
broadcasting via HF is the part that's rolling around on the beach,
gasping for air.

I'm enjoying the airplanes on 6673 right now.

International HF broadcasting has a long while to go yet, not least because
it is CHEAP.
It is cheaper than satellites and cheaper than DRM. Radio Wantok Light is a
fine example. People can hear this with a $5 chinese built portable radio.
XM Radio is not in this part of the world yet.
