RNW message site actually had someone APOLOGIZE for getting mad at
them for trashing SW broadcasts to North America.
Ooooo does baby wantum botoo ??
Their survey is dubious at best. Appealing for people to E-mail them
to ask they keep broadcasting is idiotic.Scientific evidence indicates
at best only 10 % of those in a survey even bother to answer. What
other media asks anyone, if you don't reply to our survey we may cut
you off, and if result doesn't please the "bean counters" (those
plagues upon a plague") we will slavishly follow their bidding and
trash broadcasts.Your long SW schedule (RNW) can afford at least an
hour a day English broadcast to North America, if not more. I can
hardly wait for my local AM radio station to threaten me with a cutoff
(go see us on the Web) Now isn't that incomprensibly stupid ?? Well it
Ain,t going to happen either on AM, FM or Sirius or XM satellite,
certainly not where English languge programming is concerned.
BBC, DW and RNW are being big sucks crying in their beer. And I don't
want to hear any of their guff that no enough people listen to SW,
because it JUST AIN'T SO.

Of course its true. Radio listening in general is declining, SW listening
in particular is about dead. Do you think all SW stations cutting
back/dropping programs to North America is a coincidence? No one is
listening in the U.S. anymore. Everyone is listening to crystal clear
internet radio, satellite radio or ipods. No one cares about noisy, static
filled, fading SW broadcasts anymore. That is 100 year old technology, and
its time has passed.

All of the big SW stations have nice, clear internet feeds now. Do what I
do, listen there. For that real, nostalgic feeling, I feed the internet
audio signal into one of my Part 15 AM transmitters, and rebroadcast it to
my tube radios.

Yes, it was cool 40 years ago when I got my first SW radio, and I now have
more radios than you can imagine. The only thing I use them for nowadays
is to receive my own broadcasts from my own transmitters, and listening to
football or baseball games. Other than that, radio sucks big time these
days.

PBS/NPR "Public" Educational FM Radio Stations

carried the "Today's World News from Your World
Over-Night"© Program and all the major {Top 100]
US Metro Areas were covered then America would
be getting the Message of Shortwave via the FM

indeed Dying -but- The Un-Cut Message of Shortwave
can expanded in the USA via the Public FM Radio

They do not.

Several L. A. area NPR stations run the World Service overnight, without
any mandates, from Roy Fisk or anyone else.

Dave - D'Oh! Da World Service from the BBC
is only One Voice and is Not the Many Voices
of the World. The BBC-WS is a good start;
but it is just a start.

Start 1. BBC = England/UK
+ 2. RNW & DW & RFI & REE = EuroLand
+ 3. CBC & RMI North America
+ 4. CRI & NHK = Asia
+ 5. VOR = Russian Federation
+ 6. AIR = India
+ 7. Channel Africa = Africa
+ 8. Radiobrás & RHC = South America Carribean
+ 9. KOL + Radio Cairo = Middle East

again shortwave radio it's about hearing the
un-cut and un-edited message from the source
and hearing 'many' sources around the world ~ RHF

Well, the word you really want is 'loser', not 'looser' (the opposite of
tighter) that you have used.

Usually, I don't want to be the "Spelling Police", but it's just too
hard to resist when someone accuses another of being dumb, stupid,
whatever, and then uses the wrong word in -their- reply. Keep it up and
others just might suspect that -you- are the "looser". ;-)

P.S.

Before you fire off a nasty reply, please appreciate that I am just
trying to save you the embarrassment of shooting yourself in the foot.
