they're going to satellite radio and FM relays in cities where the rich
and powerful congregate (there's one in San Francisco but not in
Sacramento; I doubt very much that Omaha will ever have any BBC
programming).

Where is the BBC World Service FM relay in San Francisco? The only FM
presence I am aware of in the area is KQED FM, and that's just one
hour or so of news per day, isn't it?

From what I've heard, KALW, the SF school district station, broadcasts
Newshour at 2pm. I've never actually heard it here, but I read that in
the Chronicle in an article making fun of the BBC's style.

As I thought - it's not a 24-hour-a-day sort of thing. (KQED
simulcasts BBCWS Mon-Fri at 9-10 PM and 1-2 AM (except that Friday
night/Saturday morning is only 1:30-2 AM), and weekends 3-4 PM. (The
online stream also carries BBCWS when the over-the-air station covers
something that they're not allowed to have on the stream for whatever
reason. I remember listening to KALW broadcast old "The Goon Show"
episodes when I was in college 20 years ago.)

Actually, a number of cable systems in the San Francisco area have BBC
World Service 24 hours a day if you hook the cable up to a radio with
an external FM antenna connection (the service is provided by C-SPAN).
I don't remember any show ever being removed from the broadcast
(including the 1990 World Cup Final - I for one listened to it on BBC
while watching the SIN/Univision broadcast with the TV sound turned
down, rather than the ABC broadcast (which had commercials at the
time)). (I have a feeling I wasn't alone; the BBC would not broadcast
the 1994 final except on a special frequency to a small part of the
world.)

Yes, they have. Don't have a link at hand, but they have indeed
indicated in the
past that they are more interested perhaps in reaching the elites
who have a
hand in shaping policy, etc.

You'd have to go back and research the shortwave literature.

There's a reference in the 2003 Passport, page 81. The
current head of the BBC sniffs at the idea of wanting
to be heard by Detroit automobile workers.

That's what I was referring to.

Hey Running Dog,

You seem to have the font for your newsposts set very, very tiny. It's
very hard to read. It could a problem on my end, but I don't think so.
Everyone else's posts come over with type twice or more the size of
yours.

You might want to look into your settings.

I found the "Font" drop down menu and changed the font to 15. That
should be better on your eyes, although it makes the spacing of my
replies look funny.

Wow! It didn't make any difference.
Oh well, since I'm the only one complaining, I guess you don't need to
worry about it too much.

Oh well, sorry, must be something I can't fix then, because I tried.

I think it's got something to do with newsreader incompatibility.

It's the font that Leonard's newsreader is using for the ISO-8859-2
character encoding.

The header in your message is setting the encoding to ISO-8859-2,
the character set for eastern and central European languages.
English normally uses ISO-8859-1.

$68 wholesale. There is a foundation.

AM radio and analog TV aren't relevant.

This would be why 6 of the top 10 billing stations in the USA are AM? 17 of
the top 40 stations? Including the second and 4th highest billers in the US?


Participitation in the money circus proves nothing, other than the
