I'm travelling to SE Asia shortly (Thailand) and have been scouring
the 'net for frequencies to listen to English speaking broadcasts on
my run of the mill portable radio. It cost 20 quid so isn't a DX800f2
or whatever, just a simple FM/AM/SW radio so apologies to you experts
out there.

I've got BBC and Radio Australia but surely there are more? Also
there is about 10 metres or calble to clip onto the telescopic aerial
- where should I put this cable please? (clean answers preferred).

English broadcasts listed he

Look on the left for schedules in different formats.
In each is a target area for the broadcast (see "notes" in the schedule)
The "note" saying "As" is target Asia

Clip the cable to the aerial and get as much of the rest of it as you can near
a window. Even tape it to a window from top to bottom. Hang it out the window.
Go outside away from all buildings and electronic interference and loop the cable
over a tree limb.

Many thanks for the info. The webpage is blank though??

Prime Time Shortwave anomaly. There is a presently a problem with uploading
files to Prime Time Shortwave where uploaded files overwrite the original
page with a blank page. Due to this the home (or index) page is currently
not available. You'll only get a blank page. This is only a temporary
situation. All the other pages of the website are unaffected. To go to the
website I recommend going to http://www.primetimeshortwave.com/time.html
You will be able to get to all the good pages from there. This issue will
be solved as quickly as possible. Sorry for any inconvenience.

I am able to upload files to Prime Time Shortwave again without a problem so
the home (index) page is back and the website is working correctly again.
