thank you for your post........we have been trying to obtain an application form for a SW station from the FCC for more than 2 years.......there has been no response.......so, we contacted our U.S. Senator.......he wrote back after approx. 4 months that his Office was not having much success either in obtaining the requested blank application forms for a SW radio station.....then, something came in the mail from the Senator......TOTALLY wrong application forms!!!.......the word shortwave or its analogue was never mentioned on these wrong forms......they appeared to be some kind of application for either an AM or FM station.......we have kind of given up on the idea altogether because of this shielding mechanisms, we feel, are in place.......it is no surprise that non-christian SW stations are not there.......it is no accident that only christian stations are there.........it is no accident that the minority radio stations are harassed to the hilt by the FCC that uses duplicitous set of rules in how they look at these licencees......we remind you of the GE fiasco that is posted on the Internet.......every time we file a grivance against the apartheid policies of the government, we are attacked by mobs of people asking, "give us the proof"......."give us the proof of massacre of the native Indians and give us the proof of slavery"........we do not have the time nor the resources nor inclination to consume ourselves in providing some proof (as in Mark Furman tapes).......all we ask is that the FCC mails us a blank application form for a SW radio station.......lets forget EVERYTHING else because what goes around comes around........do U'all think that we have no brains and so you can talk down to us like this?........we are some of the highly educated citizens who would like to be let alone and we would like our prayers telecast to our children 'cuzz we do not have the infrastructure like the Christians do......we do not have temples that are readily accessible to our children......many of us do use christian churches for prayers.......soooooo, the bottom line is whether a blank application form can be provided to our religion or just say no...... kk007@aol.com
