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......
