Most of the stations carried by the World Radio Network are also available via old fashioned shortwave, ;-). If that's something you haven't used for 20 years, check out the field today. Modern digitally-tuned radios make it as easy as tuning the channels on a TV. Propagation remains a problem. Some stations are not well received (depending on where you are). Here in the middle of the USA, stations that put in reliably good signals include Radio Netherlands, Radio Canada, the BBC, Deutsche Welle, Radio Australia (mornings only), Radio Sweden (mornings only), Radio Havana, and more. My favorites? Radio Netherlands for their documentaries. Radio Canada for their news. Radio Havana for their music. The Christian Science Monitor has operated a powerful station for years with Monitor Radio on all day, Monday - Friday (religion on weekends). Unfortunately, the CS Church has decided to sell. No telling who will buy it. For more info on shortwave, check out my website. Go to the References and Resources menu. You will find links to some really good shortwave websites.
