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

good shortwave websites. My URL is
