Hi,

As someone new to the hobby of shortwave listening I am surprised by the
quality of some of the programming available but hampered in my inability to
unearth them. What I would like to ask is if anyone knows of a resource that
reviews radio programs that are favorites among listeners? For example, the
most recent issue of "Passport to World Band Radio" has a section entitled
"First Tries: Ten Easy Catches" that alerted me to Radio Taiwan
International's "Jade Bells and Bamboo Pipes" and Radio Canada's "The World
this Weekend." There must be a number of shows that more seasoned listeners
would recommend and I would welcome any individual suggestions or guidance
to a more comprehensive listing of quality shows.

Thank you for your help, Steve.

Note: If there are a number of responses I will be glad to assemble a list
and post it
