This is an exciting radio. If they were able to add DRM reception,
this would be a superb choice for the future of radio.
The future of radio, especially shortwave radio, is cutting costs. I
suppose DRM would be helpful to the extent that it would reduce the
electric bill at the transmitter.
Most broadcasters have found cutbacks in languages and programming
effective cost cutters. Some have pulled the plug on SW broadcasting.
Dave Frantz of WWRB likes SSB for reduced transmission costs.
And, of course, the "fact" that the feds are monitoring everyone on the
Internet so that the guv'ment can track down all of us spurious individuals
with Operation NotShortWave.
Also, acoording to our usual stoned sources, there is an upcoming event which
will be one of the most horrible things that has ever happened and from which
no one will recover, if our sources are to be trusted when they're babbling
like a mountain stream.
Just when you thought it was safe to go back on the grid: Y3K is on the way.
You'd best prepare now so that you won't be desperate when the new millennia
gets closer.
Also, Planet Y is getting closer and, even as I (attempt to) type this
missive there are rumors afoot (if not at hand) that Planet Z is hurtling
this way.
