ahem. let me point out a simple fact:

the BBC does not even broadcast to north america. kinda forgot that in

Mark Byford's statement actually came AFTER the
BBC had decided to stop direct SW to USA.

if you'll permit to say:

Bull****.

the BBC quit broadcasting to NA several years ago.

He made
lots of comments on the fact that they believed FM
rebroadcast of BBC was reaching the right target,
and that was one of them. They even claimed that
their US audience numbers were increasing due to
listeners on FM.


which had zip to do with the thread at all. the BBC does not use FM on
shortwave. those of us who DO shortwave kinda know that...
