Except that the US domestic stations are almost all religious
fundamentalists.


Technically, they're aren't necessarly fundamentalists, but they are
evangalists. But there's a wide gulf between the views of such
fundamentalists as James Lloyd and George W. Gentry.


About as interesting as static.

I'm interested in religious views. I know learning religion from SW radio
is like learning physics from Warner Brothers cartoons. And it can be just
as entertaining.

But there's much more than evangelists. Conspiratorialists, Health food
pushers, Gold Bugs, Con Artists, Free Thinkers.

I long for the days of
the big guns of the cold war: Radio Moscow, BBC, Radio Sofia, etc.

Ultimately, there's a chance something wonderful may happen if the old line
international broadcasters go away. The international broadcast bands will
be nearly empty, and they won't be refilled any faster than the other
currently underutilixed SW bands. Hobby broadcasters could start
broadcasting, and the governments might not even care if there's no
international broadcasting to be interfered with.
