All this hang wringing, sky is falling, end of the world view of
Shortwave Radio is hard to believe. There is more to listen to on
Shortwave Radio today, than at any other time in current history. No
I don't listen to the BBC's or CBC's or other propaganda tools for big
governments. I listen to Pirate Broadcasters, who give pure,
unedited, opinions and views, you won't find on the mega-watt
mouthpieces. The best production, the best variety, the best programs
that you will hear on Shortwave, are on the pirate bands.
Yes, you will have to put some effort into hearing the Pirates, but
the payoff is far superior to anything the government mouthpieces have
to offer. Europe has dozens of Pirates in the 6200-6300khz range.
Please you Euro-pirates, post some freqs here. Here's a chance to
grab some listeners who hadn't thought of Pirates over BBC. US
Pirates are found on 6925-6950-6955-6975khz on weeknights and
weekends.
So stop your bellyaching about the loss of mega-watt government
propaganda mouthpieces and start listening to some honest, unedited,
radio, that out shines the commercials boys by a mile.
THERE IS PLENTY TO LISTEN TO ON SHORTWAVE! The pirates in North
America and Europe do a far better job of entertaining than all the
big government approved crap that pollutes the airwaves. You can find
