So what if VOA doesn't broadcast directly to North America!?! I can hear VOA
regularly in my part of Canada and I can tell you that my location in North
America isn't a target area for most shortwave stations. Radio Australia doesn't
broadcast to North America yet plenty of shortwave listeners in North America do
hear the station. Shortwave transmissions don't halt at their target areas. You
never know what you will hear until you try.

useless. In other words, without knowing everything that Jay tried, the
information was useful.


So where is a VOA transmission directed(!) to NE-america?
There is NONE. So what chance would be to get VOA there?
