You can get a lifetime subscription to satellite radio, along with a
receiver, for less than the cost of many worthy HF receivers (and a
hell of a lot less static). The BBC is trying to tell you

something.

Moot point; my receivers were paid for years ago,
and if I buy one, I can receive more than the BBC.
I also don't have to buy another license and equipment
if more than one person in the house wants to listen
at the same time.

The library, an mp3 player, a cd player, live365.com
and regular radio are enough for most musical tastes,
and I'm not a big fan of regular talk radio.

The BBC wants to tell me their viewpoint on the
world, just like anyone else does. I've learned after
many years to filter the news, because otherwise
I just raise by blood pressure. Is that a great tragedy?
No; there's too much that you hear that you can't do
anything about to make yourself worry about it.

Apparently English, Arabic, Spanish and Portuguese for South

America will be
reduced, if not more. I've not had time yet to peruse

everything.

You can listen to BBC World Service in Detroit, Michigan, United
States on the following radio stations and frequencies:

SIRIUS SATELLITE RADIO

XM SATELLITE RADIO

WUOM-FM 91.7


Two cost money to receive, and one begs for money twice a
year. Neither broadcast between 1.7-30 MHz.
