Anybody else getting the BBC on a regular basis? Especially in the midwest?
I am interested in news and general interest type programming.

Mark, is west coast SWL difficult anyway? That's what I've heard.


The sad fact is that the BBC has, in just the last year or two, cut out
shortwave broadcasting aimed at North America and you can't get reliable
reception of a lot of the programs in their schedule.

For example, the only time I can pick up their "World of Music", a
half hour of world music by Charlie Gillett is in the dead of
night on a frequency (15360 kHz, from Singapore, aimed at Japan) that
will quit working as the seasons change.
