David,

Consider the Read Profile of someone who Reads and Posts
to Rec.Radio.Shortwave - They are NOT your average Radio Listener.

Next consider the Listening Profile of someone who Buys a
GE Superadio to Listen to the Radio Every Day and All Night
and again - They are NOT your average Radio Listener.

Then consider the Listening Profile of someone who simply
owns a Car / Truck and Listens to the Radio in it while they
are in it Driving down the Road of Life - Now "They" ARE
your very average casual Radio Listener with :
* One-Eye-on-the-Road
* One-Ear-on-the-Radio
* One-Hand-on-the-Steering- Wheel
* Half a Brain Focused on Traffic
And with the other half of everything just plain doing
something else as they Cruise-Down-the-Road-of-Life !


well that is how i see it ~ RHF
