I would rate the international broadcasters as follows, based on
reception quality and quality of sound. Everyone else chime in:


1. Radio Netherlands
2. CRI
3. Radio Australia
4. RNZI
5. BBC


not ranked:
Deutsche Welle: A non-entity on radio these days, has pulled back too
much transmissions.


Voice of Russia: Broadcasts, but reception is absolutely terrible,
and their audio equalization has too much bass such that even when
reception is good, it is difficult to clearly understand.


I get them all just fine on the Sirius. I like to listen to the Coast
Guard on the HF.


I only see the BBC listen on the Sirius website.

CRI? Not much programing there I want. I rank Radio Australia and the
BBC equally, with the Netherlands a very close second. I have to
admit I haven't listen to RNZI much.
