Hello - One and All,
* * * IT"S SOAP BOX TIME * * *
It is nice to Read All of Your Shortwave Reception Reports
)
And I Am A "KNOB SPINNER" - So "When I Read The Reports"
I usually 'Tune' a Shortwave Radio and try and see if I can Hear
what you have Heard Too - Right 'here' in the SF Bay Area

IMHO - It Would Be Nice - It Is Good Form to Give a
" POINT - OF - REFERENCE " !
Posting Shortwave Reception Reports to the NewsGroup
? WHO You Heard ?
- ID of Station /Broadcaster
- Maybe Program Content (What?)
- Frequency(s) ? in kHz -or- MHz
? When You Heard It ? { Time Heard ? UTC = GMT }
? Quality of Signal { S-Units / RST Report / SINPO Code }
? Where You Are ? { Point-of-Reference }
+ What Radio / Receiver was Used ?
+ How ? = What Antenna Used ?

- YOU REALLY ARE A KOOK!
IBOCcrock - You are most eloquent when you say the least.
IBOCcrock - OK let me get this right
Post a Shortwave Radio Reception Report (SWR3)
to a Shortwave Radio Newsgroup and Listing the :
1 - Frequency kHz /MHz
2 - The UTC Time XX:xx
3 - Your Location City, State, Country
Makes Me a "Kook" in your opinion
-dang- I Don't Think So ! ~ RHF
Plus for you this was 'original' and not a Cut-and-Paste
of someone else's original content.
(OT) : IBOCcrock "YOU REALLY ARE A KOOK !"

Honestly IBOCcrock - Except for the Chinese Spammers
You and Your Sock-Puppets are the next real source of
Non Shortwave Radio related Messages posted here on

true theme which is ANTI "Old Media" meaning Free
