Only thing I see missing is VOA in the US of A section. Should I
demand my money back from Larry Magne? That's quite a big ommission
for my area.

For my prize you can send me an Eton E100 so I can look for VOA
myself.

John Plimmer, MONTAGU South Africa

For the USA I don't see WBCQ listed either. In any event VOA is not a
country and the USA is still represented. Your answer made me go back *
and compare. I found there were a number of changes.

Missing from "worldwide broadcasts in english" section in Passport 2009
from what was in 2008?

Spain
Israel
Jordan
Argentina
Libya
Singapore
Malaysia
Philippines
Saudi Arabia

There is still one more very popular country missing that I did not
list. Care to try again?

There is also one country added to this section for 2009 missing from
2008. Care to guess what it is?

"worldwide broadcasts in english" + "very popular country"

BBC-WS -or- RA-ABC -or- RNZI -or- Canada
would be the most likely ones . . .
