Huh?? Tuning across the shortwave bands in the evening with a cheap
pocket radio, almost all I hear are obviously American bible thumpers
telling you how to live your life and begging you to send money to a
U.S. address. Many at least claim to be broadcasting from a "studio"
somewhere in the U.S., and many have call-in telephone numbers that also
appear to be in the U.S.

So is the mere assertion that their intended audience is "international"
sufficient to make this legal, or are their transmitters in fact
offshore somewhere? Inquiring minds want to know...
