Hello, and while I realize this ng is for the HF radio band, I'd like to


point out that VOR is still alive and well on the MW band at 1390 kHz in


the metro Washington DC area. Sincerely,






The RRS newsgroup is about DC to Daylight communications with


electromagnetism, there are no frequency boundaries. The article about


RT is BS. The station is still plugging away.




Hello, and I stand corrected since I haven't been on this ng much. The

term "shortwave" most often is taken (at least in the US) to refer to

the 1.7 MHz to 3 MHz and the HF (3 MHz to 30 MHz) portions of the EM

spectrum.



One additional comment is that Russia Today (RT) TV english language

broadcasts, like BBC World News and China Central TV, are also available

on many cable TV channels as well as XM/Sirius radio. Funny how the

hosts on those non-BBC channels often have British accents ;-). Sincerely,
