Tonight's Shortwave Schedule American Stations
Brother Stair on 3 frequencies, probably all day.
Pastor Peters on 3 frequencies, probably all day. Some bubbly Christian shows thrown in for the heck of it. 12.180 Idled, 5.050 Idled. Does it seem to you than the endless Christian content of American Stations is likely prematurely putting the death knell to American Broadcasts. Sure, if they are Christian Stations, they can program what they wish. But fire breathing preachers teaching damnation for anyone that commits the slightest sin (and all Catholics), this can't be good for Shortwave. You know, it would be possible to play some old time radio shows, comedies hopefully, without offending the sensibilities of people that desperately seek to assure that everyone, save the followers of their particular religion, is going to go to hell. It's oppressive to hear this stuff. I don't listen (maybe to some Pastor Peters and some Pastor Butch Paugh (whom also hates Catholics)), but strolling back and forth along the frequencies produces an endless cacophony of preachers spitting fire from the pulpit. I previously listened to John Stadtmiller and RBN, but this ****head decided to go off of shortwave altogether. Nice, thanks for the warning John, nice that you sold shortwave radios to the suckers. Now he's selling satellite receivers. Do I perceive another branch of suckers when John has another hissy fit and decides to stop broadcasting over satellite as well. John broadcasts to a paranoid audience and expects his listeners to download or listen live to his online shows everyday. Right. No tracking possible there. Oh, there's the Power Hour. How a 3 hour show was named the "Power Hour" is beyond me. Anyway, they are not tailored for the working man. Can't listen in the morning because I'm at work, can't listen at night, because I'm asleep. Same same with Alex Jones. They have the retired, shift workers, homebound, and housewives for an audience. That's all. Sure, I can download the Podcasts, but I like the Radio, I like to tolerate the vicissitudes of the transmission. I recently bought a High Definition TV, my life has not been enhanced. Now I am acutely aware of how bad Spock's (from Star Trek) complexion is, like I need to see deep pits in his face. Same with shortwave. It's not the shows, it the ability to listen to the shows on the radio. Without the radio interface, it's simply no fun. I write and research with my computer, I don't listen to it. I am not going to drag my computer from room to room to listen to John Stadtmiller's stupid internet shows. I listen to Pat Kiley, good show, and the Last Round-up when I remember to listen to it. Believe it or not, I listen to that ****head Rick Wiles, at least it's something other than the usual damnation stuff. Foreign radio? Patooie. (simulated spitting sound). My goodness, it's as bad as listening to NPR in this country. Don't any of them speak in a normal voice, why are they always on the verge of whispering? I have $2000 in shortwave equipment and nothing to listen to that holds my attention. I didn't expect shortwave to be so monotonous so quickly. If it weren't for WBCQ you wouldn't be able to listen to an American shortwave broadcaster for 5 minutes without hearing the usual salvation stuff. Regards to all. Artaud |
