Since I don't live in the US, I find these kind of stations rather
interesting and jolly good fun to listen to; of course I am entirely aware
that they do not represent the views of the average US citizen, and at
many times they are quite the "crackpot fringe". I don't think that any
reasonably sophisticated European listener, at least, could think
otherwise.

But I, certainly, have a great deal of fun listening to fire-and-brimstone
pastors and the "apocalypse now, hoard-gold-and-buy-guns" broadcasts. It's
miles and miles away from commercial FM, and isn't that the whole point of
the SWL hobby?

My other interests are Tropical Band and anything from South America
(since my wife is from Brazil!)

I'm sure you are right.

Do the US SW broadcasters speak for the average American? No.

Are the average non-US listeners smart enough to figure that out? Yes.
