Is it a coincidence that the rise of domestic SW came after the decline

of

the radio networks?

keyphrase doesn't compute. "Rise of domestic SW" ???

As far as I can tell, the FCC pulled out of the political content
regulation
business entirely. And the same line of thought would make the FCC
domestic
SW content ban unenforcable. Good for the FCC! Good for Rev. Norris,
too!

I think the FCC is at least cognizant enough to consider Domestic SWBC a
non-issue. Outside of a couple dozen radiofolk here, who would listen
to Domestic SW?

You have the key. No listeners.

Even in supposed hotbeds of SW listening, the use of SW is much exaggerated.
When I was working in South America in the 60's, I inspected the radio
ratings questionnaires for tens of thousands of people. I never, ever saw a
SW station reported in any city with local radio.
