The reason for the ban on domestic broadcasting in the United States
is that the feds tend to be afraid of the attributes of shortwave and
the ability to transmit across an entire nation. They want Clear
Channel to own all the domestic broadcasters so they can broadcast
what they "approve of"


That's interesting. I figured neither the FCC nor Clear Channel had
much interest in shortwave. As far as I know, the FCC isn't doing
anything about SW programming content. And Clear Channel hasn't started
up any of the SW stations.


Even though WBCQ isn't transmitting "domestically," it's still mostly
listened to by people in the US.


That makes sense.
