of dxing. Thus, I want to introduce my poorself to the group. Please
forgive my errors in English.

I am 34 and have been listening to shortwave broadcasts since early
80s. I live in Istanbul, Turkey. My favorite was listening to pirate
radios and radio liberty broadcasts to central asia. In cold war
years, there were so many pirate radios targeting Turkey. Recently, as
far as I know, there is no pirate station on SW os MW in Turkish. I
think it
is because of more freedom of express we have nowadays. Almost every
opininon can be declared easily in newspapers, private radios stations
etc. when
compered with 80s. Probably, that's one of the reasons why the number
of shortwave broadcasters decreases all over the world, more widely
accepted "freedom". Another reason is the ideas and ideologies of the
people are not completely different, again when compered with 80s.
Hence, they don't burn with the desire to declare their own ideas. So
far,
Capitalism won the war and the need to long distance shortwave
broadcasts decreased (an example: A unique interpretation of
communism lived in Albania before the collapse of communism and radio
Tirana had a very powerful 3-4 hours of daily radio broadcast in
Turkish which could be listened all over Turkey like a local radio.
Now, R. Tirana broadcasts in Turkish is for 30 minitues. Because, they
don't have different things to tell to the world...

Anyway, I am very happy to find this group and have been a regular
visiter since the first day I have found it.
Regards, Oan.

Welcome to the group. I visited Istanbul in 1977 for a few days and had a
very nice time. Lots of things to see there, but not enough time.
