Is this available on shortwave please?


I'm not sure if your question is serious, or if you asked it to imply
the thread is off topic.

Mike has a link to the website. I'm sure he'll be a participant in one of
the upcoming Air America discussions.


In case it's the latter, if you look at the "welcome to RRS message that
started the group, you'll find rec.radio.shortwave is intended for
discussion of anything related to the radio monitoring hobby, including
MW, VHF and UHF.




Yes, that's what the charter says, and mo

"This group is intended to be a place where ANY radio monitoring topic can
and
should be discussed. We are happy to hear from posters who listen to any
part
of the radio or microwave spectrum, from DC to daylight. We discuss topics
of
almost any kind, ranging from (but not limited to) shortwave broadcasting,
DXing small or distant shortwave stations, utility and teletype monitoring,
military eavesdropping, station schedules, QSLing sw broadcasters, spectrum
usage, equipment design and modifications, antennas, receiver reviews and
recommendations, and many more."

"Despite what the newsgroup name might imply, we definitely DO NOT limit
discussions to shortwave only. Any radio-related topics are welcome."

If Mike were trying to netcop the group, I'm sure he'd find some other items
to go after, such as the rude posters and the flamers:

"As stated above this group was created for USENETers to have a place to
discuss
the radio monitoring hobby. This group is not moderated, however 'serious'
arguments and any kind of flame wars are strongly discouraged. That is not
to
say that genuine disagreement and discussion of differing opinions is not
welcome. We only ask that you keep the tone friendly, and in the spirit of
international cooperation upon which the hobby is founded."

And I'm also sure all the netcops out there are quite familiar with the
rec.radio.shortwave charter and FAQ:
