For a brief period during the late '90s, I owned a DX-392 radio
and absolutely loved listening to all the bizarre and batty stuff
that I could get my hands on.

Programs like "the Hal Turner Show" (impassioned anti-semetic and
anti-government propaganda interlaced with endless new world order
conspiracies) and Radio Habana (which sometimes seemed to erupt
into nothing but screaming announcers blasting the "imperialistic
American DOGS") were my favorites.

This one requires a little explanation. From my radio page (much, much
out of date) is this comment:

Shortwave Broadcaster from Manchester, TN.*
[was WGTG, then WWFV, now WWRB]

The location may also have changed, Frank Dresser and I tend to follow
the freaks but I've moved + have health problems so Frank is
undoubtedly /much/ more up-to-date than I.

On the last mentioned station; if I correctly remember:

WGTG - World Glory to God

WWFV - World Wide Freedom's Voice

WWRB - World Wide Religious Broadcasting

This is, along with WBCQ, the only interesting stations in and of
themselves. WBCQ is Allan Weiner who is from the old "pirate" days and
is just "nice to listen to" as in "one of the good guys". In nearly all
comparisons with other broadcasters, Weiner would come in first as an
old 70's guy (I betcha he knows all of the words to all of the verses
of "Kumbaya" [not a slam, I do, too]. BUT, WAIT! There's mo

Cut to Brother R. G. Stair (as in "Stairway to Heaven"). You may know
Bro Stair from your adventures in the 1990's. [My own break in time was
from a 38B and a 54A in the late 50's and early 60's so I had no idea
of who he was/is.]

[cut to somebody's biography-description of Bro Stair]

Anyway, Brother Stair has come darn close to keeping radio stations on
the air by his tremendous of amount of air time purchased.

Cut to "David Frantz", owner and operator of WWRB (under the
above-mentioned various incarnations).

[Sidebar: If you're familiar with Milton William Cooper - generally
"Bill Cooper" - he and Allan Weiner made a mighty defense - on this
newsgroup - of Cooper's show as WBCQ and Cooper's show were crankin'
up. Cooper - later and in most folks' opinions - committed "suicide by
cop".]

So: back to David Frantz (sometimes spelled "Franz"). And "Frantz
Rants" ("Franz Rants" or "Franz Rantz").

These were short broadcasts (5-10 minutes each) in which - most of the
time - Frantz was temper-tantruming the "militia/pay-triots" when they
weren't, apparently, paying their bills, and religious broadcasters
when they weren't, apparently, paying /their/ bills.

Franz used ta be on this ng although he denied it was he (which was
pretty stupid). This was, iirc, about the time he took his radio
station to SSB! Again, iirc, not all broadcasts but darn close to it.
[At the time, I had a DX-398 (909) and DX-392 (818) and the 392 is
exceptionally good for SSB, so I listened toi quite a few of the SSB
programs. Eventually, the SSB episode didn't last terribly long.]

From somewhere I have a recollection that Frantz built that station for
Brother Staie but Stair, apparently, wanted the "pink slip" and Frantz
was smart enough to refuse.

So that's a little [grin].
