Shortwave book lies about scheduling!
Yesterday I picked up a 2001 copy of Passport to World Band Radio©.
I can't expresss my disappointment enough. It seems every shown frequency I can tune in is being broadcast NOW (2004AD) and NOT from 2001AD. Why waste so many resources on information for the 2001 broadcast year when the programmes simply aren't available? This sort of fraudulent presentation would NEVER be allowed on any other life supporting planet that *I* know of..shameful... It's occurred to me the radio may be at fault, so I'll be checking the Chronosynch© circuitry later today. Knowing that NO Chronosynch© crystal has ever failed before is giving little hope, however. ©mike II -- __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ © / /\ / /\ / /\ / /\ / /\ / /\ / /\ / / / /\ \/ /\ \/ /\ \/ / /_/ \/_/ \/_/ \/_/ \/_/ \/_/ \/_/ \/_/ ©..let the cat out to reply.. ©Densa International ©'Think tanks cleaned cheap' |
Morning,
Question, Why would want/care what is posted in a 2001 copy of PWBR??? I have used the book all over the world for years and found it to be great and a lot better then that other book (I think World TV & Radio) -- Burr Grundigs, 200, YB400, 650 & 800 Drake SW3 Scanners, BC245 & 895 Sangean DT 110 for Tract & Ball Games Ont, Ca 34.03.16Nx117.36.21W RC, Ca. 35.35.82Nx117.41.57W "m II" wrote in message news:aNC2d.39661$KU5.31098@edtnps89...

Why did you get a 2001 copy?
Passport To World Band Radio is an annual publication. This years issue 2004 plainly on the cover! In my opinion a superb publication, if not the best. Did you buy this from Ebay? ; ) "m II" wrote in message news:aNC2d.39661$KU5.31098@edtnps89... Yesterday I picked up a 2001 copy of Passport to World Band Radio©.

Just ordered mine off of Amazon. I ordered the 2005 which is supposed to be
out around the end of next month. It was about U.S. $16. I have been told that you need to keep an updated copy as sometimes frequencies and schedules change. Off of Amazon website: "Passport to World Band Radio, New 2005 Edition : Number One Seller, Year after Year (Passport to World Band Radio)" Magne;Paperback; $16.07 "Vincent Everett" wrote in message ...

Perhaps the reason you can find programs in the 2004 edition but not the 2001 edition is that... (Thinking really, really hardy) The schedule changed. |

I used to think he was a humorless anarchistic nutcase prone to relying on goofy websites, but I've since realized he's not humorless at all. |
