"pak" wrote in message ... i just started listening to shortwave again after being away from it for aobut 10 years. I seem to notice that the short wave bands are totally dominated by nothing but religious subjects and shows. Am I just listening at the wroing time or wrong bands or does anyone agree with this observation? Your not wrong. Short-wave radio is the "Dollar Store" of broadcast media. As such, only the greatest of kooks and paranoids, who would never be carried by mainstream media and could never afford airtime on the same are on short-wave. To be fair however this is more of a USA phenomena. Foreign short-wave is still for the most part a good source of news. Domestic USA short-wave however is nothing but a vast wasteland of every conceivable religious nut, racists and misfit goof ball which can be imagined. (they are also very amusing as most of em believe their own BS) Think of it as the point where roller derby and the tamborine-bangin fundie church on the corner on the other-side-of-the tracks across town gather behind a microphone. ; ) |
