Satellite-Internet killing shortwave?
 

Watch out there,if y'all listen to them kooks on shortwave radio or any
other kind of radios or tv,Honus the colunus will call y'all a kook.I
don't listen to those kooks.Sometimes if there is a guest speaker on the
freak show, www.coasttocoastam.com such as Charles R. Smith
www.softwar.net (and he is not a kook in my opinion) or someone else
who is sane and makes sense,I will tune in for a while untill I drift
off to sleep about an hour or so later.Sometimes I will set my RCA six
hour digital recorder that I bought at a wal fart store a couple of
years ago in front of a radio in my dining room and record the radio
show and listen to it later on.I record the Stan Major radio talk shows
too on 1180 WJNT.Stan Major is the first to have a radio talk show on
AM.

I'll only call you a kook if you believe them.

Oh gosh, I'm surprised that no one has ever asked this before.

Of course shortwave is doomed. So are newspapers, broadcast AM and FM,
books, television, movie theaters, etc. etc.

In fact, eventually satellite and internet will have to duke it out,
and so at least one of them is doomed too.

How about that?

You seem bitter.

I'll be the very first to admit that I'm weak. ;)

Xm ans sirius don't have much variety for news. Internet radio may
someday replace shortwave, once somebody invents a decent tuner so you
don't have to go hunt down and bookmark every station.

As opposed to hunting them down on an analog tuner and then writing
them down in a logbook, like we all did back in the day? Yeah, that
*sure* was easier, wasn't it?

Shortwave "Program Listening" is certainly doomed, but the people who
like to twiddle dials and find some distant, low power station will
always be around. There will just be fewer and fewer things to find,
eventually.

Especially if it takes one '5 minutes' to tune in!

Still LMAO,

Fewer and fewer major broadcasters, but I don't see any reason to think
there'll be fewer and fewer 'things' in general, especially if 'things'
includes utilities, military comms, etc.

Summoned you? Like in the old horror movies? With a big powerful voice,
"I SUMMON THEE!!!"
