Default WBCQ ?

I've been a ham for over 30 years but a real newbie to SW. I've been
listening at times to WBCQ (7.415) and am curious if this is just a SW
station that rents airtime to various people to express their views or
just what. From what little I listened this week I heard everything
from the coming one world government to Warren Buffet manipulating the
stock market.

TIA .... Gary

Yes, they rent out airtime.

hence, get " Off The Grid"

Yes, WBCQ sells cheap airtime. But so do a lot of other U.S.
shortwave stations. The difference is that WBCQ's clientele isn't 99%
religious. All the other surviving private stations were founded for
religious purposes and that's what they mainly do. WBCQ was founded
by the biggest pirate on the east coast -- in fact, exactly how he got
a license has never been explained as far as I know.
