International Shortwave Broadcast Radio Programming is different
form the customary AM and FM Radio that you may be use to :
It is NOT 24 Hours and 7 Days a Week on One Frequency.
Shortwave Listening is about trying to Catch (Tune and Hear)
a Moving Target.

THAT IS WHY SHORTWAVE LISENING (SWL) CAN BE :
* Fun for the Shortwave Listener (SWL) )
* Difficult for the Shortwave Listener (SWL) :-(
[ A Challenge and Achievement providing Enjoyment :]

First - Most International Shortwave Broadcasters do NOT Broadcast
for 24 Hours each Day every Day.

Second - Most International Shortwave Broadcasters broadcast at
different
Times during the 24 Day-Night Cycle to different Target
Areas/Countries;
and often use different Languages Depending on the Target Audience.

Third - Some International Shortwave Broadcasters Do NOT broadcast
on every published Frequency on every Day; and they often change
Frequencies and Times with out notice.
