Fine I'll answer for him. This is not about short wave and it
doesn't belong in this new group. If I want to read about "other
means of communication" I'll join another news group.

This Newsgroup is about all things radio, DC to Daylight. Read the
original FAQ.


The satellite crap is NOT radio, you dimwitted, drug addled 'tard. I
can realize a passing mention of it from time to time, but dip****s
such as yourself tend to run it into the ground, along with your
other 'revolutionary' drivel.


DxAce has it right.

First off I don't read articles posted by people that advocate the over
throw of the USA government so I don't read David.

Second the news group subject matter is AMBCB, FMBCB and shortwave
DXing. The news group is primarily about short wave though. This will
be a huge surprise to some very confused individuals but the FAQ goes on
for pages talking about, get this, short wave. Now I know something
along the lines OF THE NEWS GROUPS NAME just might escape some peoples
attention but that is another story.

If you want to be on topic then post about a DX'ing experience,
antennas, radios, QSL's, your shack and equipment, propagation or
questions about the same.


Because some people are completely helpless here are the satellite news
groups listed on my news server.

The second one is probably what some Trolls want. Go post your off crap
to this news group David. I'm sure the people using that news group will
welcome you.

If you read into the spirit of what was written in the FAQ, it is
obvious they did not mean to include satellite radio. If the FAQ were
written today with Sirius and XM present, I would expect satellite still
not be included. This is clearly a supposition on my part but on the
other side inclusion looks to me to be a greater stretch.

Besides the news group "alt.radio.satellite" directly addresses this
topic and David is already posting to that news group so this is
Trolling plain and simple and not an honest discussion.

Also a perusal of David's posts to "alt.radio.satellite" shows him to be
on topic.

I am a Sirius subscriber, and I often listen to Sirius in the car, as I
tend to do a bit of long-distance driving. In my car, I also have a
Sony XR-4950X car stereo which has shortwave coverage. I like the BBC
WS, CBC Radio One and World Radio Network coverage on Sirius, as well
as the various public radio offerings (e.g. PRI). For me, though,
Sirius doesn't supplant shortwave. I still do a lot of shortwave
listening while in the car. Last night, for instance, Sirius got a
rest; I listened to R. Bulgaria and R. Cairo while on the road. Heard
a bit of R. Burkina (5030 kHz), as well, in the earlier evening.

I'm in this hobby for both the programming content of the various int'l
broadcasters AND for the thrill of chasing weak DX. I'm guessing that
this is true for most of us in this group. Sirius is a convenient
means of accessing various programs, but ultimately, Sirius is very
much like a cable subscription. It's a nice service, but it's not an
all-consuming hobby in the way that shortwave is for so many of us in
this group.

I listen to satellite radio, sure; but shortwave is my passion.

The BBC in the car?


I borrowed a Sirius receiver from my employer for a holiday trip from
Toronto to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, a distance of some 1600 km (1000
miles) each way, roughly 35 hours on the road, and enjoyed listening
alternately to CBC Radio One on Sirius 137 and BBCWS on Sirius 141. It was
pretty much uninterrupted, except for the tunnels through the Blue Ridge
Mountains. While the audio quality sucked at the low bitrates used, I was
surprised at how much the distortion was masked by car noise and how
accustomed I became.

Now to keep dxAce from complaining that this is not a posting about
shortwave, I took my KA-1103 along with every intention of doing some SWL -
never turned it on! Seems to me that alternatives to shortwave as a means of
delivery are legitimate topics for rrs, since so many users of shortwave are
migrating to other means of communication. ;-)

Well, I'll agree with you and with my earlier posting that it's no
replacement for shortwave.

That said, for the listener to int'l new/info broadcasts, there's a bit
more than just BBC and CBC Radio One on Sirius. The World Radio
Network (WRN) on Sirius carries English language programming of the
following broadcasters:

R. Netherlands
Kol Israel

China R. Int'l
R. Sweden
R. Australia

R. Guangdong (weekends)
R. Prague
KBS
R. Romania Int'l
R. New Zealand
RTE Ireland
Deutsche Welle
Vatican R.
R. Slovakia Int'l
R. Polonia
R. Budapest

Glenn Hauser's World of Radio is also aired weekly on the WRN.

CBC Radio One airs CBC R. Overnight from 1:00 to 3:00 am EST.
Programming includes contributions from the following broadcasters:

BBC WS
R. Polonia
Channel Africa
R. Prague
R. Netherlands
Deutsche Welle
R. Sweden
R. Australia

Also, the PRI channel on Sirius carries an hour of Deutsche Welle news
from 9:00PM to 10:00 PM EST. I believe, too, that a CBC program or two
is carried on the PRI channel.

A bit more than just CBC Radio One & BBC. I've not visited the Sirius
website; they would do well to expand on their int'l news content, if
those two were all that was displayed when you visited the site.
Perhaps their emphasis is on the music content (?)...

you mentally retarded dimwit.


So if a transmitter is up in the sky, it is not radio any more?


Once it's up there on a geo-stationary satellite it's not 'radio'. It's
satellite crap. And it's sure as hell not short wave, and it's not medium wave
either.

At what wavelength do signals cease being "radio" and become something else?

No, you can't. It was on "Write On" a couple of weeks ago that they
are now sharing the Prague transmissions with a Czech language station
and are limited in their hours.


I said when I *was* in Prague - in 2002.
Past tense.

Any similarity between Chuck Harder supporters and the monkeys in the
zoo, is an insult to the latter!

Why? Why? Why?
 
I just wish Chuck Harder would retire from talk radio. He's a very,
very sick guy. Anyone who's been listening to him since Katrina knows
this.
If there are any doctors out there who listen to him, please contact
him and convince him to do the right thing and hang up his microphone.
That isn't too much to ask, is it?
Whatever happened to human compassion? Isn't there anyone out there who
can take Chuck's place?
Ed Shiflett and Vic Ives, how about it?

cuhulin,

In the past month, Chuck Harder has been off the air - and in the
hospital - most of the time, save for two days last week (April 3 and
April 6); on April 6, he said that he had caught (his words) "the
flesh-eating bug" (necrotizing fasciitis), an invariably fatal,
fulminant streptococcus infection. If so, he probably got it in the
hospital; there are lots and lots of ugly, nasty bugs there.
Today (April 12), he's still off the air; Talk Star Radio Network is
re-running his interviews back in early February with former Reform
Party VP candidate Pat Choate and CFR member Peter G. Peterson.
You mentioned earlier that you like Bo Gritz. You might do a little
research and find out where Bo Gritz is on the radio dial because let's
face it: Chuck Harder won't be around much longer.
He's dying.
You and Chuck Harder have repeatedly reprimanded me to "get a life."
I'm glad I still have a life to get. But what about Chuck Harder?
