The BBC is a government chartered orgainzation, and financed by
government taxes.


It is financed by the TV licence fee, not Govt taxes.


And that license fee is a tax by the government, just as a vehicle
registration fee is a tax by the government in the US.

the car's FM radio.


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.

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. ;-)


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.

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.

It's radio, Sweetheart. Uses transmitters, antennas, request lines
and bumper stickers.

Just because it doesn't conform to your quaint notions don't mean it
ain't real.

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.

DX Ace is a horse's ass. You are a raving paranoid loony. I have
never advocated anything not specified and codified in the
Constitution. I mean that in a friendly way...

'' What is rec.radio.shortwave for?

As stated above this group was created for USENETers to have a place
to discuss
the radio monitoring hobby. This group is not moderated, however
'serious'
arguments and any kind of flame wars are strongly discouraged. That
is not to
say that genuine disagreement and discussion of differing opinions is
not
welcome. We only ask that you keep the tone friendly, and in the
spirit of
international cooperation upon which the hobby is founded.

This group is intended to be a place where ANY radio monitoring topic
can and
should be discussed. We are happy to hear from posters who listen to
any part
of the radio or microwave spectrum, from DC to daylight. We discuss
topics of
almost any kind, ranging from (but not limited to) shortwave
broadcasting,
DXing small or distant shortwave stations, utility and teletype
monitoring,
military eavesdropping, station schedules, QSLing sw broadcasters,
spectrum
usage, equipment design and modifications, antennas, receiver reviews
and
recommendations, and many more.

Despite what the newsgroup name might imply, we definitely DO NOT
limit
discussions to shortwave only. Any radio-related topics are
welcome.''
