WRNO in New Orleans tried something like that. I don't think it ever made
money. There's a bunch of domestic SW transmitters now, and nearly all the
programming consists of fringe evangalists, conspiracy theorists and
wierdos. It's my suspicion that these guys are far more entertaining for
the listener rather than for the broadcaster.


Preachers, preachers, preachers.

To the best of my knowledge, WWCR is profitable. I don't think you're
going to find shortwave broadcasting to be a route to riches though.
WWCR's owners had years of experience with similar programming on
regular AM stations before they tried shortwave.
