Part of the fun of listening to shortwave radio is getting different perspectives on things. Not that you can rely on everything you hear, but it's interesting to find out how different people feel about things and how they try to convince others to think like them or do what they want. What you hear is called propaganda, which may be all true or all false. Usually, it's a mix of both. Even a balanced news report can be propaganda. Covering all sides of a dispute and showing all the good and bad aspects of a situation may not seem like an attempt to spread an opinion. But it may be an attempt to export values that welcome discussion and allow dissent. My shortwave radio intro is online. Jen mia pagxo pri kurtonda radiofonio haveblas. The Transmitter Documentation Project has many links, schedules, etc. that I don't have the space or time to organize here. When you make notes about your shortwave listening, you might want to use the SINPO code. I'll put my own shortwave reception summaries on another page. Here, I'm just offering lists of online news & info sources from various countries. I've tried to keep this list mostly limited to shortwave broadcasters with online services, but I've included a few other services.
The above list is not meant to be all-inclusive. The inclusion or omission of any particular site or service is not a reflection of my views. It's just the way the cookie crumbles. I can't possibly find every worthwhile site by myself. If you know of one I might include above, please contact me. |
