Passport to World Band Radio® in Limbo

As with any good recipe, a range of ingredients has to come together if a
reference book is to succeed. Solid content is, of course, essential. But in
recent months other considerations have had an increased bearing on the
future of Passport to World Band Radio®. So it is that the 26th Edition of
Passport to World Band Radio® is being held in limbo.

Despite this, for now we are continuing to maintain the WorldScan® database
and uphold all proprietary material. Among other things, this should help
allow for an orderly return to production, under IBS' aegis or otherwise,
should conditions allow. For Passport® readers and our small team, alike, this
is a seminal moment. After all, Passport to World Band Radio® goes back a
quarter century and has had something like a million readers worldwide. But
the future has its own rhythm that confounds
prognostication. There may yet be more chapters to this story. Stay tuned.
