Some recognizable names in this article.  Good publicity for
shortwave; thanks to Mike Barraclough for flagging it!

It's easy and cheap -- and fun. You can hear and learn things that you would never find even if you work your search engine like a mule. From Swaziland to Paris to Havana, shortwave broadcasters can surprise an adventurous listener more than any MP3 playlist.

That part sums it up for me ;D

Peace!

The internet is useful.
You can tell ops Pirate or otherwise how well you're hearing them in almost real time.
