Too bad it took a war to wake up the government to the importance of a radio service like VOA.

But it's better than not waking up to its importance at all.

It's amazing.  It's like all these "useless"/"corrupt"/"inefficient"/"broken" government services that are being shutdown served some purpose or had some critical mission.  Who would have known?  ::)

Not so fast with those Farsi speakers, Poacher.  😬
Time to crank up the Radio Molvania Subterranean Service to get these people back to work and the news out.  You are bunker bomb proof at Monadnock, no?

If the VOA starts broadcasts to Canada and Greenland, those people will know things are getting real.

Dear Yankee Running Dog Nutmegger Airwave Pirate,

The staff of Molvania Calling DX Funtime Mailbag and Pennant Club respectfully reminds you that, despite not having a Farsi Service, The Voice of Molvania still carries both an Esperanto Service (on 148.5 Khz, fortnightly, from 1357 to 1413 GMT), and its much celebrated crop reports in both Molvanian and Aromanian (Vlach) (on 3330 khz, each gibbous moon, from 757 to 813 GMT).

Have to brush up on my West Greenlandic language.
